Sojourners Verse and Voice – 15 January 2024

Verse of the day
So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time, if we do not give up.

– Galatians 6:9

Voice of the day
Now let us begin. Now let us re-dedicate ourselves to the long and bitter – but beautiful – struggle for a new world.

– Martin Luther King Jr.

Prayer of the day
Jesus, you are the one who upset tables. Remind us that while direct service and personal moments of reflection have their place, to truly struggle for a new world we must have courage to organize, preach, vote, write, and agitate in a way that places anti-capitalism at the center of the beloved community.

– Adapted from Andrew Wilkes, “MLK Rooted His Anti-Capitalism in His Christian Ministry”
