Overview

Avoiding futuristic flights and fanciful interpretations, NO LONGER AT EASE delves deeply into what John, the author of Revelation, believed imperative if 1st century congregations were to be faithful to God in the midst of the Roman Empire. This book also questions what faithfulness means for 21st century American Christians when living in the world's first borderless empire. The work is an educational resource for local church adult Bible studies, seminary students taking classes in Revelation, and travelers to Turkey in the footsteps of John. It combines archaeological, literary, social-political-economic, and theological insights to illuminate the Letters to the Seven Churches in Revelation 2-3. Concise yet filled with content, NO LONGER AT EASE is written in language making the least read and the most misunderstood Biblical book accessible to laypersons.
