There are two radical concepts that I hope to pass on to my children regarding time and God's purposes.
The first is an understanding of Christ's kingdom as "the end" come back into the present. We are colonists from another age. This is hugely important. The second is an appreciation that the story begun in Genesis is our story. It didn't come to an end with the last chapter of Acts; our God kept right on writing. He's writing still.
Dr. Leithart has a thought provoking comment regarding how the rejection of the Christian Calendar undermines this understanding of continuity.
