Revelations Podcast

What if you stopped trying to prove that you’re enough—and simply received the love God has already given you?
In this impactful and deeply vulnerable conversation, Reagan sits down with Nick Hall, founder and president of Pulse Ministries, to talk about something many Christians quietly struggle with: knowing that God loves you intellectually, but having a hard time actually receiving His love.
Nick shares his incredible journey of following Jesus from childhood, surrendering his life to ministry at 18, working alongside some of the most influential evangelists of our time—and yet spending years believing that his worth was connected to what he could accomplish.
For years, Nick lived with a “try harder” mentality. His identity became tied to achievement, approval, ministry, and being the person everyone could count on. Even while preaching about the love of God to thousands, he struggled to feel that love for himself.
After years of painful seasons, loss, exhaustion, and what he describes as God “undoing” him, Nick began to discover a different way to live: not striving for God's approval, but resting in God's delight.
They talk about:
Why high achievers can struggle to receive God's love
The difference between doing for God and abiding with God
What happens when your identity becomes tied to performance
Breaking free from the cycle of striving, exhaustion, and burnout
Learning to be comfortable simply being God's beloved son or daughter
Why vulnerability and confession should be normal parts of Christian life
The importance of having people who can speak truth and encouragement into your life
Why leaders need people who minister to them, not just people they minister to
Finding healthy community, mentors, accountability, and prayer
How receiving God's love can transform your family and relationships
Breaking generational patterns of performance and approval
Why God's kindness is an invitation, not condemnation
Learning to slow down enough to actually experience God's presence
One of the most powerful moments comes when Nick remembers being in his garage during the pandemic, covered in sawdust, and realizing that he was experiencing God's love in a way he had never experienced it on a stage or at a major ministry event.
As Nick says, “The aim is…let's not forget where our power comes from.”
If you've ever felt like you have to do more, accomplish more, serve more, or prove yourself to be enough, this conversation is for you.
You are not what you do. You are God's beloved.

“The end is coming!” Throughout the years, this short but terrifying sentence has sent shivers down the spines of believers, conjuring images of apocalyptic destruction and trials foretold by ancient texts. But should the faithful tremble at the thought of the book of Revelation, or is there a deeper understanding to be had?
This is a question Jenny Mire was able to answer in her journey to understand the end times. In this episode of The Revelations Podcast, we take a deeper look into the Bible and human history. Jenny sheds light on Daniel's 70 Weeks prophecy, and why she believes that Jesus reigns in the present. She explains the Olivet Discourse and the relevance of the Old and New Covenant so we can better understand the meaning behind the book of Revelation.
This episode will give you hope to continue Gods will in your life and peace to sustain you as you walk with Jesus!
Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:
Gain insight into the different major perspectives of the end times and Jenny’s partial preterist, amillennialist view.
Understand the Olivet Discourse and how Jesus’ proclamations are fulfilled throughout history.
Be freed from fear with a better understanding of the end times and the new covenant with our Lord, Jesus.

Episode Highlights
[03:28] Jenny Explains Eschatology
Eschatology is the study of the end times or the end of the world as we know it. The Greek word “escha” means last or farthest away.
There are many different views and words for this study. Specifically, Jenny views it as the “last days.”
Like many others, Reagan and Jenny have been exposed to the fear of the end times that Hollywood and society have perpetuated.
However, the book of Revelations isn’t about fear. It is about the revealing of Jesus Christ.

[06:55] Jenny: “Revelation is ‘the revealing of’… It means the revealing of Jesus Christ. It is about Jesus. When you look at Revelations with those lenses of ‘Where are we seeing him revealed?’ your view starts to change.”

