Where I discuss: amillennialism

I just discovered a new book, due out next month, by Kim Riddlebarger. The book is called A Case for Amillennialism. It has an attractive cover.

I emailed Dr. Riddlebarger about it. If I get a resposne, I’ll let you know.

I also wonder if he deals with the distinction between Amillennialism, and its elusive cousin ‘Optimistic Amillennialism’. If anyone can point me to something good to read on that, I’d appreciate it.
