Well hello, 100 Fold Ministries is all about the gospel of the kingdom. It's our firm belief, and really our deep hope, that there are great, untapped blessings and miracles even set aside for us that we can know just by setting our eyes on the central theme and message of Jesus. His person, His work and teachings, the central theme, and that is what's called the gospel of the kingdom. This is Dave Scherrer, and here at Kingdom Offerings, our podcast environment, we spend a little bit of time every other week trying to unpack some of these gospel truths.
We have said that stories might be the best way to communicate the mystery and to pique the interest of those who are asking for help in understanding what is this good news, this gospel, exactly. After all, that was the most common method that Jesus used when trying to help us understand the kingdom of God. He would say, oh, the kingdom of God, the kingdom of heaven, is like, maybe pause for a minute, and then he would tell a story about a mustard seed or a vineyard owner. It seems that sometimes a story is the best hope to make the eternal come alive in our imagination by tapping into our imagination.

Our acts of kindness, done in the name of Jesus, with the purpose of serving and blessing others also serve to lay aside treasures in heaven that glorify and exalt our King. This constitutes the kingdom coming on earth as it is in heaven - we become the answer to the Lord’s prayer.
God's economy of spiritual profit, which He's interested in, is not based on anything that has a worldly value associated with it.
