Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer
Today’s Reading: Psalm 12
Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
LORD God,
give me a caring heart
for those who are poor and oppressed.
Help me to demonstrate care
not just in thought but in practical ways
as Jesus would.
Amen.

Listen,
my dear brothers and sisters:
Has not God chosen those who are poor
in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith
and to inherit the kingdom
he promised those who love him?
But you have dishonored the poor.
Is it not the rich who are exploiting you?
Are they not the ones
who are dragging you into court?
Are they not the ones
who are blaspheming the noble name of him
to whom you belong?
(James 2:5-7 NIV)*

New from David Kitz
James—the brother of Jesus—who was this man? What evidence do we have that this “brother of our Lord” even existed?
David Kitz digs deep into archeology, family dynamics, church history, and the biblical texts. What emerges from his research is a portrait of a decisive, pivotal leader who embodied the will and character of Jesus Christ.
But how did James—James the unbeliever—transform to become a leader who changed the course of world history? In these pages you will uncover the answer and rediscover for yourself the life-changing power of the gospel.
