“It’s not a police issue, it’s a society issue. You know, impoverished neighborhoods, people without hope do these kinds of things. You show me a man that doesn’t have hope and I’ll show you a man who’s willing to pick up a gun and do anything with it.” —Eddie Johnson, Police Superintendent of Chicago [from Chicago Tonight’s Special Edition “Violence in Chicago” September 20, 2016]
Join us at our midweek prayer meeting this Wednesday, October 5, at 6pm where the readings will explore the theme of reclaiming hope.
Surely there is a future, and our hope will not be cut off.
—Proverbs 23:18
