## Resource

It was a thrill to have our friend Ericka Graham join as our guest preacher this weekend, inviting us into a dense and evocative story. Across the sea, Jesus approaches a man with a grave affliction; an encounter revealed to be more than merely an exorcism. Jesus guides us ever to the margins, rejecting the hollow power of empire, liberating the oppressed, and empowering us all to bear witness to God’s restorative goodness. (sermon begins at 01:00) Scripture & Quotations Luke 8:26-39 “Sometimes the terror we know is more tolerable than the peace we can’t imagine." - Evan Garner “Evil can hide in systems much more readily than individuals.” - Richard Rohr “Jesus liberates the captive by restoring him to his community.” - Isaac Villegas
