Excerpt from April 18, 2004 Study Guide:
SUMMARY:
[Dr. Boyd] started a short series today on The Cross and the Sword.
The basic distinction we need to learn as Christians who live
in the world but not of the world is this: we live in the Kingdom of Darkness but serve the Kingdom of God.
The message was about the different ways these two kingdoms understand the use of power. Because the use of power was the topic, the issue of politics is inevitably involved.
Greg did not propose support for one political agenda or another, but helped us assess how we, as citizens of heaven, are to understand political involvement...."

April 18, 2004 Taking America Back for God? , Greg Boyd sermon length is 38:44 minutes
Greg questions the slogan "Taking America Back for God" by discussing the differences between the kingdom of this world and the Kingdom of God. As Christians, we are to belong first and foremost to God's Kingdom, yet live under the governments of this world. How does that work?

April 25, 2004 - The Difference Between the Two Kingdoms, Greg Boyd sermon length is 43:43 minutes
The Kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world are two very separate things.
One uses the sword (power over) to influence people; the other uses love (power under). To understand this distinction is much easier than letting it affect the way we live. Greg continues to discuss the differences between these kingdoms and how we are to live within the distinction.
