As You Go

Ep 56 - Kingdom Theology: What "Thy Kingdom Come" Really Means


Listen Later

On the inaugural episode of our newly-named podcast, Bo sits down with the two guys who co-hosted the original episode two years earlier: Mark Paul and Steve Johns. As usual, they spend several minutes cracking jokes when they should be focusing on the topic at hand; finally, though, they get down to discussing the concept of Kingdom Theology, a system of thought that places "the kingdom of God," (a.k.a. "the kingdom of heaven") at the forefront of the Christian life, and how this system completely contradicts the "fire insurance" salvation they all grew up with.

Jesus talked a lot about the kingdom of God, and throughout the New Testament so did its writers. In almost every context, the tone was one of anticipation, as if there was something in the offing, and something even greater just over the horizon. But what exactly IS the kingdom of God, and what role do followers of Jesus play in it in the here and now?
