“So when Jesus directs us to pray, “Thy kingdom come,” he does not mean we should pray for it to come into existence. Rather, we pray for it to take over at all points in the personal, social, and political order where it is now excluded: “On earth as it is in heaven.” With this prayer we are invoking it, as in faith we are acting it, into the real world of our daily existence” WorldShouldMeanDoeRealEarthPoliticalOrderJesusHeavenSocialPrayerActingExistencePrayingKingdomsReal WorldExcludedKingdom Come Author:Dallas Willard
“This means that if a person fulfills his or her vocation as a steelmaker, attorney, or homemaker coram Deo, then that person is acting every bit as religiously as a soul-winning evangelist who fulfills his vocation. It means that David was as religious when he obeyed God’s call to be a shepherd as he was when he was anointed with the special grace of kingship. It means that Jesus was every bit as religious when He worked in His father’s carpenter shop as He was in the Garden of Gethsemane.” IfsMeanPersonsSoulFatherJesusWinningBitsReligiousActingGraceSpecialGardenShopsVocationAttorneyShepherdsCarpenterEvangelistsHomemakerGethsemaneKingshipSoul Winning Author:R.

“Ralph Fiennes was a big hero of mine acting-wise growing up and while I was training. I just find him so watchable. He was playing this very intimidating character when we worked together and it certainly felt like he was in character off set as well! He was very cool. Before a scene, he'd be like, "Come on. Let's improvise. Let's just do stuff." But Jesus Christ. He's Ralph Fiennes!” WellsCharacterBigsTogetherJesusFeltStuffChristActingGrowing UpWiseGrowingMinesHeroSceneTrainingJesus ChristIntimidatingVery Cool Author:Jeremy Irvine
