What Is the Kingdom of God? (And Why It Changes Everything)
In this episode, Raz and Jamie dive into a foundational—but often misunderstood—question: What is the Kingdom of God?
They unpack what it means that the Kingdom is wherever God gets His way—where Jesus is King in every part of life, not just on Sundays. For many of us, especially in the American context, “kingdom” language can feel foreign or abstract. We’re taught to be independent and self-governing. But the good news of the Gospel flips that script: by grace through faith in Jesus, we are transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of the Son.
Raz and Jamie also explore some rich New Testament identity-shaping themes:
- Living as ambassadors for Christ
- Embracing our role as citizens of heaven
- Carrying real authority to represent heaven on earth
Whether you’re just beginning to explore the idea of God’s Kingdom or you’ve been walking with Jesus for decades, this conversation will help anchor your identity and mission—with Him.
