Reading Revelation Missiologically: The Missionary Motive, Message, and Methods of Revelation

Through Global Mission to God’s Throne

Few works on Revelation emphasize its missional element. Reading Revelation Missiologically aims to fill that gap, showing that this final book of the Bible is deeply missional—calling God’s people to witness, worship, and endure in the face of suffering. As the fourth volume in the Reading Missiologically series (following Hebrews, 1 Peter, and James), it highlights Revelation’s call to faithfulness, perseverance through suffering, and global worship of the Lamb.

Structured around the missionary motive (why), message (what), and methods (how), this volume explores Revelation’s theology of mission. Revelation is replete with the theme of God’s love for the nations, and it calls God’s people to live as a foretaste of the coming new creation. Global voices offer fresh insights for pastors, scholars, and students. Rather than a puzzle to decode, Revelation is presented as a powerful missionary declaration.
