What is the biggest barrier to experiencing the life of God’s kingdom?

In Luke 18, three groups come to Jesus. Only one receives an unqualified “yes” — the one group the disciples were trying to keep out!

Jesus shows us that entering the kingdom isn’t about climbing higher; it’s about receiving. But not just receiving a personal gift from God; receiving those the world overlooks as gifts.

That’s what is necessary to enter into a Jubilee community. A community where debts are released, people are restored, and the least are welcomed to the table.

We’ll explore what it means to enter the kingdom of God. Not just someday in heaven, but right now. Join us as we continue Cultivating Generosity: Becoming a Jubilee Community and discover the life that is truly life.
