Are you sick of partisanship? Have you felt powerless to do anything about it? Let’s change that! I believe, collectively, we can make a difference.

It’s not new, but it may not have been used precisely in this way before. Practically all religious denominations talk about it in one way or another; it is the power of the intentional pra …
