This month we will also be offering the Deliver Us Lenten Devotional by the StillSpeaking Writers Group. Climate crises caused by global warming. Strident polarization in communities. Gaping income disparities between the richest of us and the rest of us. The rampage of racism and militarism. The existential and everyday threats we face are daunting. With faithful people across the ages, we cry out to God for deliverance … not only pleading for God to act but seeking the courage to let God act through us. We can take such a risk … or we can play it safe. The Lenten season is a time for each of us to explore the ways in which we promote (or prevent) the deliverance we so desperately seek. This devotional is available for purchase at $5 a book on the Welcome Center.
