What is the Kingdom of God?
To me the Kingdom of God is in a deeper understanding,the ever increasing presence of God in a believer's life. Jesus says when we repent, ie turn from our sinful ways and embrase the gospel, we invite him to come and stay in us, directing us in every aspect of our lives (in dwelling of the Holy Spirit). So when we leave lives controled and directed by the Holy Spirit we are experiencing the kingdom of God in our day to day lives and we shall see the fulness of it when we leave happily with God in eternal life after death.

"According to Jesus, what does it mean to be loved by God?"
In his word God has made us to understand that the thoughts and plans he has for us are of Good and to take us to an expected end, of which he expects us to consider our ways, call upon him and he will answer us and lead us to the right path he has prepared for us. To say God loves us is to say, he God who made us has something he wants to see fulfilled in our lives (destiny/purpose) as such in the love he has for us he wants us to get connected with him so that he can bring to fulfillment all the wonderful good things he has to give to us, for he says, eyes have not seen, nor ears heard, nor has it entered into the mind (hearts) of men what God has prepared for us. So I strongly believe in his love for us God wants to bring to fulfillmetn all that he has made available for us.

Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
YES JESUS BELIEVES LOWLY PEOPLE ARE MORE THAN VALUABLE. WHEN WE READ THE WORD OF gOD WE SEE OR COME TO UNDERSTAND THAT BE WE BLACK OR  WHITE, SHORT OR TALL, FAT OR THIN, POOR OR RICH, EDUCATED OR UNEDUCATED, WE ARE ALL MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD, WE HAVE THE SAME BREATH OF GOD IN US, WE ARE EQUAL IN THE EYS OF GOD AS SUCH JESUS IS MAKING US TO UNDERSTAND THAT WE NEED NOT LOOK DOWN ON OTHERS SIMPLY BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY MAY BE FACING AS CHALLENGES BUT WE KNOW THAT NOT CONDITION IS PERMANENT AND SURELY IS HIS OWN TIME GOD WILL MAKE ALL THINGS BEAUTIFUL EVEN UNTO THE LOWLY.

In your own words, write down what the phrase, "good news of God" means?
To Me the Good News of God is the message of salvation, of God's promises to us how he is willing to restore us to himself by making his Son a sacrifice so that whoever believes in his Son and follow his son's teachings will have life everlasting.

If you were Mark, writing a short report to demonstrate to a Roman audience that Jesus (a Jewish man) was "the Son of God", what would you include in that report?

Taking into accounts all that which was written by the prophets of old about the coming of the Saviour, the condition under which he will be born and what he has to go through in life and how he will deliver God's people and reconcile them back to God by death on the cross, there is only one man who has gone through it all just as it was written, and even he himself testify of it, that I have come to fulfill the  promise    (Isaiah 62, Luke 4:17-21). That man is Jesus our Lord and saviour and he lives and work in us everyday through the Holy Spirit which he promised us will be sent to us from God. I have every reason to testify of his goodness upon my life. He is truely the Son of God, the risen Christ, the one and only way to the Father.
