Weekly happenings at DC Reading Rooms — podcast: a spiritual answer to polarization

A spiritual answer to polarization

Feeling concerned about the political divide? This week’s guest shares how prayer has played a central role in her work in the halls of government and has shown her that when progress seems impossible and people seem polarized, God reveals a way forward and brings us together.

thought for the week

Walk in the light, and thou shalt own
Thy darkness past away,
Because that light on thee hath shone
In which is perfect day.
