""Insightful and inviting . . .

This is Eugene at his pastoral best.""-Rev. Dr. Glenn Packiam, associate senior pastor at New Life Church and author ofBlessed Broken Given

The book of Revelation is filled with angels and dragons, fantastic beasts and golden cities, bottomless pits and mysterious numbers. It's dramatic, sure-but what exactly does that have to do with the tests we face today?

Actually, a lot.

When the apostle John penned the book of Revelation, believers lived in a time of deception and injustice. But his message doesn't just reflect their cries for things to be made right; it reveals heaven's perspective of the bigger picture.

In this never-before-published work, Eugene H. Petersontracesthe dramatic symbolism found in John's letters to the seven churches, uncoveringChrist's instructions to these ancient communities. Along the way, encounterseven key tests, of our love, suffering, truth, holiness, reality, witness, and commitment, tests from Christ that can deepen our faith and even shape our future.

This Hallelujah Banquetis your personal invitation to grow deep and begin living now in a generous, abundant, and hopeful reality in Christ.
