October 12 - “Act Justly”
What does it look like to act justly in our world? Does it mean we make sure that we follow the rules? If the prophets have taught us anything it's that God is very concerned about how those who are outside of power, who are oppressed, and who are struggling are being treated.
October 19 - “Love Mercy”
We often think mercy is just letting someone off without facing punishment, or shortening that punishment. But the prophets and Jesus point to mercy as being something more, especially as it relates to those who have nothing, who are hungry, and who constantly do without.
October 26 - “Walk Humbly”
Walking through life has its ups and downs. Most of the time we just want our lives to be normal and uneventful. Yet, there are those times when tragedy strikes and we are left trying to put our shattered life back together with broken pieces. If there's one thing that's true in life, it is that there will be times when all is not well.
