Wake up… before it’s too late. Believers in an American setting today are surrounded by secular distractions at a constant rate. Materialistic promotion and sexual or violent temptation are accessible at the fingertips of every person in moments. Taking part in the vicious cycle, Americans strive for worldly success in the form of wealth and social status in our consumeristic culture.

The passage I am rewriting comes directly after the Passover meal with Jesus’ disciples. Luke 22:39-41, Jesus has just gone up to the Mount of Olives with his disciples and as they approached the top, he told them to pray.

I wrote “A Man in the Wind” to open people’s eyes to see how often we lose ourselves and our faith in the midst of our sinful world. Only God’s love can bring us back into the light of truth, but if we want to receive his light, we need to open our hearts and minds to Him. – Anna Africa

Exodus 17:10-13. Before this point the Amalekites have attacked Israel at Rephidim. Moses tells Joshua to gather the strongest fighters and go into war. He promises that he shall stand above where the Israelites and Amalekites are engaged in battle with the staff in his hands. Our narrative picks up with Moses standing above the Israelite people raising the staff above his head. – Anna VanHuis
