I come away from a time of prayer more convinced that Daniel is a key model for the way we need to live as believers in America going forward. The script has flipped, but the nostalgia is tearing up the older generation of the church (of which I am very much a part).

This piece demonstrates the ease with which we can be swept away by powerful moments.

We must be aware of the dangers of the new fascism, resurgence of Christian nationalism, and the recycling of dominionism in our culture and in the American white conservative church. We search for certitude. We need to seek CHRIST and him crucified.
