      A Not So Small Kingdom

      When you think of the Kingdom of Heaven, what comes to mind? Do you think of a place? It’s okay if you do. I would never say that a person is wrong for thinking of heaven in physical terms. When I was a teenager singing in the youth choir at Sweet Home Missionary Baptist Church in Gatesville, TX, we sang multiple songs about heaven. My favorite contained these words:

      “Have you heard of a city, the streets are paved with gold? Have you heard of a city, the streets are paved with gold? 12 gates in the city. 24 elders in the city. Waiting for me in the city. When we all get to heaven, we’re going to have a time.”
