Uprising 5, The Uprising of Partnership
In this fifth week of Easter, Pastor Andy Lucas preaches from Acts 16:11-34.
In this story a Gentile woman is recognized as a key player in the kingdom of God, a slave girl is set from demon possession, and a jailer heals the wounds of an inmate. The message is clear….in the uprising of Jesus injustice will be confronted and true peace (compared to Pax Romana) will come to bear on people’s lives and society. And it will be accomplished through partnerships that normal systems and structures could not allow and would not imagine. Because that’s how the kingdom of God works – through partnership!
