From Shattered to Shalom: How God’s Kingdom Blesses Nations | Dwight Vogt

Ideas Have Consequences

Episode Summary: The Kingdom of God is the story of God’s rule returning to the earth through Christ. It’s about all of life—spiritual, relational, and physical—being restored to the way God originally designed it. And we’re invited to be part of that story.

Through the power of the Spirit, we live as agents of renewal, bringing shalom and reconciliation into every corner of our lives and our world. This is what it means to be the people of the Kingdom. And this is what it looks like for nations to truly flourish.

In this episode, you’ll hear Dwight Vogt’s training from the 2022 DNA Global Forum as he unpacked the Bible’s big story: the Kingdom of God. Explores how the gospel of the Kingdom touches every part of life. He challenges narrow, privatized views of the gospel and invites us to recover a broader, richer understanding of God’s redemptive mission.
