Verse of the day

Do nothing from selfish ambition or empty conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to your own interests but to the interests of others.
Philippians 2:3-4

Voice of the day

I’m fundamentally a hopeful person, because I know that decisions made the world as it is and that better decisions can change it. Nothing about our situation is inevitable or immutable, but you can't solve a problem with the consciousness that created it.

Heather McGhee, “The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together” (2021)

Prayer of the day

Lord, we make decisions every day that affect others. Help us to consider the needs of others as we pursue better decisions for the sake of the world.
