Food For Thought: This time of the season brings about many emotions to name a few Joy, Hope, Anxiety Etc. for different people for different reasons. The gospel calls us to imagine and to press for freedom/hope with both strong teaching and sacrificial acts of love.
We love our God and our neighbor fully when we raise our voices, against oppression and proclaim God’s favor on everyone. God has carried and will carry us through this season has He has done before.
