The kingdom of God, in short compass, is the society in which the will of God is established to transform all of life.2 The kingdom of God is more than what God is doing “within you” and more than God's personal “dynamic presence”; it is what God is doing in this world through the community of faith for the redemptive plans of God—including what God is doing in you and me. It transforms relationship with God, with self, with others, and with the world.
