Verse & Voice – Sojourners – 12 February 2020

Verse of the day

Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? – James 2:15-16 (NIV)

Voice of the day

Where collective care stems from a wide network of people building power with each other, disposability spawns from other hierarchies of people expressing power over others. – Estelle Ellison

Prayer of the day

God, remind us of the times we have chosen hierarchy over community, disposability over value, and division over unity. Encourage us to prioritize collective care at every level.
