“In this elegant volume, seven distinguished theologians wrestle with the big questions surrounding the biblical notion of kingdom—ultimately forging a path for the church where there is no inherent conflict between preaching and living, between orthodoxy and orthopraxy.”
Bruce Riley Ashford,
Dean and Associate Professor of Theology and Culture, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
