Dragons, Beasts, & A Misread Revelation

May 10, 2026    Todd Petkau

What if the Book of Revelation isn’t primarily a secret codebook for predicting the future… but a curtain being pulled back so suffering believers can finally see what is really going on? In this message, Todd explores dragons, beasts, apocalyptic symbols, and the strange imagery of Revelation through a completely different lens: not as a rigid timeline, but as resistance literature written to strengthen frightened Christians living under the shadow of Rome. And somewhere between a 150-year-old optical illusion, Picasso, and a “fever dream of symbols,” you may discover that the final book of the Bible is far less about fear…and far more about faithful endurance.
