The Cottage seeks to be our home away from home until we get to our home that awaits. As tourists this side of God's glory, we look to see the whole earth filled with God's glory in the now as we await the not yet. These broadcasts pour our hearts out along with all of creation as Paul exemplified in his life & ministry and spoke of in Romans 8. We're so excited for all the possibilities coming in the Kingdom now as we know its fulness is yet to come!
