1 Corinthians 15:3-4

Voice of the day

The God we yearn to know more deeply is the God of Jesus, the God of the prophets, the God of the two testaments—a gracious, loving Creator, a God of shalom and justice, a God who intervenes in our history, who shatters the weapons of war and foils the power of nations and empires.

Will O'Brien, “Be Still and Know”

Prayer of the day

Lord, let us yearn to be a people who join you in your interventions in our history.
