This four-week devotional is designed with an in-depth reflection on Day One of each week to introduce each topic, with Days Two through Seven featuring centering quotations, questions and opportunities for contemplation. On Day Four of every week, a short story will help you or your small group reflect on how the subject of advocacy touches your own lives. This resource will use the Bible, our Confessions and Presbyterian writings alongside resources from beyond our denomination to help us think about how God is calling us into action and reflection today.
For me it has always been a major meeting of that denominational body that capsulizes the quality, the flavor, the collective personality of that group. And I thought that if I’m going to support PC(USA) students here at Louisville Seminary I’ve got to go to THE meeting that says, ‘this is who we are, this is what we are about, this is what we struggle with, here are the key issues that we allot to us, here is how we argue, here is how we debate, this is how we think hard about important issues that deeply affect us’.

This brief resource was developed as a guide for congregations who might like to host a "Bike there! Bus there! Rideshare!" Sunday, often known as an Alternative Transportation Sunday. Churches choose a day like this to lift up community, health, caring for God's creation, and personal lifestyle commitments. Saving energy and carbon emissions is a huge benefit of this event. Just as important are the fun and community-building that a congregation can have with such a day/week/month!
