We have a crisis of power in our homes, churches, neighborhood, nation and world. Jesus is empowering us to be powerful in new ways. We need a new definition of what power looks like and lives like and his name is Jesus. Jesus models and invites us into a new way of inhabiting power and it is cross-shaped: powerful like a lion, living like a lamb. This is the kind of power that saves the world.
As we continue our series on God's dwelling with us in place amidst the social dynamics we face as a people, the book of Esther reveals how humanity is always grappling with power. Will we leverage our power according to our identity as God's people? Or will we be co-opted into the uses and abuses of power that the world and empire lay out for us?
