In this series, we will be talking about how the kingdom of God informs the way we live our lives and see the world. As we read through the story of the “Advent” or the “Coming Of God”, it is clear that a primary purpose of this gracious act is to give us a glimpse of heaven in order to be inspired to model heaven on earth. Through the Christmas story, we will be focusing on the values of the kingdom of God and how those values are lived out ‘on earth’. Through an honest reading of the unique characters of the Advent story, we hope that our community accepts the calling to align our lives with heaven.
