Kingdom Journey: Discovering the story that restores humanity
This would be a great Journey to explore the story of the whole Bible. We have taken key moments in the Biblical narrative that highlight the nature and impact of the Kingdom of God. If you are looking at Journeying through the Bible in a year, these six eight-stage journeys would just about fit over 12 months. Alternatively it would also fit (almost) as a daily Lent Journey! This gives a wonderful overview of the whole Kingdom Story, or what Tom Wright describes as five acts: Creation, Fall, Israel, Jesus, Church, with us now living in the final fifth act, continuing the story. (See Scripture and the Authority of God)
