God’s Picture Book
Understanding Revelation Is Easier Than You Think

We might think that properly reading and interpreting biblical book of Revelation is beyond us. With all of the strange seeming images, we should just leave it to the experts, right?
Dr. Tommy Keene’s answer is a simple, “No!”
The Revelation of John is not an encoded cryptic prophecy or an impossible mystery. It’s a book of pictures—beautiful and powerful pictures.
The pictures in Revelation teach truth, provoke action, evoke emotion, and glorify Jesus Christ.
In this conference we will look at the ordinary tools—tools that you already own—that God has given us to better understand these pictures.
