Secret Slave Prayer Meeting “One of my family’s ancestors who was present in these prayer meetings (See May 2, 2018) passed down the story of the secret prayer around the kettle. These slaves didn’t believe they would ever see freedom in their own lifetimes, so they prayed for the freedom of their children and their children’s children. They risked their lives to pray for the freedom of future generations.” (Will Ford in The Dream King)1 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Pray for the sins of this generation to end, for the sake of your children’s and children’s children’s generation. Intercede for another Great Awakening, and the ending of racism, abortion, addictions, mysogyny, sexual perversion, gender confusion, human trafficking, and any other thing the Lord brings to your mind that needs His intervention to set captives free in this nation. Taking a stand in God’s love for these freedoms can put you right in the crosshairs of those who don’t know God or His love for them. Pray for them anyway. Show them His love anyway. Run for government offices, school boards and other municipal boards. Or support those in office. Get to know those in these offices and make suggestions for statutes and legislation for the sake of our generations to come. A prayer you can pray: Lord, we will pray for Your freedom in our nation with passion, even if we don’t see things shift in our generation. For the sake of our children and grandchildren, we will pray. Give us another Great Awakening! Heal our nation of racism, abortion, addictions, mysogyny, sexual perversion, gender confusion, human trafficking and any other thing that needs Your intervention to set captives free in this nation. We will choose to love those who do not understand or agree with us. Grace us to love them anyway. Show us if You want us to run for governmental office or how we can support those that are representing us in policy-making positions from the local to the national level. In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree our intercession will provide for our children to live in a truly free America! 1 Will Ford and Matt Lockett. The Dream King. New Type Publishing, 2018. Pg. 27.

A Providential Kettle “In spite of the danger, my enslaved family members would sneak into a barn late at night while everyone else was asleep, making sure their prayer meetings were never seen or heard. As they carefully opened the door, they eased into the barn, carrying the black cast-iron kettle. Once inside, they turned the kettle upside down, so the opening was on the dirt floor of the barn; then they placed rocks under the rim of the kettle to prop it up… They would lie on the ground, prostrate around the kettle, with their mouths close to the opening. The kettle would then muffle their voices as they prayed softly through the night.” (Will Ford in The Dream King)1 “The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.” (Psalm 138:8; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Try to imagine the desperation of the slaves that were the forefathers and mothers of many African Americans living today, including Will Ford. If you have stories of praying for deliverance passed down in your family, ponder them. Thank the Lord for ending slavery in America, but also acknowledge that generational pain is not yet healed. Ask God to work miracles, as this generation prays and acts, to deliver this nation from all of the effects of racism on our culture. Determine to love others as you want to be loved, regardless of race. Pray for the freedom of those trapped in modern-day slavery—human trafficking and sex trafficking. A prayer you can pray: Father, thank you for Will Ford sharing his story and the stories his family passed down, so we can understand the heartache and faith of former American slaves. Many of our Black brothers and sisters are still treated as inferior today, and this needs to stop! Just as Will’s family put their hope and trust in You to set them free, Lord, we put our hope in you to end the conflict between races in America today. We know the racial divides in the U.S. are not completely healed yet. This has to happen one heart at a time. Stir us to intercede and take action to come together across the races to see this injustice fully end in our nation. As we pray, set those free who are trapped in modern-day slavery, in human trafficking and sex trafficking. Thank you, Jesus. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree an end to racism in America in my generation! 1 Will Ford and Matt Lockett. The Dream King. New Type Publishing, 2018. Pg. 27. Purchase “The Dream King” here.

