At the annual Spring Center for Bible Study Lecture at Jessup University, N. T. Wright explores the sweeping biblical narrative behind his new book, God's Homecoming. Wright argues that the Bible tells one grand story — the story of God’s return in Jesus Messiah and the ultimate vision of a renewed creation. What does it mean to say that “God is back”? What does it mean to pray "on earth as in heaven"? And what difference does this make for the church’s mission today? Drawing on decades of scholarship and pastoral wisdom, Wright invites us to rediscover the Bible’s overarching narrative and to see our own place within it.
