The Unveiling
Sep 17 2023 • Cedrick Baker, Dan Kent, Emily Morrison, Greg Boyd, Jeremy Duncan, Shawna Boren
This series is a deep dive into the Book of Apocalypse. Wait. Don’t remember that from your Bible’s table of contents? That’s because the Greek word “apocalypse” means “disclosing” or “uncovering” or “bringing to light,” and our English Bibles translate it as “revelation.” The Book of Revelation is less about the end of the world and more about the unveiling of truth and unmasking of lies. And most importantly, it is the apocalypse (unveiling) of Jesus, his bride the Church, the enemy of the Kingdom of God, and the hope of the world. Come join us for an apocalypse (zombies not included).
Sermons in this series:
Our world surrounds us with despair and darkness, and we long for a place of hope. Dan ties this reality into Revelation 8 and 9, where the trumpet judgments bring destruction to the earth. He looks for and finds hope in the midst of the destruction, showing us how we can hold on to hope in the midst of chaos.
Topics: Hope,
Identity in Christ,
Transformation
In this sermon, Greg Boyd explains the meaning of the seven trumpet judgments and how they apply to our modern context. Specifically, Greg addresses the image of the seals on believers’ foreheads, demonstrating how God has sealed us, thereby giving us confidence in the character of God to complete the work that he has begun in us.
Topics: Discipleship,
End Times,
Judgment
In the apocalyptic scene of Revelation 8, the prayers of God’s people rise up to God. The church of the first century and the church of today is to be a people of prayer. In this sermon, Shawna Boren calls us into a fresh understanding of what prayer is and invites us into a fresh experience of relating to God through it.
Topics: Hope,
Justice,
Prayer
In this sermon, Greg Boyd addresses the nature of the final judgment and why the New Testament emphasizes the importance of crying out for God to set all things right with his coming.

This sermon by Dan Kent helps us understand the meaning of repentance and why it is so crucial to our walk with Jesus. In it, we discover how we misunderstand what repentance is and see how repentance is a path to true freedom.
Topics: Repentance,
Sin,
Transformation
This sermon brings us back to the book of Revelation, and in it Greg calls our attention to a singular verse, one that speaks of silence in the throne room.
Topics: Presence of God,
Worship
Cedrick Baker brings a message on the victory that comes by the blood of Jesus. This victory is more than a legal declaration of personal cleansing of sin, it is an experience by those who embrace a life of cruciform participation. Following Jesus is not merely about belief; it costs us our lives, as it did the martyrs in John’s vision.
Topics: Holy Spirit,
Pain & Suffering,
Salvation
In this sermon, Greg challenges us to open our minds up to the idea that Jesus, the Good Shepherd, speaks to his sheep. This means that God speaks in a way that we can hear and follow him to the cross. Greg then explains the way that the voice of God works and how we can learn to listen.
Topics: God's Will,
Prayer,
Presence of God
This sermon addresses the meaning of worship and what causes a person to express their praise to God. Greg also explains why worship is so crucial to our life in God and what it means to worship God in our daily lives with how we act on a day-to-day basis.
Topics: Discipleship,
Imagination,
Worship
In this sermon, Dan Kent helps us understand the meaning of the proclamation “salvation belongs to our God.” While we might assume salvation is about personal sin and guilt, Dan demonstrates that it is much more extensive than that. He shows us that salvation is centered around God’s work to establish the rightful King of all creation.
Topics: Faith,
Grace,
Salvation
