Synopsis

Revelation. The last book in the Bible. Also, the most mysterious!

You've always wondered about Revelation, haven't you? But you were afraid to get lost in the symbols and creatures that seem so hard to understand. Have you wished someone could just explain the basics of Revelation to you? Just give you enough background to enjoy the preview of the Second Coming of Jesus without either scaring-or boring-you to death?

Dragons, Grasshoppers, & Frogs! is what you've been waiting for! This book will take you through Revelation in a brief but thorough style. And you don't have to be a teenager to enjoy it! Along the way, you'll learn:

• Every Biblical theme that threads through the book, such as Hell, antichrist, the Kingdom, Satan, and many others!
• Every important term in Revelation, explained clearly and simply.
• Dozens of real world principles to apply in your everyday life!
• Nearly 200 personal reflection journal questions to mark your spiritual growth!
• Dozens of unique portraits of Jesus as He is only seen in Revelation!

You are about to begin a strange and wonderful journey. Along the way, you'll meet seven-headed beasts rising from the sea, and dragons falling from the sky. You'll see cities of earth crumbling to the ground, and a city from Heaven descending to the earth! You'll visit both Heaven and Hell, and see people who cannot die. When you finish Dragons, Grasshoppers, & Frogs! you'll understand the events leading to the end of history and the return of Christ! Above all, you'll discover the Revelation or unveiling of Jesus Christ as earth's rightful King. That's what Revelation is all about!
