Sojourners Verse and Voice – 29 March 2024

Verse of the day 
“He will wipe every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more, for the first things have passed away.” 

– Revelation 21:4

Voice of the day 
The cross represents the power that denigrates human bodies, destroys life, and preys on the most vulnerable in society. As the cross is defeated, so too is that power. 

– Rev. Kelly Brown Douglas, “Stand Your Ground: Black Bodies and the Justice of God”

Prayer of the day 

Jesus, we know that the cross does not win. May we stand firm in your power that defeats death itself.
