ANNOUNCING MY NEW BOOK: Thinning the Veil
Encountering Jesus Christ in the Book of Revelation (IVP)
“The revelation of Jesus Christ…”
~ Revelation 1:1 ~
Too often, the first five words of the book of Revelation are overlooked. Too often, like a panhandler on the corner as we approach a stop light, they are acknowledged but rarely studied.
But what if we took these first five words seriously. Peered at them intently. Studied all 404 verses of Revelation believing they contained a clearer picture of God, a piercing gaze into His divine council, a transformative insight that ushers us beyond the veil blinding us to the movements and machinations of heaven here on earth. What if we read the book of Revelation as if it were, truly, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ.”
In Thinning the Veil: Encountering Jesus Christ in the Book of Revelation, I unearth the text by allowing it to, first, unearth me. A process of “mutual reading” that led me through explorations of loneliness, intimacy, identity, the nature of evil, the transformational power of the Spirit, and so much more.

Shane, I’ve just completed my first read-through of Thinning the Veil… thank you for this theologically sound and keenly insightful presentation of understanding that has served to provide significant clarity to my personal work in understanding the Revelation of Jesus Christ given to John (for the greater understanding of that Revelation as it pertains to every believer in Christ as the Church of Jesus Christ). Well done!— and your insight is now is serving to provide “essential help” in my making sense of our present abiding in faith within the vast reach of the hope to which we hold, despite the evidence of things we do see and experience in living our lives as a “peculiar people”.