It reveals the New Covenant and what that means for us, believers.
[07:23] The Major Views of the End Times
The dispensational view looks at Revelations at different times. From the growth of the Church to the 7-year peace agreement of the Antichrist and Jesus’ return to reign and end all evil. The Church is raptured before, in the middle, or after the 7-year tribulation
Amillennialism believes that Jesus reigns right now. There will be no rapture and the Church waits for Jesus’ second coming and then eternity.
A preterist view believes the Revelations were fulfilled in the first century. A partial preterist believes that it has mostly been fulfilled and only awaits the return of Jesus.
Other views include historical, post-millennialism, futurism, and idealism. Listen to the full episode to gain a better understanding of the different views of the end times with Jenny.
Jenny is a partial preterist with an amillennialist viewpoint. She believes that Jesus is reigning in the present. Once He comes back, he will bring eternity.
[13:09] The Journey Into Studying the book of Revelation
In 2020, Jenny started questioning what other people told her about the end times. She started reading Revelations and felt uneasy about how some things didn’t make sense.
She discovered that the 7-year tribulation theology came from Daniel's 70 Weeks prophecy. Jenny started reading the Book of Daniel and listened to different views
Jenny started studying the Hebrew writings in Daniel. It's through this that she better understands the 70 Weeks prophecy and how it actually refers to Jesus and His ministry.
The next step in her journey was understanding what Matthew 24 says when talking about the end times and the great tribulation.
In the past year, she studied Revelations and listened to different views and perspectives. With prayer, Jenny felt the Holy Spirit confirm her beliefs not with fear but with peace.
[17:02] A Deeper Look Into Pre-Tribulation Rapture Theology and History
Dispensationalism was made popular in the 1800s by John Nelson Darby. His work has then been taught in seminaries.
Josephus was a first-century Jewish historian. He documented the history of the Jewish-Roman War. His works are crucial in understanding the views of the end times.
In Matthew 23, Jesus proclaimed destruction and judgment on that generation before He died in 30 AD. In 66 AD, Roman armies surrounded Jerusalem before pulling out and allowing Christians who heeded Jesus’ warnings to flee the city.
The Roma-Jewish War lasted for 3 and a half years as written in the books of Revelations and Daniel. It ended in 70 AD after a final siege lasting 5 months.
A better understanding of these dates gave Jenny a deeper look. Learn more about these historical dates and Bible writings in Jenny’s full explanation in this episode.
[27:02] The Book of Revelations
Many believe that John wrote Revelations between 90 and 95 AD. However, based on his age and writing, it makes sense to have been written around 60 AD
Revelations is the last book in the Bible as it describes the destruction of the temple and how it embodies the Mosaic Covenant.
Jenny asks important questions to better understand Revelations in her journey. This brings her to the realization that the Old Covenant is done and the New Covenant has everything we need.
[31:30] Explaining the Olivet Discourse
The Olivet Discourse is found in Matthew 24 and Luke 21. Before this, Jesus calls out the Pharisees and scribes as hypocrites in Matthew 23.
Jesus and His disciples talk about His proclamation of judgment on the Pharisees, the destruction of the temple, and when it will occur. The disciples ask Jesus about the signs of coming and the end of the age, referring to the Old Covenant Age.
In Matthew, Jesus refers to the “Abomination of Desolation” mentioned by Daniel about the first-century destruction. Luke 21 tells the same story of this discourse where he writes about this desolation as Jerusalem surrounded by armies.
These chapters and verses can be seen in the Roman-Jewish war between 66 AD and 70 AD.
Jesus’ proclamation was fulfilled. Romans conquered, took people captive, and left others dead. Not one stone was left in the temple when it was destroyed in the war.
[42:38] The End of the Old Covenant
The 70 weeks of Daniel was during Jesus’ 3-and-a-half-year ministry. He was crucified midway through the 70th week.

[43:19] Jenny: “When Jesus came when he resurrected and ascended into heaven, He began reigning at that point. The new covenant was in effect for those who accepted it.”

After Jesus' resurrection and ascension, the New Covenant and His reign began.
This overlapped with the Old Covenant as it became obsolete and slowly vanished. The fall of the temple was the end of the Old Covenant.
[46:14] Following the Way of the New Covenant
Recently, there has been talk about rebuilding the temple. However, Jenny believes that this is a distraction of the enemy from our task to grow and become many.

[46:34] Jenny: “You and I are the temple and the Holy Spirit. God dwells in us and where He dwells is His glory. So when it says the glory will fill the whole Earth, that is us, believers.”

People are so focused on what can happen in the future that it distracts us from what we should be doing. Many are scared and choose not to live their lives due to this fear.
We get stuck in fear. However, it’s important to ask about if this is from the Lord. The Lord is perfect love and not based on fear.
John, as a prophet of the first century, wrote Revelations referring to the first destruction of the temple like the prophets of the Old Testament.
Jenny believes we are at the end of the book, experiencing Jesus’ reign and waiting for His return. We are made spiritually new in Christ but yearn for physical restoration.
[56:16] Freedom From Fear By Understanding the End Times
What Jenny has learned about the end times has helped her in understanding the New Covenant.
She is now on a new journey to find out what it means to be a new creation and know our true identity.
Once we stop fearing and looking for the Antichrist and more, we can focus on Jesus and the New Covenant. There is freedom from fear to be able to live and move forward.

