Verse of the day
The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
John 10:10
Voice of the day
What is, so to speak, the object of abolition? Not so much the abolition of prisons but the abolition of a society that could have prisons, that could have slavery, that could have the wage, and therefore not abolition as the elimination of anything but abolition as the founding of a new society.
Prayer of the day
God of mercy, possess us with your Spirit of abolition. Fill us with your relentless fire. Use us to destroy empire and all its chains. Use us to accompany the struggles of the oppressed and suffering. May we see the day where those long-subjugated by the state finally inherit the earth. In the name of your Son, Christ Jesus, amen.
