What is Kingdom Culture?

How does it change how we see this planet?

Suppose one day I was picked up from an airport by a limo and driven home. When I got out of the car I saw I was in front of a derelict house. I walked in and there was just total destruction and filth inside. 

 I could respond two ways:
Hopelessness - this is where I live. I have to do life in this!

Or

This is not my home! I don't live here. I'm not staying here. Take me to my real home!!

The first response is doing the Christian Life by living within my own efforts and capabilities. 

The second is realizing my inadequacy is irrelevant to Gods sufficiency. In fact It's more accurate to say God's extravagant availability. 

Suppose you had $20. And you had a friend with $20 million dollars. And your friend said "Lets go in partnership together 50-50. You put in your $20 & I'll put in my $20 million.  We'll start a company and be equal owners. 100% / 100%." 
That's what God did.

What I see on the news isn't my destiny....it's my assignment.
I'm a game changer. 
That's Kingdom Culture.

Emotionally I felt adrift.  Soon after I met Merri Ellen Geisbrecht, a Christian Life Coach and Spiritual Director, through an online event for women who desired to encounter Jesus in a deeper way in the midst of the Noise.  I immediately felt this was a God opportunity. I was impressed and could relate to her testimony of beating depression and connecting with Jesus in listening prayer. Her foundation in the Word and her hunger for intimacy to hear from God resonated with where I felt my own journey was going.  She had a 5 day group coaching event in May called “Encounter Jesus in the Noise”....
