This Friday, November 14, the National Cathedral will host a Muslim prayer service. A Muslim spokesperson for the event said, “We want the world to see the Christian community is partnering with us and is supporting our religious freedom in the same way we are calling for religious freedom for all minorities in Muslim countries.” The director of the Cathedral’s liturgy affirmed that “this needs to be a world in which all are free to believe and practice and in which we avoid bigotry, Islamaphobia, racism, anti-Semitism, and anti-Christianity and to embrace our humanity and to embrace faith.”

The solution to spiritual dryness may not be as complicated as we think. Let the coming year be one in which we learn to delight in the whole Word of God!
Most believers agree that regular time in the Word is vital to their spiritual health. However, in practice, many of us have discovered the time commitment does not present itself without effort.
