With this new series we take up the subject of the nature of Christ’s ”second coming.” Since the earliest days of Christianity, there was an orientation towards a time of Christ‘s return. Today, many of us feel a deep sense that the world needs to, or is, ending soon. Alongside it, we feel the hope or longing for something new to come. In this first episode, Patrick and Jonah begin to describe the relationship and dynamic between the old world and the new world. What is falling away? What is beginning to grow and flourish? Is there a way in which the “world” has already ended?With this new series we take up the subject of the nature of Christ’s ”second coming.” Since the earliest days of Christianity, there was an orientation towards a time of Christ‘s return.
