I’m continuing to read Missional Church. In chapter 5 there is an excellent description of the church as a representative of the reign (kingdom) of God.

 

The church is a preview of life under the rule of God in the age to come, a forerunner of the new Jerusalem, a foretaste of the heavenly banquet, a sign of the reign of God.
