Imagine you’ve spent years in church, committed to your faith, yet something feels incomplete. The transformation you expected never fully materialized, and you’re left wondering why.
In this episode of As In Heaven, host Matt Davis talks with Bryan Elliott, author of As In Heaven, who shares his own journey of rediscovering the Kingdom of God and how the radical message of Jesus can be more than just a ticket to heaven after we die – it can transform our lives today.
Together, they tackle the problem of why so many Christians miss out on the fullness of life that God intends for us here and now, discussing how embracing the Lordship of Jesus and the Kingdom of God can bring true personal and societal transformation.
