The pressure is pervasive. Try as we may to change the channel or tip-toe around it, there isn’t a soul who doesn’t sense the undertow of tension within an election cycle. As such, perhaps you’ve pondered the question: ‘How do I navigate November and not lose my mind, religion, or relationships?’ In a country too often confined to camps of “us” and “them” how can we build a greater witness in a world of proverbial walls?
In a time when we toss around words like, “war rooms” and “battleground states,” we follow in the way of a Lord who not only blurs our boundaries but tests our loyalties and then leads us to take a hard look at who we are:
In Christ, we’re cut from a different cloth and in a nation of red and blue, we’re charged with a different challenge: To be a people of the purple church.
Luke 10: 25-37
