Apparently there's a 'color of the year.' If 2021 had a word of the year, what would it be? Join me as we begin an exploration of anxiety, and how God and his Scripture can lead us from anxiety to hope.
Application: Paul Tautges, pastor and counselor, in his devotional 'Anxiety - Knowing God's Peace' suggests making a 'care list' - all those things that weigh on our minds and hearts - and turning it into our 'prayer list.' A good, practical idea!

Music Today: 'The Road, the Rocks, and the Weeds', John Mark McMillan. One of last year's finest CCM songs, this is one of the few I know that draws on the Parable of the Sower and points us to the One who is able to walk through the thicket of cares to reach us.

'A Million Stars', IonaThis Scottish band produced a number of classic albums, my favorite being 'An Open Sky', based on the life and ministry of Columba. My favorite music for late night driving, and a reminder of God's peace.
