I just cracked open Rob Bell’s new book “Jesus Wants To Save Christians.” You should check it.

“What started in the garden is now affecting the globe. The word for this condition is anti-kingdom. There is God’s kingdom – the peace, the shalom, the good that God intends for all things. And then there is what happens when entire societies and systems and empires become opposed to God’s desires for the world.”

Does the Lord’s prayer, “may your kingdom come. Your will be done…” make sense now?
