Power

Today we ventured to the cities of Pergamum and Smyrna. Both cities are churches mentioned in the Book of Revelation and both churches helped us consider the day’s theme of power.

Both the world and the gospel have something to say about power - what it is, where it comes from, and how it should be used. For the first century church, they had to choose which power they would rely upon when the world exerted its power upon them. Both sites were challenging and sobering experiences for us.

We managed to avoid the rain and we continue to be grateful for good health. Thank you for your prayers for us!
