When the world quakes, how should Christians react?

The attempted assassination of Trump – and the loss of a heroic father in the crowd – deeply disoriented people across the U.S.

I've felt the same feeling many times. I'm sure you have, too. Catastrophes like 9/11, various wars, natural disasters, commercial jet crashes, and so many others have lodged in our collective life experience.

Over the past weekend, history played out before our eyes; evil struck in plain view. The supernatural clashed with the visible in a tremor felt globally.

We thank God the bullet was averted (I believe by the hand of God.) But even so, the world has still transformed.

Will it be for the better? Only God knows, of course.

I believe this moment is a call for Christians to be bold. Not merely in our rhetoric, but through action and example.

The one thing we need to do more than anything else is love courageously.

That may look like reconciliation, forgiveness, or a pursuit of unity in your workplace or home.

Let's lead the way!
