Kenneth G. C. Newport & Crawford Gribben 
Expecting the End [PDF ebook] 
Millennialism in Social and Historical Context

Destek

Jesus’ promise that ‘the end’ draws near has spawned an expectation of that grand event across various religious groups. This volume examines the abiding social issues that surround the continued presence of apocalyptic anticipation by setting them in historical, present-day, and future manifestations. Approaching this fervent expectation from a broad perspective, Gribben and Newport explore the contemporary movements with insightful analysis that provokes discussion and even self-reflection.
