“Shane Wood opens our eyes to just how tantalizingly thin the veil between heaven and earth has become in our incarnate Lord. Meditate on this book; it models a combination of scholarly depth and spiritual direction.” Hans Boersma, professor at Nashotah House Theological Seminary in Wisconsin and author of Pierced by Love “It truly is difficult to overstate how poetic, prophetic, and breathtaking this accessible journey through John’s Apocalypse is. Not only did it help me read the revelation of Jesus Christ better historically, theologically, and exegetically, but I walked away with a deeper love for God.”
