Speculating on the Kingdom

We’ve been in a series discussing our missional priorities, the things which are central to our Gospel witness: Gospel culture, Gospel formation, Gospel mercy, Gospel outreach, and Gospel unity. However, we cannot assume the Gospel.What is the Gospel? Why is it called the Gospel of the kingdom? And what does this have to do with making a disciple? For that matter, what is a disciple?This Sunday we will explore these things in a parable I would title, “The Parable of Speculating on the Kingdom”. The essence of our discipleship is in whether and how we speculate on the kingdom of God. This, then, must define our methods of making disciples since this is ultimately what defines a disciple.If you are a believer in St. Petersburg, FL and not established in a church community, join us in worship at 10:00 a.m. as we gather to celebrate our coming King, to embrace our new family, and to consider the culture of this new kingdom of which we are a part.
