On Thursday I spoke to 650 students at a public high school in Tennessee that was having racial tensions. I stood in a gymnasium with a microphone and spoke from the heart. I got great questions from the students, thunderous applause at times, and praise from the principal and superintendent. One thing I did was apologize for the mess my generation made for them as I encouraged them to aim higher. I also stressed the importance of the Golden Rule, treat others how you would like to be treated. I hope I get more opportunities to address high school students. On Monday evening, I will speak at my Alma mater, Roanoke College, for the first time in more than a decade. I am excited because I see the young people as our only hope.
As we stand with Erika Kirk and celebrate the life of #CharlieKirk , we can take solace in these verses and many others. We who know Christ, understand our times are in his hands, and that some of us are called to martyrdom. God’s word is clear about this. #death #ErikaKirk
Please pray for leaders and influencers that God places on your heart. It can be a quick (silent) Nehemiah prayer. Pray that God will protect them and draw them ever closer to him.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 (NIV),.
