Playback speed
The city of Jerusalem, established by David to be the home of God, is a glimpse of what a divine city could look like, but even Jerusalem becomes corrupt. Is there any kind of city we can actually put our hope in? Jesus seemed to think so. He said he was the place where Heaven and Earth are fully united, allowing God and humanity to dwell together.

In this episode, Tim and Jon discuss the new Jerusalem.View more resources on our website →Timestamps Part one (00:00-11:08)Part two (11:08-25:46)Part three (25:46-33:32)Part four (33:32-47:31)Part five (47:31-1:02:52)Referenced ResourcesThe City We Became: A Novel, N.K.
