Hello, I'm John Eldridge, and welcome to the Ransomed Heart Audio Podcast.

For more information on Ransomed Heart Ministries, our resources and events, please visit

Here we go again. This is the Ransom Heart Podcast, this is Craig McConnell. We do hope that this series

we're in titled Hoping in the Coming Kingdom is encouraging you and today we're doing the fourth in this

series and John will be asking the question and sharing his thoughts on what do we do with our kingdom heart with this heart that was

designed for the kingdom that just pulsates and yearns and hopes for the coming

kingdom and a life that we have so much of here and now but won't

fully be ours until the kingdom comes. I think this podcast will provoke some deep thinking, some yearning,

and I'm sure you're going to enjoy it.

My question is,

so what have you done with your kingdom heart?

Given all that was being awakened and the reminded of and discovered for the first time and hope and promise and that heart which is the deepest truest thing about you.

What have you done with your kingdom heart. I am sick of goodbye. I hate it. I really hate it. Dropping Luke off at school and driving away was just

absolutely brutal.

And then we went back for Parents Weekend.

Well, first, the first time we left, I was absolutely stunned how your life can change with one goodbye.

I mean suddenly, literally before we were out of the parking lot,

Stacy and I realized we are now in a completely new phase of life for the rest of our lives.

Just simply at goodbye, I was blown away that that could happen and then we went back for parents weekend you bet we did

We got to see Blaine and Luke, they go to the same school.

Blaine's a senior there.
