Verse of the day

The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood. We saw the glory with our own eyes, the one-of-a-kind glory, like Father, like Son, Generous inside and out, true from start to finish.
John 1:14, The Message (MSG)

Voice of the day

Christians don't simply learn or study or use Scripture; we assimilate it, take it into our lives in such a way that it gets metabolized into acts of love, cups of cold water, missions into all the world, healing and evangelism and justice in Jesus' name, hands raised in adoration of the Father, feet washed in company with the Son.

Eugene H. Peterson

Prayer of the day

Loving God, teach us to see the beauty of this world through Scripture. Help us to embrace, question, and live into the stories of our past, so that we might continue in the work of building a just and loving kingdom here on earth. Amen.
