How the good news of God’s grace spreads, and to whom it spreads, tells us much about it’s character; namely, it is a disruptive grace. This is what we see in the early church as they face persecution, however, the disruption leads to expansion. Instead of the opposition stamping out the church, it is propels the church forward all over the world. God intends his good news to do the same in our lives individually and corporately.
