The Beginning of the Lend for Churches
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
"Love looks like an empty sanctuary," one pastor said. But after weeks of not gathering in person, it's the emptiness in the offering plate that's really hurting churches. And it's not necessarily the pastors' salaries or the building upkeep that worries leaders. It's the impact on ministry. "If this keeps up," one Baltimore pastor told the AP, "we can't fund all [of] our outreach to help other people." But, thanks to the Trump administration's insistence that churches be included in the virus relief, the president had good news: Help is on the way! (It just required some last-minute fixes first.)

Evangelist Will Graham to Proclaim Hope of Jesus During Special Livestream Outreach on Good Friday
- By Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- In an age of coronavirus, quarantines and social distancing, Evangelist Will Graham is preparing to proclaim a hope-filled Gospel message on Good Friday. The online outreach will be simulcast from the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte, North Carolina, at 4 p.m. ET on Friday, April 10.
"As we contemplate Jesus' death on the cross -- which we commemorate on Good Friday -- it certainly didn't seem 'good' at the time. Darkness thought it had won. However, Christ conquered the grave and triumphantly rose again," said Graham. "This year things seem bleak, but we know that Jesus' sacrifice and victory means that our present struggles aren't the end of the story. We can find lasting peace and eternal hope in Him, even when the world around us is in turmoil."
