Finding Peace in the End Times: A Guide for Curious Christians
This week on Cultivate, we dove into the different perspectives Christians have about the end times by exploring premillennial, amillennial, and postmillennial views. Charlie Loften explained how these major interpretations shape the way we read the Book of Revelation—especially the “thousand-year reign” described in its later chapters. Together with Abigail Boone, they discussed how various traditions have understood Christ’s return, the tribulation, and the hope Christians hold for the future.
We looked at how each view draws from Revelation and other Scriptures, the importance (and limits) of taking prophecy literally, and the difference between essential beliefs and “interesting” theological debates. Charlie Loften emphasized that, no matter which perspective you lean toward, the heart of Revelation points us to hope in Christ’s ultimate victory and encourages us not to get lost in anxiety or endless arguments.
Wherever you are in your faith, we invite you to consider what it looks like to live with hope and trust in God’s faithfulness—even when the future seems uncertain.
