“The kingdom [of God] moves forward through God’s strength, not human strength. Counterintuitively, the kingdom often advances through Christlike humility, weakness, and surrender. Therefore, even when poverty, injustice, pain, sickness, and death are present, we can announce with confidence that the kingdom is already there.”
Eric Constanzo, Daniel Yang, and Matthew Sorens, Inalienable: How Marginalized Kingdom Voices Can Help Save the American Church. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2022, page 37.
