God isn't offering us an umbrella for the hurricane. He's inviting us into the eye.
From Steph Juliot, writer at The Pour Over, a politically neutral, Christ-centered news source trusted by 1.6 million Christians
For anyone who's ever felt overwhelmed by a constant, heavy news cycle
Opening our news apps can feel like opening the door to a hurricane. The storm of bad news intensifies the illusion that we are alone, unprotected, or hopeless. Heavy headlines and the dread of something terrible happening is taking its toll on us, leaving us anxious, angry, and drained.
But prayer interrupts the whirlwind.
We can no more ignore the world around us than we can stop drinking water. Praying the News equips Christians to process significant or troubling events by guiding them in prayer. This beautiful resource includes over 100 prayers for:
- Storms, earthquakes, natural disasters
- Suicides, mass shootings, accidents
- Global conflict, civil war, terrorists, nuclear threats
- Politicians, courts, elections
- News about gender identity, abortion, education
- The rise and fall of markets
- Artificial intelligence and technological advancements
- And many more
Through these rich prayers, readers:
- Cultivate a heart of faith rather than fear
- Build a habit of prayer-soaked news consumption
- Acquire language for petitioning God about burdensome news
- Incorporate Scripture into our news diet and prayer times
- Grow to trust God and experience quiet in tumultuous times
- Respond to current events with hope and good works rather than fight or flight instincts
- Worship our loving, sovereign, future-knowing, eternal God
Prayer pushes back against our doom-and-gloom culture and reminds us that our needs are not lost on God. Our future is not uncertain, and the story's good ending is just a matter of time. With robust and faith-filled petitions, Praying the News invites us to absorb the headlines with peace and hope.
