A Six-Week Family Bible Study
The Cosmic Kingdom:
Three Rebellions, One Rescue
The Bible tells one story. It is far bigger, far stranger, and far more dangerous than most families have ever been shown.
Start the Six-Week StudyThe Study
Six weeks. One rescue mission.
Before the earth existed, the Father already had a heavenly government of real spiritual beings with real authority. When they rebelled, the consequences reshaped the entire spiritual map of the world. The nations were divided and handed over to rogue rulers who enslaved the peoples they were meant to protect.
But the Father never abandoned His children. He launched a rescue operation through one family, one nation, and finally through His unique Son, who walked into occupied territory, stripped the rogue powers of their authority at the cross, and reversed the scattering of Babel at Pentecost.
The rescue mission is still in progress. These six weeks trace that mission from the first rebellion to the final call: to be found faithful when the King returns.
