Wednesday, April 17: Delving into the heart of the Gospels, this episode explores the recurring theme of the "kingdom of God" in Jesus' teachings. Contrary to popular belief, this concept isn't merely about a distant afterlife but rather a revolutionary movement for justice and renewal in the present. By examining historical and cultural contexts, it becomes clear that Jesus' conception of the kingdom challenged societal norms and expectations, welcoming all, including the marginalized, into its fold. His vision wasn't about seizing power but embodying the values of God's reign through compassion and humility.
