As we have a lot of new Christians, this is a scary book for them. And, like in the US, they hear all kinds of things that people say are in Revelation.  So, my sister asked Dad if he would be willing to teach an overview of the book.  You can imagine that with only 9 hours, he has to teach very fast.  Our students at the school are used to teaching like this, but for many of the others, this is a new experience.  They are taking notes fast and furiously!  We are also taping these classes so they will have access to hear it again at a later date.  Also this month, we have 3 new students at the
