Imminent Domain: The Story of the Kingdom of God and Its Celebration by Ben Witherington IIIMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book was an excellent little 'primer' on the Kingdom of God that would benefit people to read. I've often appreciated Witherington's writing style and contribution to theology and Biblical studies, and this book didn't disappoint. Splitting the book into two (2) parts and using the 'Lord's Prayer' as a structure for one of those parts, Witherington tackles the topic of what does "Kingdom of God" actually refer to and mean, and what are the implications thereof that we as followers of Jesus need to be aware of. I read this book as a supplement source to use in an upcoming series I'm doing with our campus ministry where we're going to look at the whole story of the Bible, and use the 'lens' of the Kingdom of God as we see how the whole Bible fits together from beginning to end. I'm excited to use this little book and see how it'll help college students develop a fresh and (hopefully) deeper understanding/appreciation for the "Kingdom of God."
