Good Morning, Ministry Partner!

Be Encouraged by God's Word
Welcome one another, therefore, just as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God. For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of the truth of God in order that he might confirm the promises given to the patriarchs.

— Romans 15:7-8, NRSV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims

When we genuinely believe that inner transformation is God's work and not ours, we can put to rest our passion to set others straight.

— Richard Foster

Pray Together with Us

Now it is you alone that I love, you alone that I follow, you alone that I seek, ou alone that I feel ready to serve, because you alone rule justly. It is to your authority alone that I want to submit. Command me, I pray, to do whatever you will, but heal and open my ears that I may hear your voice. Heal and open my eyes that I may see your will. Drive out from me all fickleness, that I may acknowledge you alone. Tell me where to look that I may see you, and I will place my hope in doing your will. Amen.

— Augustine

New Every Morning: a daily (M-F) encouragement resource for clergy that includes a scriptural start for the day, a thought from a brother/sister of the faith, and a prayer to enrich the service of the minister. It is an inner life component of the Soul Care ministry of the Church of the Nazarene's Global Clergy Development Office.
