The book of Revelation can be terrifying. Confusing. Overwhelming. But in this video series, Shane simplifies Revelation by taking you step-by-step through the proper tools to engage the text. He answers questions like: “What is prophecy?”, “What do we do with the Mark of the Beast?”, and even “What about the rapture?”  Shane is a young, engaging Ozark Christian College professor who was recognized by Theology Degrees Online as one of the “100 Remarkable Professors & Scholars Theology Students Should Know About”. He knows how to make complicated things simple. Miss a week? Not a problem…this series is available online each week so you can stay up to date.

Christians, and especially Christian parents, often feel overwhelmed by culture’s attack on our faith. This elective will seek to answer questions like how we got the Bible we use today, is it reliable, why God allows suffering and evil, and more.  Christians need to prepare themselves to answer their kids’ questions, as well as those of co-workers, family, friends and foes. We may even struggle with these questions ourselves!
