When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

God’s people were taken into exile, not just because of their disobedience, but specifically because they refused to rest. The Sabbath was never meant to be just another religious obligation—it was a gift, a rhythm designed to bring life, renewal, and trust in God’s provision. When we neglect rest, we don’t just burn ourselves out; we also fail to create space for God to move. The post Jerusalem’s Fall appeared first on Ottawa Church of Christ .…
It is difficult to fathom the devastation that fell upon God’s people when Jerusalem and the temple were destroyed. The physical ruins were but a fraction of the sorrow.

The hopes and dreams of Israel also crumbled with Jerusalem’s walls.

The prophets were certainly concerned with the world, but they were also concerned with the hearts of God’s people. We prophetically demonstrate God’s word when we serve the marginalized, but we must also teach prophetic messages within our congregations. Remember, prophecy is not about predicting the future, but rather, an honest look at the current state of affairs through the lens of God’s Word. The post Judah’s Prophets appeared first on Ottawa Church of Christ .…
God has always dreamed for justice in society and we’ve already seen visions of justice in the Law. Prophets, like Amos and others, radically remind people of the heart of God from the Mosaic covenant. As leaders in God’s kingdom, we too should remind people of God’s heart and give them opportunities to respond. Depending on the makeup of your group, this can be difficult because of the disunity in our world. The post Israel’s Prophets appeared first on Ottawa Church of Christ .…
