Revival
Football Faith
As we begin a New Year, it’s tempting to zero in on the immense geo-political movements in our world like the coming inauguration of President Trump (for the second time), the recent resignation of Canadian president Justin Trudeau (and Canada jokingly becoming our 51st state), the fall of Syria, or the quagmire and suffering in Ukraine.
We shall prayerfully analyze all these in 2025 for prayer and action.
But–this first week in January–how about–FOOTBALL.
As one writer puts it, something incredible is happening.
Giving Thanks for an American Awakening
Though Christmas is upon us, I’m still full of “Thanksgiving” for an American awakening taking place across our land.
I know Kamala Harris received 74 million votes in the past election. The nation is divided. And most elections don’t portend that revival is taking place.
But many thoughtful voices believe a cultural turning is happening in the United States that could become a full-blown awakening (as happened in the 18th and 19th centuries).
Be encouraged–and continue to pray.
Transformers
The incoming Trump administration is committed to transforming the federal government which could affect all American society.
Our young kids loved “transformer” toys because they could be manipulated into various shapes. So can whole societies, but that’s a much bigger job.
2025 will be an exciting year in American history when a political tidal wave could transform the USA. Great change doesn’t emerge in a vacuum. It often comes bottom up (a people revolution) and other times, top down (new leadership). Sometimes it is both, simultaneously.
Transformation is the third prong of revival–and the transformers are coming.
