Is This The Time? Interpreting the Mystery of Revelation
This resource provides a much-needed, truly biblical perspective on what is arguably the most difficult book of the Bible.
Presented by Dr. Craig Koester, professor of New Testament at Luther Seminary, this video series helps us discover Revelation's message of God's love and hope for the world, shrouded in symbolism, prophecy, conflict and fear. Mining the rich material from his popular course, workshops and books.
Koester's intimate, personal and direct explication makes for a dynamic and engaging learning experience. The teacher's mission: “I want you to believe all of what God wants you to believe about Revelation." Dr. Koester uses the rich histories of art and music to tell the story of the entire Book of Revelation. He examines the sensationalistic interpretations of Revelation and related apocalyptic theories, showing why these approaches are problematic.

Praise for Is This The Time?:
The Book of Revelation is either the most underread or misunderstood book of the Bible for most of us. Dr. Craig Koester, Professor of New Testament at Luther Seminary, however, serves as a welcoming tour guide in Is This The Time? Interpreting the Mystery of Revelation to lead us through a fascinating study of this book that served as a source of comfort and hope to early Christians and serves today as the basis for much of our Christian hymnody and liturgy. Whether this series is used for individual or group study, it will become an important part of every congregation's library.
