Series: Seek First - Experiencing the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth

The Now and Not Yet Kingdom

September 22, 2024 | Lynette Sanchez
Isaiah 11:1-9
Are we a people in waiting? Jesus inaugurated his reign by his birth, life, death, and resurrection and then he returned to heaven. He promised to return, but where does that leave us? Understanding the now and not yet reality of the kingdom of God calls us to be contemplative followers and active witnesses to the Spirit's continued work.

Series Information

The next few months will be full of distractions as fall programs launch, the election approaches, and the stressors of our personal lives continue to pull on us. But Jesus invited his disciples to seek first his kingdom. We are invited as well to fix our eyes on the greater reality of the kingdom of heaven rather than the kingdoms of this world. The kingdom of heaven is here among us now and will soon reach its fulfillment as God the Father brings all things under the reign of Jesus our King of kings. Join us as we explore where and when the kingdom of God is, who is in and out of it, and its impact on how we live today.
