    The Kingdom of Heaven - 1 Genesis

    Why is the world getting madder, and where did it start? In the first episode of our new ten-part series, Ian and Raoul trace the madness back to the Garden of Eden and begin exploring the Kingdom of Heaven to find out how a biblical worldview cuts through the noise with the hope our world needs. IN THIS EPISODE • What does it mean to be made in the image of God? • Biblical dominion vs domination: how does the difference change the way we live like Jesus today? • How was the image corrupted in Eden, and what followed: separation, fear and shame? • Can there be a kingdom without the King? We work systematically through the first chapter of Genesis to lay the foundations of the Gospel of the Kingdom.
