John 20:26
“A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!”
A great verse for 2026
America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.
“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.”
- Jesus
The world (system) will hate Christians. But it’s important to discern the reason.
Do they hate us because we follow the way of Jesus, or do they hate us because we live contrary to him?
The story of the Magi shows us:
1) God is very present in the world to lead us.
2) God's grace extends to all (God leads gentile astrologers to Jesus)
3) An encounter with Jesus "sends us a different way" (Matt 2).

I cannot overstate the gravity of the noble and history-making decision that President Biden just made. The feeling that I have right now is one of profound gratitude.
I am grateful that Joe Biden has been a friend, the most dedicated of public servants, and an extraordinary president.
I was grateful for the opportunity to work with President Biden on some of the most pressing issues facing this nation: passing the expanded child tax credit that significantly reduced child poverty, historic investments in infrastructure, from the Gateway tunnel to urban tree planting to make a healthier environment for all, and defending democratic ideals at home and abroad.
I am grateful that we have a president whose patriotism and love of country drove him to run and win against demagoguery in 2020, and who now, because of that same fierce love and devotion to his fellow Americans, has decided to be the bridge to a new generation of leaders.
60 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was signed into law, a monumental step towards equality.
Today, we honor the legacy of those who have fought for justice in this nation and continue to push for a fair and just society for all.
