A Guide to Revelation in Plain Language
The book introduces Christians to the book of Revelation through a study of one of its key themes: victory. Running counter to Revelation s prevailing interpretation, it proposes that Christians, represented by the audience in the Seven Churches, have been in tribulation since the first century and that Revelation was written to help Christians be victorious over the challenges of life. Each chapter opens with an account of martyrdom. The final account tells the story of the three believers in Malatya, Turkey, who were brutally killed in 2007. The book is dedicated to the three. The volume also features a new translation of Revelation by the author, a scholar who has worked on Revelation for over two decades and who lives in the land of the Seven Churches Turkey.

"This is a great book with rich insights, and I am going to have to reread it! The two best compliments I can give a book or commentary on the book of Revelation is to say it is readable and insightful. This is very accurate of Mark Wilson’s new book on Revelation. He connected so many different dots for me in a book that can be very confusing to understand. In every chapter I found myself saying, ‘Huh, never thought about it that way before.’ The author’s insights are driven by a deep study of the book of Revelation and its many connections with the rest of the Bible as well as from the perspective of someone who has lived in Turkey for many years and understands the nuances of the symbolism." — Jackson Crum Lead Pastor, Park Community Church, Chicago

"Living in Turkey, the land to which the book of Revelation was written, Mark Wilson is well placed to bridge the gap between ancient and modern readers. Emphasizing the themes of witness, tribulation, and victory, he shows how John’s call to faithful witness is as relevant today as two thousand years ago. The Lamb has been victorious, and those who persevere in loyal devotion to him will be victorious through him. Wilson has written a sane, readable, and relevant guide for all who seek to thus follow the Lamb wherever he goes." — Bernard Bell Pastor of Biblical Studies, Peninsula Bible Church, Cupertino, CA

"In an age when many Christians prefer to deny Christian suffering and persecution while others face them as a daily reality, Wilson brings a biblical perspective in his new book. Christians everywhere are called to follow Christ and share in his sufferings. The hope for the church doesn’t lie in a better world but in the victory of the Lamb, who will return to establish the kingdom of God in all its fullness. Wilson successfully unravels the mysteries of the book of Revelation, challenges our thinking, and brings hope to those who are suffering." — Benjamin van Rensburg Pastor, Union Church of Istanbul, Turkey

"This beautiful book is unlike any other personal account of living with Alzheimer’s disease that I have ever read. After thirty years of practice in this field, Ten Thousand Joys & Ten Thousand Sorrows changed the way I think about Alzheimer’s disease... This heuristic, epiphany provoking, poetically written book offers patients and families practical insights into how they can live their love more fully and derive meaning from amidst the heartbreak of a mind-robbing illness." — Paul Raia Director of Patient Care and Family Support, Alzheimer’s Association, Massachusetts Chapter
