When Opinions Collide

Love & Light

The resurrection of Jesus is the dawning of the age to come. His return will bring it in its fulness. Therefore, those who belong to him live in the present age, yet belong to the age to come. How does this shape the way we live in our society today? What obligations do we have to those around us?
