On Friday we come come together to pray for a change in the President, and, barring that change; a change in the Presidency.

On Fridays, we come together to pray for a change in the President, and, barring that change; a change in the Presidency.

Today we are looking at the people who vote for a President, and the pastors who lead many of them. We are praying that these pastors, specifically white Christian pastors, will publicly and courageously denounce Donald Trump and his moral failure.

Specifically today, we are thinking and praying about the theology of the ballot box: That is, the theology of democracy, the theology of voting, and the theology of politics.

Will you join us as we pray that these pastors step forward and shepherd their congregations? You can read our call to clergy here, and then you can sign the letter yourself and share with clergy, faith leaders, and pastors in your life.
