Tribulation Farce: A Left Behind Podcast

One of the many fun things about making this podcast is going from "this is cool!" (ironically) to "yo, this is pretty sick actually" (sincere), so it should be no surprise that breaking down the context around the creation of Revelation and the timeline of the Tribulation judgments was really fun to dig into. The start of this episode is a look into the actual book of Revelation and the history that led to its writing, along with necessary context to help ground this wild and weird book. Then, we enter the Final Terrible Week of The Lord and break down the Seal, Trumpet, and Bowl Judgments that have either already affected our heroes, or will be thrown at them soon. Things are about to get extremely unchill for the Tribulation Force and I cannot wait to talk about it when we get deeper into the series. Even if some of the judgments are repeats... (Really, God? Three earthquakes??)This episode would not have possible without the fine folks over at patreon.com/contenthole.

So, all of those explosions at the end of the last book? Yeah, that was just the first course (not an appetizer though, a 100mg bomb is the biggest meal being served so that wouldn't work in this food based analogy) and the Tribulation Force is still in the danger zone.
