2020 just doesn’t seem to let up.  I don’t need to remind you of the details of the last six months, we are all living them!  One young mom recently mentioned as she saw the redness of the smoke-filled sky one morning, “It was so eerie, I just started praying for the salvation of my children.”  Others, half in jest, have commented about it being a sign of the end of the world—and in some ways it can feel that…

What have we learned? I think it would be nearly impossible for us to have our lives so dramatically disrupted and not learn some things about this world, ourselves, and what God calls us to as his people.  We’ve learned about epidemiology (even if you don’t know what that word means, trust me, you’ve learned something about it).  We’ve learned about how difficult some of the decisions our governing leaders have made and how important it is to be praying…
