A recent addition to the Christian calendar, proposed in 1937. It begins on the last Sunday of August and continues until the first Sunday in Advent.
Focus points are:
The love of Christ translated into justice within society
The Kingdom of God, now and to come
The inner life of the Christian
The Lordship of Christ over politics and culture
The relationship between the bread of life and bread for the world
Kingdomtide acknowledges that the Christ event relates to all our relationships and institutions, and connects to the dynamic of justice and mercy. Kingdomtide is about liberating captives, and working to bring peace and freedom for the individual, the culture, and the human community.
