The Daniel prayer is a no-holds-barred, go-for-broke, nothing-held-back way of praying. It is not a prayer that you necessarily pray every day. It is a prayer that is born out of desperation, just a heart's longing, a heart's cry.
Do you ever struggle to pray — to fully commit to prayer? Take a tip from Daniel and prepare to pray so that heaven is moved and God answers. |

Hebrews 13:3 calls us to "remember those in prison." We can't all minister in prisons, but there is an amazing opportunity to reach men and women with what they need most: God's Word! There is nothing short of a revival happening behind prison walls, and Bibles are needed desperately in America's prisons. Help Prison Fellowship send Bibles and life-changing Christian content to prisoners. |

September 16 — An American pastor who was detained in China for nearly 20 years was released and has returned home. David Lin, 68, frequently traveled to China to spread the gospel throughout the 1990s and 2000s until he was detained for "contract fraud" (a common charge against Christians unregistered with the government) in 2006. Lin's family expressed joy and gratitude: "God did it!!!" his daughter said. (Religion News Service) |
| September 17 — Gen Z are significantly more likely to have poor mental health (19%) than older generations (7%), reports the State of the Bible survey in their latest chapter. But Bible engagement can help. Bible-engaged Gen Z scored 3.4 on the anxiety scale, compared with more than twice that (7.1) for their Bible-disengaged peers. These and similar findings in the report can help inform ministry outreach. (Baptist Press, from State of the Bible) |
| September 17 — An Oregon town will have to pay $400,000 to a local church for violating their religious freedom. St. Timothy's Episcopal Church fought back against a city ordinance preventing them from carrying out their ministry of feeding and caring for the town's homeless population. The settlement will cover the church's legal fees, plus a donation to the Oregon Justice Resource Center. (The Christian Century) |

The books of the Bible were written over a period of over a millennium and a half, with the oldest parts composed around 1500-1400 BC and the most recent from the late first century AD. If you want to get more precise, though, it's important to understand that the process of dating books of the Bible involves a bit (or a lot) of guesswork. |
