Priscilla and Aquila

Matthew Beck - Acts 18:1-4, 18-19, 24-26. The brief cameos of Priscilla and Aquila in the drama of church history move the plot forward in significant ways and further the Gospel's reach. They turn their displacement into missions. Their business funds the Jesus movement. Their home becomes a place of worship. In short, they add to everything they touch and everyone they encounter. This is the heart of the shift from "Me to We." It is human nature to view the community for what it can give us before we consider what we can give to it. And yet, if our posture toward the church is one of addition, rather than subtraction, the Gospel can multiply, just as in the case of Pricilla and Aquila.
