: A New Perspective on Heaven
In his groundbreaking book, "Rethinking Heaven: The Resurrection and the Mission of the Church," author N.T. Wright challenges traditional views of heaven and offers a transformative perspective that reframes our understanding of the afterlife and its profound implications for the Church's mission on earth.
Wright argues that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is not merely an event that happened in the past but rather a cosmic event that has inaugurated a new reality, a new heaven and a new earth, that is already breaking into our present existence.
The Kingdom of God: Heaven on Earth
According to Wright, heaven is not a distant, ethereal realm but rather the fullness of the kingdom of God breaking into the present world. The resurrection of Jesus has inaugurated this kingdom, and the Church is called to participate in its unfolding through mission and witness.
The kingdom of God is not a utopian ideal but a living reality that is present in the midst of suffering and injustice. The Church's mission is to proclaim this kingdom and to participate in its transformation of the world.
Mission: A Call to Transformation
Wright emphasizes that the mission of the Church is not primarily about saving souls from hell but rather about participating in the transformation of the world according to God's kingdom purposes.
The Church is called to be a sign of hope and healing in a broken world, to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God, and to empower people to live transformed lives.
Discipleship: Becoming Citizens of Heaven
Wright stresses the importance of discipleship in the process of rethinking heaven. Discipleship is not about following a set of rules but rather about learning to live as citizens of the kingdom of God, embodying its values and priorities.
Through discipleship, Christians are transformed and equipped to participate in the Church's mission of bringing about the kingdom of God on earth.

"Rethinking Heaven" offers a radical and transformative perspective on heaven and its implications for the Church's mission.