National Day of Prayer 2018 – “Unity” (We are altering our normal format to come into unity with the prayer format from The National Day of Prayer Task Force. Please pray over each of these national issues.) “Division abounds in almost every segment of America. Sadly, it exists even between Christians and in most churches. For too long, disunity has triumphed in our nation. It is time for this to come to an end. Our greatest hope lies only in Jesus Christ, His Gospel, and the advancement of this Good News message reaching every corner of America and across this world. While we call out to God for His Church to be revived by the Spirit and come together in unity and simultaneously pray extraordinarily for the next Great Spiritual Awakening in America, I want to ask you to consider these four actions for all Christians right now. 1. Rest in the Lord Resting in the Lord is not lying down; it is trusting in the Lord. Jesus is still Lord and God is still on the throne. One day, every leader in our nation, from the most unrecognized part of American society to the members of the highest court of our land, will stand in front of the Highest Court of Eternity, God Himself, and give an account to Him. They will not be alone. Each of us will give an account of our lives to God. A call to action is important, but at times we also need to pause. We need to get before God. Rest in Him. Our God has all things under control. 2. Come Together in Unity Followers of Christ need each other more than ever before. While certain secondary doctrinal differences will exist, we need to unite around the beliefs that: The Bible is God’s infallible Word; it is Truth without any mixture of error. Jesus is the Son of God and the hope of the world; therefore, salvation is faith alone in Christ alone. We must focus our lives, churches, and futures on taking the gospel of Jesus Christ to every person in America and across the world. We need to stop fighting over secondary issues and rise up together to become the spiritual light in this darkening America and World. 3. Prepare for the Future What will the Church become in the future of America? Will we lose our freedom or have it affirmed? We need to prepare for the future realistically, but also with great hope. Regardless of the present cultural tide that is rising in direct opposition to the ways of God, we are a gospel people committed to Christ alone. Our future is not in the hands of the United States government; our future is in the Hands of our Sovereign God. We need to prepare future generations spiritually and vocationally for what God wants them to be and how He wants them to live for Him. 4. Pray Like Never Before for the Next Great Spiritual Awakening Minute by minute, day by day, a stronger conviction is growing that America must have the next Great Spiritual Awakening in our generation. Without a mighty revival in the Church and an awakening in the land that will result in millions coming to Christ, we are facing days that will become darker and more difficult. Yet, I am abounding with greater hope than ever before. I believe God wants greatly to awaken the sleeping giant called the Church! The alarm clock is going off in our nation and this is not the time to push the snooze button. I do not believe the Church will sleep through this season in America. We need a mighty, nationwide movement of prayer to take place now. Prayer precedes every great movement of God biblically and historically. Rise together now, stand upon God’s Word unashamedly, forward the message of the gospel exponentially, and pray relentlessly every day for the next Great Spiritual Awakening in America. I choose to believe God. Now is the Time to Lead and to Pray for America, Ronnie W. Floyd Senior Pastor, Cross Church President, National Day of Prayer

A Korean Symbol of Peace Reuniting families divided for decades is one of the promises made last week when the heads of North and South Korea met to discuss a plan for peace. Leadership around the world is cautiously optimistic about the coming plan. Family members wept at the thought of seeing one another again—can this really be true? One hopeful sign emerged on Friday after lunch. A pine tree was jointly planted. “…A pine tree – standing for peace and prosperity – with soil and water from both countries.”1 It was thought to have been seeded in 1953 at the end of the Korean War. It may now become a symbol of the answer to the prayers of millions of Korean saints praying for 65 years for the unity of their families and their nations. “Evergreens will grow in place of thorn bushes, firs will grow in place of nettles; they will be a monument to the Lord, a permanent reminder that will remain.” (Isaiah 55:13; NET) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Pray for the citizens of both North and South Korea, as they begin to hope again. Ask the Lord to bless the praying Church of Korea, both North and South, for their 65 years of intercession toward the freedom of their nations. Intercede for the reuniting of families across the borders. Ask God for a great harvest of souls to begin in North and South Korea! There can be a spiritual unification, while the physical one is being developed. A prayer you can pray: Father, Korea is on Your heart! Nothing happens by accident and we believe the planting of an evergreen tree by North and South Korea was a sign from You that You are answering the 65 years of prayers of the people of Korea. Let it become a monument of Your faithfulness to answer the prayers of  Your people. Reunite families and reunite a nation. Let no future plan of man stop fathers, mothers, children, aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents from seeing one another, holding one another, and praying with one another, ever again! Send revival to Korea now, Lord—a great harvest of souls! In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree that Korea and its families will be reunited now! 1 Smith, Nicola, et. al., “Kim Jong-un and Moon Jae-in commit to Korean ‘peace regime’ to end nuclear conflict at historic summit”. www.thetelegraph.co.uk, 4/27/18. 5/1/18.

