“How do we know that the kingdom of God is here? That the awesome presence of God is among us? We know because there is laughing and singing; there are warm greetings and big hugs; there are children banging around and having a great time; there are conversations that bring joy, comfort, relief. There are songs sung that celebrate King Jesus and his great salvation. When we gather for a meal, we don’t clump together in groups only with those who are like us, but we sit and share with strangers and hear their stories. Because in the kingdom of God there are no strangers; only friends and neighbors. These are signs that the kingdom of God is here.”

“To repent (metanoeō) is to change one’s mind, to embrace new thought patterns, to expand the horizons of current thought and behavior, and to imagine the new attitudes, redeemed social practices, and life-giving patterns of behavior that are consistent with inhabiting God’s kingdom. To “believe the good news” is not merely an intellectual task but involves changing the way we conceive of living so that we order our relationships and plan our days as if the reign of God is a reality and not a pious fantasy. Jesus called for his people to see reality as God sees it, to consider their lives as reconfigured by God’s world-altering and radically new reign.”
