They explain the Lutheran view that the kingdom is centered on Christ and comes to us through the Word and Sacraments, rather than something Christians must build through their own work. The Fellows also talk about the kingdom as both present and future, the calling of Christians in their vocations, and the hope we have in Christ\u2019s return and the fullness of His kingdom.