What happens when God asks you to do something—and you run the other way?
In Part 2 of our study through the book of Jonah, Reagan Kramer dives into Jonah 1 and the powerful story of a prophet who heard directly from God but chose to go in the opposite direction. As Jonah boards a ship for Tarshish, a violent storm reveals something deeper: we cannot escape God’s purposes, and our disobedience can affect the people around us.
Reagan explores the sovereignty of God, human free will, spiritual warfare, salvation by grace through faith, and the difference between following God’s leading and trying to live life in our own strength. She also examines the fascinating biblical practice of casting lots and why, after Pentecost, believers have the Holy Spirit to lead, guide, and give wisdom.
Most importantly, this episode challenges us to look honestly at our own lives. Where might God be asking you to obey, but you are hesitating, hiding, or going the opposite direction? Reagan shares personal stories of moments when the Holy Spirit prompted her to reach out, encourage someone, or share what God had placed on her heart—and the unexpected blessing that came through obedience.
In this episode:
Jonah’s decision to run from God’s calling
The storm God used to get Jonah’s attention
What biblical sovereignty means
God’s sovereignty and human free will
Why we cannot save ourselves through good works
Jonah sleeping through the storm
The significance of the sailors calling out to their gods
Casting lots in the Old Testament
Why believers have the Holy Spirit to lead and guide them
Jonah’s calling to bring the message of God to Nineveh
How disobedience can cause us to miss opportunities to be a blessing
Learning to recognize and respond to the Holy Spirit
The freedom and blessing found in obedience
Reflection question:
Where have you made it all about yourself and potentially missed the blessing God has called you to be a part of?
How long are you going to say no to God? What consequences will you face?
Have you thanked God for His mercy and grace over your life?
Get your Bible, read Jonah 1, and join Reagan as we continue uncovering the revelation, freedom, and wisdom found in God’s Word.

Running From God? What Jonah Teaches Us About Obedience, Mercy & Your Calling
What if the story of Jonah is about far more than a man and a great fish?
In this episode of Revelations Podcast, Reagan Kramer begins a new Bible study through the Book of Jonah and discovers a powerful story about obedience, rebellion, God's mercy, spiritual warfare, and the incredible purposes He has for our lives.
Before diving into Jonah, Reagan explores the “sword of the Spirit” from Ephesians 6 and why the Word of God is one of the most powerful weapons we have against the enemy. She shares how Scripture reveals the truth about God, about ourselves, and about our identity in Christ—and how knowing that truth can keep us from being led astray.
Then we enter the story of Jonah. Why did God send Jonah to Nineveh? Why did Jonah run in the opposite direction? And what does his resistance reveal about our own tendency to run from difficult assignments or people we don't think deserve God's mercy?
Reagan takes a closer look at Nineveh, its history and pagan culture, Jonah's calling as a prophet, and the significance of Jesus referring to Jonah. She also explores one of the most challenging questions raised by the story: Do we believe God's mercy is available even to people we think are too far gone?
Most importantly, Reagan shares a personal story of a time when she nearly walked away from a ministry God had called her to because it had become difficult. Through a series of unexpected confirmations, she realized she needed to seek God rather than simply walk away—and discovered the blessing that came from saying yes to His calling.
This episode will encourage you to ask:
Am I running from something God is asking me to do?
Are there people I have decided don't deserve God's mercy?
Am I allowing God's Word to shape my identity?
What might God accomplish through my simple “yes”?
Where is God asking me to trust Him even when obedience is difficult?
Jonah reminds us that God's calling doesn't always lead us somewhere comfortable—but His mercy is greater than our rebellion, and we may never know this side of heaven the eternal impact our obedience can have.
“You'll never know this side of heaven what kind of eternal impact your yes will make.”

What if the answer to better health isn't always another prescription?
In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, Reagan welcomes back Dr. George Kramer for a fascinating conversation about the history of medicine, the rise of the pharmaceutical model, and the growing return to natural and whole-person approaches to health.
Dr. Kramer shares how his experience at Mayo Clinic and decades of practicing physical and integrative medicine shaped his approach to healing. They discuss how medicine moved from an emphasis on prevention, nutrition, lifestyle, and the body's natural ability to heal toward a system increasingly focused on diagnosing disease and treating symptoms with medication.
They explore the importance of diet, exercise, sleep, morning light, breathing, stress reduction, gut health, vitamins and minerals, and spiritual health. Dr. Kramer also explains why he believes the mind, body, spirit, and soul should all be considered when looking at a person's health.
You'll also hear personal stories about magnesium, migraines, atrial fibrillation, chronic pain, hormone health, prayer, and the surprising ways seemingly simple changes can make a difference.
Dr. Kramer explains why he believes medicine is beginning to rediscover some of the principles that natural and integrative practitioners have emphasized for decades—and why patients can take a more active role in understanding and caring for their health.
Most importantly, this conversation points back to a biblical perspective: our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and caring for our health can be part of caring for what God has entrusted to us.
