What on earth are you doing, and does it matter? Skye Jethani has a thought-provoking post on his Skyebox blog about how your ideas about "the end of the world" affect the way you live today. The post is called The Apple Tree and the End of the World (Part 1). I'm not sure how many parts are yet to come, but I'm looking forward to reading them.If Skye's post piques your interest on this important subject, I'd encourage you to order a copy of N. T. Wright's book, Surprised by Hope, and start reading that too. The possibility of a future new heaven and a new earth might just motivate you to plant more apple trees (and do lots of other beautiful things) today.
