God's Big Idea explores God's plan from before the beginning of time to expand the rule and influence of His heavenly Kingdom into the physical dimension. He did this by creating the earth, planting a garden on it in Eden, and placing there humans created in His own image as its caretakers and rulers. Through satan's deception and treachery, man lost his earthly dominion. God immediately set into motion His plan to restore what was lost. From the human perspective, then, God's Big Idea is about a paradise created, a paradise lost, and a paradise regained. God's plan has never changed. He still intends to fill the earth with His rule and influence by establishing colonies, "Kingdom communities" of His citizens in the world that transform the earth the way a beautiful garden transforms barren soil. These communities will expand and multiply throughout the world until the earth is filled with "the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea" (Is. 11:9).
