But what did Jesus actually have in mind when he spoke about the kingdom of God? 2000 years ago he laid out a vision for the kingdom, the dream society that God always had in mind. It’s an upside down kingdom that is very different from the society around us. He is inviting you to be a part of that kingdom vision!

When Passover happened in Jesus’ day, the festival of the firstfruits took place in the same weekend. During this festival the Jews would celebrate the early barley harvest.
