By Evan Koons

So, while I was out making gratuitous things (there’s this new project I’m working on), Dwight Gibson called. He left me a message about strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, and what that means in the presence of doubt, fear, and anxiety. Give it a listen. In the meantime, I should probably call him back.

Also, here’s a pretty moving rendition of “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” to meditate on. The song starts at 1:00.
