When the difficulties of life suggest that evil and chaos reign, we need to see that God occupies the throne in heaven and rules this world. Revelation: Hope in the Darkness by Scotty Smith reminds us that in troubled times our hope is in our champion Savior who is with us and will one day make all things right.

In this guide, author Scotty Smith give us a unique perspective on the end times that maps onto modern-day issues and problems. There is a battle raging against Jesus and his people, but be assured: Jesus wins. Though the world's kingdoms entice and persecute us, the gospel still advances. The Lamb is on the throne, and he alone is worthy of our worship. We can anticipate with great joy the final victory of Jesus and the wedding of the Lamb. Our destiny is renewal and new life, rejoicing with our Savior in the New Jerusalem.
"Over twenty years ago Scotty's Unveiled Hope had a significant impact on my life and ministry. I now heartily endorse its refreshing updated presentation in the amazingly useful study guide, Revelation: Hope in the Darkness. It is clear, concise, gospel-focused, accessible, and a great tool for Christians seeking to understand and find real, substantive hope in this final book of the Bible. The excellent pedagogical approach for small group study follows the biblical text with an insightful article and useful heart-focused exercises leading to group discussion and prayer. Scotty's perspective transcends millennial preferences in a respectful and unifying way that calls believers to engage the world courageously rather than fearfully escape it."
Mark Dalbey, President, Covenant Theological Seminary, St Louis, MO
"Scotty and I have been walking together as brothers and friends for over thirty years. Our friendship has been forged by the journey into our brokenness and growing in a deeper understanding and experience of the riches of the gospel. Scotty's sermons on the book of Revelation, and now this new study guide, Revelation: Hope in the Darkness, capture so many of the freeing and transforming things we have learned together, shaping his writing and influencing many of my songs."
Steven Curtis Chapman, Artist; author; cofounder of Show Hope
"What I love most about Scotty is the way he helps me see Jesus more clearly and love him more deeply. He does this and more in this study of Revelation. In an uncertain time, and through an often difficult and confusing book, he masterfully shows how Revelation, like all of Scripture, is ultimately about the grace and glory of Jesus. I heartily recommend it to you!"
Sammy Rhodes, RUF Campus Minister; author of Beloved and Broken
"Scotty Smith walks us through the book of Revelation, helping us to see the unassailable hope we have in the Lamb who wins. This study guide is invaluable in guarding the reader against common pitfalls and steering them in the direction of resting and delighting in the finished work of Christ. Its questions and exercises will enable groups to apply the truths of this wonderful book deeply into their lives."
Ralph Cunnington, Pastor, City Church, Manchester, England
"Revelation: Hope in the Darkness by Scotty Smith combines the heart of a pastor, the biblical knowledge of a seminary professor, and the imagination of an artist to guide you and your group through one of the most fascinating but often misunderstood books of the Bible. The teaching content is inspiring, the tone is gracious, the format easy to use, and the questions stir up a deeper longing to get to know Jesus better."
Jim Thomas, Lead Pastor, The Village Chapel, Nashville, TN
"Nothing is more vital to our intimacy with Christ than spending time with him in his Word. But a lot of Bible studies stop short and only deal with concepts and ideas and never really speak to our hearts. That's why I'm so excited about this series. Each author writes about the unique gospel insights he or she has gained from Scripture and has created a small group study that will help people actually encounter Christ and be changed by the power of his grace. God has used this material powerfully in my life, marriage, and ministry, and that is my prayer for you as well."

Can’t go wrong with this one. Really breaks down and gets into Revelations. Gives me a lot to think about. I will definitely go back to skim through now and again

After doing the Jonah study. (We all loved) we had high expectations and we have found ourselves disappointed. Started out great, but then was not helpful to learn and understand this book of the Bible. Would not recommend if you want to learn about the text.
I highly recommend this study guide for small group bible study. The content is excellent and easy to follow. Pastor Scotty Smith has done a marvelous job of helping us to see Jesus in the book of Revelation.
Revelation is a much misunderstood book. In this helpful and straightforward 14-lesson study guide, Pastor Scotty Smith unfolds the main point of Revelation: it is an “apokalypsis,” which by the way does not mean some scary, end of the world Terminator-like scenario, but rather, “unveiling.” Revelation, as Smith helpfully explains, is the unveiling of Jesus by Jesus to John. In this book, we see Jesus as the Savior who brings order to chaos, defeating evil and returning to bring the final flourishing of the new heavens and the new earth.
