Well, hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the Prophecy Prose podcast with Jeff and I,

and we were super excited today to have a great friend of ours here with us. Dr. Mark Hitchcock, he's a professor at DTS.

He's the pastor of Faith Bible Church in Oklahoma, and a prolific author of many books, and he's got his own YouTube channel and all kinds of other stuff. And we'll let him share where the best place is for you to find out about his ministry at the end. But Mark, first of all, just welcome and thank you for joining us today. Well, thanks for being with you guys. Appreciate what all you guys do, and it's a privilege to be with you. Awesome. We appreciate to taking the time. Good deal.

Well, Mark, we want to talk today about the book Revelation. You've just written a new book

that's coming out with the Harvest House publishers, and very exciting. It's called the Revelation

Answer Book. And so I guess the kind of the elephant in the

room to ask, the first question is, what motivated you to want to do a book just about Revelation

and answer a ton of questions about this last book of the Bible? Well, several years ago, gosh,

I don't know how many years ago it's been now, I did a book with Harvest House. We called it 100.

I've written quite a few of these 101 books.

It was 101 answers to questions about the book of Revelation. So that book was in, you know,

publication for, I don't know, probably 10 years or so. And they approached me about adding to that book,

about expanding it. As you know, you and you add to a book to kind of bring it out as a new release,

you have to add about 25 or 30% new material.

So we went from 101 questions, 125 questions.

But, you know, calling a book 125 answers to questions about Revelation doesn't have a lot of

ring to it.

So we changed the title just a Revelation

Answer book. But the reason I wrote the book originally and the reason that we're updating it

like this is it's a real, I think, accessible way for people to study the book of Revelation

because a lot of people love to take a commentary and just, you know, plow through that and read to it.

I love reading commentaries as I study the Bible.
