Therefore, we that have The 'Kingdom of God' in us are called the Church and our mission is to spread the word of God all over the world, thus, extending The Kingdom of God. This is not for believers alone but should touch the lives of all people whom we encounter. Even though that course of action has not been easy from as early as the beginning of time when man sought to be independent from God. This independence from God has allowed Satan who is the god of this age to deceive them of their need for God. YetSatan’s power has been broken so that we may know the rule of God in our lives and welcome the power of the age to come that is available to us through The Kingdom of God.

1. A brief review of key aspects of the Course.
2. A discussion on Pastoral implications of having a “Kingdom theology and focus.”
3. A discussion on Pastor Jack Hayford’s passion on, “The Message Christ Preaches.
