671 The Kingdom Is Not Elsewhere

Monday, December 29th: Many Christians live as if the kingdom of God is somewhere far away—future, distant, or disconnected from everyday life. But Jesus’ first message was not about waiting; it was about availability. In this episode, we explore what Jesus meant when he said the kingdom of God is “at hand” and how that reality reshapes ordinary life. Rather than treating faith as something we add on, we’re invited to step into a life already saturated with God’s presence. This episode reframes the kingdom not as an idea or destination, but as God actively reigning here and now. When we begin to see life this way, anxiety loosens its grip and faith becomes lived rather than imagined. The kingdom is not elsewhere—it’s closer than we think.
