Prayer: Shine, Jesus, shine and let us shine your light forever. Amen.
Reading: Daniel 12: 1-3 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: Later this month, we will celebrate a new church year as we begin the season of Advent once again. As we get ready for that, the scripture readings in November often talk about the end times. This passage is one of them. I like the last verse of this passage: “Those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.” Knowing that our eternal life is secure, it’s great to know that we shall shine forever. Live in the good of that knowledge today. --Chad Hershberger
