Presidential Inauguration & MLK Day {Daily Dash: January 20, 2025}

IN MY LIFE:

Listening to Dave Chappelle in the cold open/monologue of SNL this past week, I was shocked he was able to say a lot of what he said. But then he finished by saying something that not only caught me off guard, but that was quite astute. Essentially, he said we all need to “do better”.

I don’t mention it regularly, but I wrote a book about a decade ago called “Raising Uncommon Kids” about how to raise more selfless kids. Sometimes big problems make us feel helpless, but like I discussed in the book, we need to act locally before we can think globally. And truly, that means starting within the walls of our homes and in our communities. 

I pray we all think that way as we strive to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. today and as our nation embarks upon a new year with a new President.

IN THE NEWS:

  • Inauguration Day
  • Martin Luther King Jr. Day
  • Ohio State beat Notre Dame in College Football Championship Game

IN THE WORD:

Service to God is the deliberate love-gift of a nature that has heard the call of God-Oswald Chambers

PRAYER FOCUS: Stability

I’ll be honest, I’ve never thought to pray for stability, but that’s the word that came to mind as I was walking and talking to you today.    

Stay in the know on the go:

I hope you have a great day, make sure you make it great, and do not wait to tell someone you love how you feel about them!
