Yet, more than providing fodder for Hollywood, Christian eschatology serves a specific purpose that ought to consume every inch of our souls. The purpose of our eschatology shouldn't be voyeuristic fascination with destruction, but rather hopeful anticipation of restoration. Russell Moore says that our hope for restoration and redemption includes "table fellowship, community, culture, economics, agriculture and animal husbandry, art, architecture, worship-in short, life and that abundantly."

Christian eschatology ought to cause us to think about the future. But it has more to teach us about our lives here and now than whether Blackhawk helicopters are in Revelation.

Simply put: Because Christ is present among his people-in an already-not-yet kind of way-we must live like it. 

The story of humanity and its relationship to God began in the garden of Eden, and it ends with a return to Eden. The entire story of redemption is about getting us back to paradise. Our hope is not based on decoding the current news cycle; it's about living now as we once did and as we one day will live again. All of Christian eschatology is building toward a resolution inaugurated by Christ's life, death, resurrection, and ascension.
