Earlier this week, previous GCYM Conversations guest Mark Howard published an article at The Gospel Coalition on teaching the book of Revelation to youth. In line with that and in anticipation of his workshop on the same subject at the Rooted Conference in about a month, Mark joined Faris to talk through why and how you can teach Revelation to your students.
Mark currently works with ELAM Ministries, a fantastic organization that works to help strengthen churches in Iran. He also has over five years’ experience as a youth pastor, and is on both the Board of Advisors and Conference Steering Committee for Rooted.
At the end of the conversation, Faris and Mark talked about a few helpful books if you’re studying or teaching Revelation. So for your convenience, here are Amazon links to all of them:
- Vern Poythress, The Returning King (you can get the full text of this one for free!)
- N. T. Wright, Revelation for Everyone
- G. K. Beale, The Book of Revelation (NIGTC Commentary)
- Richard Bauckham, The Theology of the Book of Revelation
If you’re interested in more of what Elam does, check out Iran30, a 30-day prayer guide for the Iranian church. Also, for more preview of the Rooted Conference, check out Faris and Kyle’s conversation with Cameron Cole.
