The theme of the upcoming Advent Resources Seed Sampler will be the coming of God’s Kingdom–the new heavens and the new earth. Shalom, or wholeness in life and community, is the underlying foundation of the coming Kingdom. Powerful images in Revelation and Isaish 65 give us a glimpse of what that Shalom Kingdom will look like…as does this short video reflection by Christine Sine.
Christine writes: “The chorus for the song was written by a group of Mennonite youth workers at a course we conducted in Winnipeg some years ago. The verses came from a poem I wrote on shalom. As you can probably tell, the music was not professionally produced, but it definitely conveys my feelings and the longing deep within my heart to enter into the new world of God in which peace and justice will reign.”
