In this episode of Rest of the Rest on KKMS, Scott and Maria explore the profound and often overlooked truth that the Kingdom of God is not distant or reserved for some future moment—it is already at hand, woven into the fabric of our everyday lives. With warmth and thoughtful insight, they unpack what it means to live with an awareness of God’s presence here and now, even in the ordinary, messy, or uncertain moments we tend to dismiss.

The conversation invites listeners to reconsider how they perceive their daily routines, relationships, and challenges. Rather than waiting for clarity, perfection, or a spiritual “high point,” Scott and Maria encourage a posture of attentiveness—learning to recognize glimpses of the Kingdom in small acts of grace, quiet moments of peace, and unexpected encounters.

They also reflect on how easily we can miss what’s right in front of us. Distractions, busyness, and our own expectations can cloud our vision, making the sacred feel distant. Yet, as they emphasize, the invitation of the Kingdom is constant and inclusive—calling us to slow down, notice, and participate in something bigger than ourselves.

Whether you’re feeling spiritually grounded or searching for deeper meaning, this episode offers a refreshing reminder: the Kingdom is closer than you think, and awakening to it can transform the way you live, love, and move through the world.
