 Art leads us into our most tender thoughts. It invites us to hold with an open hand the things we're learning about our pain and trials. It tells us to look in a certain direction while so much happens outside of the frame. It invites us to consider our own limits and mortality. It has a way of freezing moments in time, holding them in a still frame as we seek to understand them.
Through Rembrandt's painting "Jeremiah Lamenting the Destruction of Jerusalem," pastor and author Russ Ramsey demonstrates the intricate art and poetry of lament. | |

November 1 — The World Evangelical Alliance designated the next two Sundays — Nov. 3 and Nov. 10 — as International Days of Prayer for the Persecuted Church around the world. David Platt, founder of international ministry Radical, offered some reminders on what a persecuted Christian is and called us to intercede for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ worldwide, knowing that we may need them to do the same someday. (Christianity Today) |
| November 2 — Despite increased polarization in America, most Protestant U.S. churchgoers have friends who do not share their beliefs. According to Lifeway Research, 71% have non-Christian friends. Non-evangelicals are more likely than evangelicals to report non-Christian friends. Lifeway suggests this could mean evangelicals are sharing the gospel more with strangers or "not being proactive in their convictions." (Religion Unplugged) |
| November 2 — Old Testament scholar Matthieu Richelle suggests literacy in ancient Israel and Judah may have been even less common than previously thought. "In Biblical times," he said, "there was no Bible yet!" Most books came later, and what did exist was printed on expensive papyrus and exclusively for the priestly elite. Still, the extensive library composed before and after exile speaks to the cultural value of written works. (Jerusalem Post) |

| We live in a troubled and fear-filled world.
In fact, Jesus tells us it will only intensify. His description of what's on the horizon is sobering: "'Men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth'" (Luke 21:26 NKJV). What's the antidote to all this anxiety? As best-selling author and pastor John Bevere demonstrates, those who fear God can find freedom from all other fear. | |
