Season 2 | Episode 4
The last book of the Bible is a letter written to seven churches in the first century. These churches are not symbolic of the various scenarios and players in an end times drama, but were real communities facing real challenges in a real time and place.

Season 2 | Episode 3
Who was John? What world did he step into and why should that shape our understanding of Revelation? Many believe that he was John the disciple of Jesus. However, evidence seems to point in a different direction. What we do know, however, is that Jesus used him in a powerful way. The last book of the Bible is a revelation to John!

Season 2 | Episode 2
How does Revelation "Reveal Jesus?" The opening line of the book makes a compelling claim: "A Revelation of Jesus Christ." This is the purpose of the last book of the Bible, but we often struggle to understand how the Jesus of the Gospels is anything like the image of him we see in Revelation. When we step into the ancient world, these struggles start to resolve.

Season 1, Episode 8 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this episode, Kurt explores the mysterious and infamous number in the bible: 666. It is the topic of horror films and turn-or-burn preachers alike. But what did it mean in the first century? What significance does it have for us today or in the future? Time to get our so-called anti-christ conversation on... hurry, assemble the Tribulation Force!

Season 1, Episode 7 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this episode, Kurt continues to look at Revelation in broad sweeps. Specifically, he looks at the 'dragon' (devil) and the two 'beasts' who show up in popular conversation about Revelation. Who are they for John and his audience? You might be surprised that the beasts are likely not some future deceivers.

Season 1, Episode 6 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this episode, Kurt Willems explores the imperial cult, the gods of the Roman Empire, and how they influence the 7 cities in Revelation. The followers of Jesus have to navigate how to give the slaughtered Lamb their full allegiance, when the forces around them seek to take captive their imaginations. Worship anchors them either in the ideology of Rome or in the way of Jesus.

Season 1, Episode 5 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this episode, Kurt Willems looks at Revelation through its broad themes and genre. It is apocalyptic literature and must be read as such. It is a book of resistance and hope in the midst of oppression. Civil religion wants our imagination; this allegiance of the mind belong only to the Slaughtered Lamb.

Season 1, Episode 4 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this episode, Kurt Willems talks about a self-proclaimed "Christian Numerologist" and multi-failed rapture predictor, David Meade. The conspiracy theories continue to abound, especially when it comes to using numbers and constellations in the sky to predict a rapture. But here's the deal: apocalyptic language doesn't function like that in the Hebrew Scriptures or when the New Testament utilizes it.

Season 1, Episode 3 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this episode, Kurt Willems considers the real life of John, the author of the book of Revelation. It is quite plausible that John was a refugee in a literal sense. He was part of a Jewish group of Jesus followers in Jerusalem, who were forced to flee for their lives to Asia Minor when Rome came in and eventually destroyed Jerusalem. What would this backstory mean for John, now 20-something years after the dramatic events? No wonder he as no love for the ways of Empire!

Season 1, Episode 1 (Spring Season, 2018)
In this first episode of Rapture Drill, Kurt Willems introduces the motivations for a show like this. Why do we need a podcast that is devoted to such a controversial and confusing topic? What is a "rapture drill" anyway? Why do so many people feel the need to prepare for the end? Yep, we need to answer the 'why' before we get into the 'what.'
