We supposedly live in an enlightened age, yet millions of people believe the most bizarre things about the end of the world. Much of this end-times theology is based on faulty biblical interpretation. Some of it can even be dangerous. Is the Bible really intended to give us a playby-play of coming events? The Future? is a series of essays focused on eschatology and Christian hope. Offering an alternative to doomsday theology and apocalyptic literalism, Brad McIntyre explains: God in history Messianic hope Daniel and Revelation Jesus and the end of the world The second coming of Christ Paul and Israel The millennium Fellowship with the dead The Rapture Christian Zionism Whether you're suffering from apocalyptic burnout or you're a run-of-the-mill Christian who is curious about Bible prophecy, you will find comfort and sustenance in McIntyre's clear interpretation of God's word. About the Author Brad McIntyre, MA, MDiv, is a full-time hospice chaplain in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and an adjunct faculty member at Silver Lake College, Manitowoc, Wisconsin. He is the author of We Don't Live in Disneyland: Reflections and Essays on Religion and Faith.
