2025 Bible Advocate Theme:

“Kingdom People”

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness.”

Key Verses: Matthew 6:33; 13:38; 1 Peter 2:9-12; Philippians 2:12-16

What do kingdom people look like, and how do they relate to, and interact with, the kingdoms of this world? This year, we will examine six kingdom dispositions that set us apart from the world, yet for the world. These core characteristics are essential to us because they’re found in and flow from the very character and person of King Jesus. They should define His followers as well.

Join us on our journey to understand what it means to be children of the King in the world today. Send your article submissions to bibleadvocate@cog7.org. Please be sure to read our writer’s guidelines at baonline.org (About/Write For Us) before you submit.
