<p><br> God has acted and Jesus has acted … but what are we doing? Jesus wants us to act.<br> That is one of the insights in this book of devotions that William P. “Buddy” Nelson wrote during the COVID-19 pandemic as a way to stay in touch with his faith and to reimagine the future of the church.<br> While writing, he discovered that when living through a pandemic—or a crisis of any kind—God is there to provide a refreshed understanding of His revelation. In fact, God’s message is exactly what we all need to hear in times of personal or professional crisis.<br> While these devotions highlight numerous topics and challenges, the overarching theme focuses on how everyday events can help us understand God’s Word. In doing so, we can learn how to face and overcome challenges with faith rather than fear.<br> Remember when the world is at its darkest place, God challenges his children to shine the brightest!</p>
