					<description><![CDATA[When I told an acquaintance I taught a class on listening to God, he said, &#8220;Give me two minutes. What&#8217;s one thing that would help me hear His voice?&#8221; I told him the most common barrier I see is distraction: we don&#8217;t position ourselves where we can hear Him. Phones buzz, feeds scroll, alerts chime, [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There are moments in the life of a congregation when the question isn&#8217;t simply where it&#8217;s been, but where God is calling it to go next. That was the focus of a recent Revive Weekend at St. Andrew’s Anglican Church in Delta, British Columbia, where Canon Mark Eldredge worked with the congregation and its leadership [&#8230;]]]></description>

That is exactly what we should be doing. After all, serious allegations were made, and the Church investigated those allegations and determined they warranted a [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Twenty-five years ago today, our nation experienced one of the darkest days in its history. Most of us who were old enough to remember September 11, 2001, can still tell you where we were when we first heard the news. We remember the images from New York, Washington, and Pennsylvania. We remember the confusion of [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Jesus was very clear about the mission He gave His Church: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). For two thousand years, Christians rightly returned to those words as our Great Commission. We&#8217;re called not simply to make converts or add people to church membership rolls, but to make disciples of Jesus [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[“My sheep hear my voice.” (John 10:27) An older woman was widely regarded as a saint — servant-hearted, wise, and joyful in the Lord. Then one Sunday she heard her rector preach that God spoke to him about a direction for their congregation. She lamented, “I wonder why God never speaks to me like that.” [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[“How do I hear thee? Let me count the ways…” There are several ways in Scripture and throughout the history of the Church that God&#8217;s faithful people have listened to Him and received His guidance.
