    Scot McKnight - Revelation as a call for Wisdom, Worship, and for all of us to Witness

    Dr. Scot McKnight joined host Ross Cochran for an extensive conversation around the book of Revelation. They discuss how the way we view Revelation influences are discipleship, why so many churches can get this wrong, and how Christians today are meant to respond to the oppressive and corrupt forces we see in our world today. SHOW NOTES The Encounter Faith Podcast is dedicated to creating space to slow down and dive deeper into the critical conversations we’re having every week at Good Shepherd. We fundamentally believe that you cannot encounter the risen Lord unchanged, and through the replays of our Sunday Sermons and conversations with our pastors and community leaders, we are prayerfully pursuing the author and the perfecter of our faith, together. We’d love to meet you! Email us, check out our website, and come worship with us! We are moving forward in faith. Join us. Watch Scot's message from Sunday May 31 here.
