Verse of the day

For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Romans 14:17 (NIV)

Voice of the day

The Christian story is that despite the coming of death, there is resurrection, there is life. There is an afterword. There is joy. That is the Black joy. We don't want to be overcome or overwhelmed by the tentacles of white violence and white superiority. But we want to, in spite of that, as we resist, as we fight it, we want to remember the joy that we have. 

Rev. Eboni Marshall Turman

Prayer of the day

God, help us to resist, thrive, and capture joy today.
