“The beauty and brilliance of the kingdom of God can’t be grasped practically without grasping it spiritually. You can’t do one without seeing the other — and seeing it requires being set free by God. In order for us to really experience the kingdom, to taste and see the glory of kingdom life, the king has to burst open the prison of our hearts and minds, and give us new eyes to see and new ears to hear.”
