On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the exorcism of the Gerasene demoniac. This man, inhabited by many demons and the object of derision for his neighbors, is iconic of a person trapped under the burden of the law. Paulson and Hoyum show how the healing ministry of Jesus sets people free from such burdens into a new life of faith.
