While We Wait: Reflections on Kingdom Living

By James Alderson

While We Wait: Reflections on Kingdom Living is drawn from three parables Jesus told in a single sitting on the Mount of Olives, in the final week of his life. Together they form one of the most searching portraits of kingdom living in all of scripture, and together they ask the question that sits at the heart of the Christian life in every generation: how are we meant to live faithfully in the time between Jesus' departure and his return?

The book is written in three parts. Be Ready, drawn from the Parable of the Ten Virgins, is about the inner life - the habits, the character, and the slow preparation of the self over ordinary time. Be Faithful, drawn from the Parable of the Talents, is about stewardship - what we do with everything we have been given, in the confidence that it is meant to grow. Be Accountable, drawn from the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats, is about the life fully lived - what readiness and faithfulness actually produce in the world.
