Citizen Discipleship
Show Notes

"Disciples of Jesus should be desperate citizens. The desperate citizen will press their citizenship as far as possible for the sake of thwarting death and its agents." Pastor Amy explores the work of theologian Willie James Jennings and discusses the way our citizenship in nation should be engaged in relationship to our citizenship in the Reign of God.  Now is not the time to opt out, when so many have had to fight desperately to be included.

Sermon begins at 22:32
