%X Luke¡¯s presentation of the encounter with a demon-possessed slave girl (Acts 16:16¨C40) is considered in intertextual dialogue with recalled missional experiences with children in Brazilian favelas. The study offers an example of the hermeneutical potential of scriptural-experiential dialogue to inform the missional enterprise, in this instance helping to expose the ¡°lords¡± of enslaving contra-kingdom power structures that challenge missional enterprise in situations of deprivation, while also highlighting the transformative lordship of Jesus
