This podcast is designed around the reality that many of our churches are shrinking because we haven’t created a place where everyone can belong. So if you’re seeing that reality in your own church, or you’ve experienced that and left the church, this podcast is for you.

PreacHer: Rhesa Higgins

Summary: Acts 12 is one of those stories that gets told time and time again, as the early church reminds themselves of what they knew to be true--the Kingdom of God will eventually prevail. But also, there’s this minor character who might actually be the hero in hiding. All of this has us asking ourselves: whose voice have we discounted, or silenced in proclaiming the good news that God is still in this resurrection business? When our chains fall off, will we choose to get up and believe the truth that God is resurrecting us and freeing us from a life of fear? How many times have we chosen to stay put instead of following the unexpected way out? God is at work among us. May we have eyes to see it, and feet to follow.
