What Is A Kingdom?

What Does The Kingdom Look Like?

Missional Points We live with the idea that the Gospel’s chief aim is to make us fit for heaven, when in reality Jesus’ message is focused on making us citizens and recipients of the Kingdom of God today. If the story is all about death and eternity, then the church just becomes about programs to keep the uninterested interested. The Gospel is about participation, not consumption.
