In this devotion, Daniel J. Valasakos ’96 M.Div., meditates on being who we are—people filled with and led by the Holy Spirit. Read today’s God Pause.

Whether it’s the church basement that hasn’t seen activities and festivities for decades, the sanctuary that’s only used for a few hours on Sunday morning, the vacant strip mall down the road (and its adjacent parking lot), or the growing number of downtown skyscrapers sitting underutilized, an opportunity is in front of us—an opportunity to tell new stories, create new identities, shift community narratives of who we are and what is possible. Join Flourish Placemaking on Thursday May 16, 1:00 – 6:30 p.m. at the Loft Literary Center in Minneapolis for an afternoon and evening of vision, collaboration, and storytelling (and good food and drinks and entertainment). We will usher in a new season of thinking and action around how space can remain in a constant state of readiness to serve our neighbors’ best. If you’re a student interested in attending, please contact Grace Pomroy: gpomroy001@luthersem.edu—scholarships may be available.
