My dear friend Steve Smith, a brilliant missiologist, always began our training sessions with a profound “Kingdom Kernel.” His foundational statement that “if you understand the kingdom, you will understand what Jesus is saying about the Christian life” resonated deeply with me. Unfortunately, Steve passed a few years back but his example and teaching has stuck with me. I’d like to continue his line of kingdom thinking in my writing.
