Bringing Heaven Down to Earth
from The Bridge After Hours · host The Bridge
The boys talk was about shifting our mindset from a “get out of here and go to heaven” mentality to realizing that God called His creation—this world, our bodies, everything—good. They went deep into how an old belief called Gnosticism crept into the church, making people think the physical world is bad and only the spiritual matters. But Genesis shows us that God made the earth and called it good, and our mission isn’t to escape but to partner with Him in restoring it.This changes everything—how we see our purpose, how we treat people, how we care for the earth, and even how we think about heaven. Instead of floating on clouds, the Bible paints a picture of God renewing and restoring His creation. So it’s not just about saving souls but bringing heaven to earth in the here and now. And yeah, they also debated the best pizza spot in town—because even good food is a gift from God.Have any questions? We would love to hear from you!
