The Kingdom Is Here

When we look at our world, there is tragedy everywhere. In this tragedy there is a cry for things to be made right, for restoration; for justice. But who defines right or restoration or justice? There are people dying, families being broken and a world being divided. As Christians, our job isn’t to make sense of the chaos, but to seek justice and restoration. This week, we take a step back and look at justice done God’s way. 

On this episode we read from Genesis chapter 8 and Luke chapter 17 and discuss a pattern of what is good being called evil. This is a pattern called sin. In sin, however, God has not forsaken the world, the world has forsaken Him. But there is hope. 

Last week we discussed the weeds in our lives that are destructive and try to compete for our attention, but there was a time when those weeds weren't there. This week we look into that time. Is it possible to get back to that? How do the seeds we plant tie into what we reap? Can we live a life of purity before God without the thistles, thorns, and weeds? 

Matthew chapter 13 is full of parables. These parables all start by saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like…” In this episode we begin to dive into what exactly these mean in our world and lives today because the reality is that the kingdom of heaven is not just the end of your story, it’s every bit of your story. It’s all about the process.

Decline. Corruption. Depreciation. Decay. Fade. Dishonesty. These words don’t sound very descriptive of Jesus and His Kingdom, but they must be addressed by those who represent Him. In this episode, we’ll look at these things that emphasize our need for King Jesus.

What type of ruler is our King? Where is the throne He sits on? Where does He dwell? This week we'll dive into First Samuel chapter eight and look at the beginning of earthly kings in Israel. 

There is a revolution that is coming. In fact, it's already here. It's the one that's going to win. But are you a part of it?
