Our Kingdom Identity (Luke 10:13-20)
Description
In this episode, we jump back into the discourse happening between Jesus and the 72 both before their sending out, and after their return in Luke 10:13-20. Together, we reflect on the sense of expectation that comes with experiencing God’s Kingdom. When we encounter Jesus—when the Kingdom of God draws near—we face a choice: to embrace it or to turn away. Further, Jesus also deepens the mission blueprint by grounding both the disciples and their work in their identity as full representatives of the Kingdom. As appealing as fruit may be, it cannot flourish unless it is rooted in our identity in Christ. Therefore, as we seek to participate in and proclaim the Kingdom, our efforts must first and foremost be anchored in who we are in Christ.
