For the first part of my Christian life I attended churches that spoke about the Kingdom of God but without having a king and substituting self-reliance and self-help, social engineering, or some form of government program as god. Followed those experiences I participated in fellowships where God was worshiped as the King but a salvation culture was substituted for the Gospel and for God’s marvelous and ubiquitous Kingdom.

This isn't quite the book I'd expected it to be. Attending Gospel Halls throughout my childhood and teenage years and developing my faith in that atmosphere of intense, simplified, bare bones belief, the title of this caught my eye.

This book has a noble aim—to rescue the gospel from the confines of mere personal salvation from Hell. Instead Wright seeks to set the good news of forgiveness in the far grander, more epic news of the restoration of all things to their rightful order and rightful place under the rule of their rightful king.
