In this solo episode, Mike Neglia shares the story behind Calvary Cork’s upcoming teaching series through the book of Revelation.

Many Christians feel unsure about Revelation. Some avoid it because of the strange imagery and symbolism. Others associate it with fear, speculation, or complicated end-times charts. But Revelation was not given to confuse the church or frighten believers. It was given to reveal Jesus Christ and to encourage Christians living in uncertain times.

In this episode, Mike explains why he believes now is the right time for our church to study this book together. He shares several unexpected moments that led him to this decision, including attending a conference where Revelation was taught in an encouraging way, discovering John Lennox’s work connecting Revelation to modern questions about technology and the future, and a conversation with a friend who admitted that the state of the world has left her anxious and unable to sleep.

Those moments prompted an important realisation: Christians have a hope-filled worldview. Revelation reminds us that Jesus is ruling, history is not out of control, and the story of the world ends with the victory of Christ.

Mike also explains the approach that will guide the series. Rather than getting lost in speculation or timelines, each chapter will be explored with one central question in mind:

What does this chapter reveal about Jesus Christ?

Listeners are encouraged to read ahead as the church journeys through the book together, approximately one chapter each week. Revelation is rich with symbolism and Old Testament imagery, but its central message is simple and powerful: Jesus wins.

If you’ve ever felt intimidated by Revelation, this series is an invitation to rediscover it as a book of hope, worship, and confidence in Christ.
