So this week at feig we started a journey, looking at the kingdom of God. We will be discussing what Jesus meant when he talked and demonstrated the kingdom.
It was a great evening looking at the beginning of Jesus' public ministry, as he announces the kingdom.
I think the biggest challenge is that there is 2000 years of culture and history between us and the life of Jesus and so we want to do the creative work of re-imagining what the kingdom means for us today.
We looked at this short clip of the Chewing Gum Man, who creates something beautiful out of something that's been thrown away.
For us it was a helpful picture of what Jesus spoke about when he announced 'the Kingdom of God has arrived.'
Jesus was about taking the very ordinary things, people and circumstances of life and bringing the beauty out in them.
