Verse of the day
The spirit of the Lord God is upon me because the Lord has anointed me; he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the prisoners.
Isaiah 61:1
Voice of the day
If incarceration worked to secure safety, we would be the safest nation in all of human history. … If incarceration worked to stop violence, we would have eradicated it by now—because no nation has used incarceration more.
Prayer of the day
God of freedom, may we take your words seriously. May we work toward a world of repair and relationship, not violence and isolation.
