A JOURNEY TO HEALING AND WHOLENESS “After the reggae play the blues.” That lyric lingers, doesn’t it? Life has a way of shifting without warning—one moment you’re dancing in the light, the next you’re swallowed by shadow.

Readings: Acts 5:12–16; Psalm 118; Revelation 1:9–13, 17–19; John 20:19–31 Grace and peace to you, dear brothers and sisters in the Lord.
