Fill your minds and hearts with the things of God.
The United States (and much of the rest of the world) is in a strange lull before the full tsunami of the energy crisis hits us in the coming weeks. It would be wise to pay attention before the full effects hit. https://t.co/MoUK2I1OYt
God, we pray for the United States.
We pray for peace across our land.
We pray against violence.
Keep all leaders safe from harm.
Help us to love our neighbors, strangers, and even our enemies.
Turn our hearts toward you and your ways.
Convict us of our sins.
May hard days cause a spiritual renewal in the land.
Heal those traumatized by violence and death.
Help us to be quick to forgive one another.
Bring your light to the hidden evils of our land.
We confess we have lost our way.
Give us new mercy and grace today.

The Gospel still has power. To transform. To inspire. To cleanse. To reconcile. To redeem. To forgive. To open eyes. To bring justice. To give hope. To heal nations.
It's been a great opening day at @MissionNext's #MissionConnexion. One of the talks this evening was by @edstetzer on John 20 and the call to follow the lead of Christ in a living a bold missional life that is shaped more by faith than fear.
