Episode 479: Why Our End Times Theology Matters, Part Two--Unpacking Armageddon

About this episode

The episode explores the true meaning of Armageddon and how God achieves victory through His Word.

From action-packed summer blockbusters to pop culture references, people use the word "Armageddon" to talk about any cataclysmic disaster, real or imagined. But what does the word actually mean, and where does it come from? In this episode, colleagues in minister Erica, Natalie, Sarah, and Steve explore the history behind this word, the misnomer that it's about a grand future battle, and the way God really wins victory--by the sheer authority of God's Word, rather than human weapons.
