“‘No poem will unwrite lawsuits, unseat senators, or unbribe judges.’ No poem will ungrow cancer, yet we still ‘write poems—as leaves give oxygen—so we can breathe.’”

"I came to the conclusion that I could not stay in that role and be healthy. So I chose to be a healthy person over a megachurch pastor, and it was an incredibly hard choice." - Pete Briscoe

Steve's List for Summer 2023: Episode 80- The Welcoming Prayer — Potter's Inn 04/07/2023

This week's pick from Steve!

This is a way of praying that just helps! And help is what most of us seem to need these days. How do we find words to form in prayer when we are knotted up inside; when we are speechless?
