Summary

"How should we understand John's vision in Revelation 21—what’s new about the new creation, and how does it fulfill God’s promises from the Old Testament? The climax of the vision is that God dwells with His people—‘they will be His people, and God Himself will be with them’. Why is this significant? Revelation 22 describes the river of life and the tree of life, which takes us back to Genesis. What’s the significance of these images, and how do they show God’s plan to fully reverse the curse? In today's episode, Emma Dotter talks with Watermark member, Cassidy Webber, about the final two chapters of the Bible, Revelation 21-22. In this final Year of the Word episode, Emma and Cassidy discuss how the end of Revelation ties to the very beginning of the BIble and reflect on how the Bible is one big story of God's love and redemption for mankind. Additional References: Genesis 1-2; John 1; Psalm 23 You can also check out the Join The Journey Jr. Podcast: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/join-the-journey-junior/id1660089898 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6SG7aaE1ZjjFkgB34G8zp3?si=c960a63736904665 Check out the Join The Journey Website for today's devotional and more resources! https://www.jointhejourney.com/ Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Watermark-Community-Church/author/B0BRYP5MQK?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1755623322&sr=8-1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=8aeeec3b-6c1c-416d-87ae-5dfbbb6981df"