North and South Korea A few months ago, I felt a strong urging from the Holy Spirit to pray for the removal of Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea. He was threatening South Korea, the U.S. and other nearby nations with nuclear war. We also prayed for the unification of North and South Korea. The primary goal of our intercession was to see revival sparked in both North and South Korea in place of oppression and fear. Well, things calmed down and on Friday of last week, South Korea’s president Moon Jae-In and North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, met and signed an agreement to work on a peace treaty between the two nations in exchange for North Korea’s denuclearization.1 N. Korea has promised peace under his father’s regime in response to severe sanctions. They didn’t keep their promise. So, don’t stop praying for the Korean peninsula. “You say, ‘I choose the appointed time; it is I who judge with equity. When the earth and all its people quake, it is I who hold its pillars firm.’” (Psalm 75:2-5; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Pray for the peace of North and South Korea—the peace that only God and His plans can give. Intercede for those who will write the peace agreement between the two nations. Ask God to judge and uncover any motives other than peace and cooperation between these two nations whose people are loved by God. Pray for hope to arise in the Church in these nations. Let them intercede like never before. Join them! Declare that this is the time for the prayers of Korean saints of both nations to be answered. Say to the enemy, “Set Korea free!” A prayer you can pray: Jesus, I come to You to ask You to be the peace of North and South Korea. You have heard and answered the prayers of the saints of these two nations to bring them to this point of a possible peace treaty. Let Your hand be the One that guides those who will negotiate and write this treaty. Judge the motives behind what has brought these leaders to this historic moment and let Your love put the words on the pages. Grant a renewed hope to the Church of both nations, so they are encouraged to press in with renewed intercessory passion! I declare that their prayers will be answered! In Your loving name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree that North and South Korea shall be free and united! 1 Sang-Hun, Choe. North and South Korea Set Bold Goals: A Final Peace and No Nuclear Arms. www.nytimes.com, 4/27/18. Accessed 4/29/18.

Bringing Heaven to Earth We recently went through one of the greatest harvests of souls and outpourings of Holy Spirit in history. It was called the Charismatic movement. It is thought that upwards of 50 million people worldwide came into the Kingdom in that move of God. We saw salvations, healings, and baptisms in the Holy Spirit…and we actually lost ground! While we were getting them saved, we were losing the culture. While we were getting them saved, unbelievers were discipling the nation. While we were getting people saved and healed and ready for heaven, unbelievers were taking over government, and education, and the media. They were even taking over elements of the Church and the family and business. While we were doing Mark 16, they were doing Matthew 28. They didn’t call it that, but that’s what happened. So, we don’t just get people ready for heaven, but we need to bring Heaven into the earth. “Jesus came up and said to them, ‘All authority (all power of absolute rule) in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations[help the people to learn of Me, believe in Me, and obey My words], baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always [remaining with you perpetually—regardless of circumstance, and on every occasion], even to the end of the age.’” (Matthew 28:18-20; AMP) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Tell the Lord you want the whole harvest now—the harvest of souls and the harvest of societal reformation. Intercede for the Body of Christ to understand how to walk in Matthew 28, in the place of societal reformation. Ask the Lord for strategies to get the Church back, the family back, and business back. Ask Him how the Ekklesia should pray and act to get government, education, media, and the arts back. Tell Him you want to know how to disciple America in one or more of these areas of authority. A prayer you can pray: Father, I want to see the whole harvest. I want both a harvest of souls and a harvest of reformation in America. Show the Body of Christ how to walk in the place of reformation. Show us how to pray and act to get the family and our churches back. Show us how to have transformational businesses. Show us how to reclaim government, education, media, and the arts. Show me how to disciple those within my realm of authority (name it), until we, together, see They Kingdom come and Thy Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree a Matthew 28 fulfillment is coming to the United States of America!

Two Parts of God’s Whole Plan The re-commissionings of Mark 16 and Matthew 28 are two parts of a whole. All we have been doing is Mark 16. It’s all we really could do until now. The reason is because we did not have apostles and prophets who knew who they were and were comfortable in their roles. You cannot do Matthew 28 without apostles and prophets. You only need evangelists, pastors, and teachers to fulfill Mark 16. That’s what you need to get people saved, healed and delivered. You don’t have to have apostles and prophets to have growing congregations full of healthy Christians that love each other and have healthy families. We’ve been doing that for a loooong time. You can only do Matthew 28 when you begin to steward the earth and disciple nations and transform nations into those that are Kingdom-thinking and Kingdom-principled. You can only do that with apostles and prophets. “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you.’” (Matthew 28:18-20a;NKJV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Call for those anointed by God as apostles and prophets to recognize and step into their roles. Ask the Lord to lovingly hold back those that call themselves apostles and prophets and are not. It causes confusion when people title themselves. Thank the Lord for the work of the pastors, teachers and evangelists. Bless those you know by name. We would not be where we are without them! They are typically tireless in their love for the lost and the saints, for families, and for the healing and deliverance for all these. Now, see all five giftings as needed and welcome on the scene now! Call the God-ordained five-fold into their places. Call them into congregations, into cities, into regions. Call them forth, in Jesus’ name. A prayer you can pray: Father, we call for the true five-fold apostles and prophets to realize who they really are and we ask that they would welcome their places in the Body of Christ. We ask that You gently and lovingly help those who have titled themselves as apostles and prophets to humble themselves and embrace their true place of anointing. We thank You, Lord, for the pastors, teachers, and evangelists. We have needed them and still need them! Strengthen them and grace them to walk in a new power and authority, together with the other five-fold gifted ones. We call them all into their places within churches, cities and regions. In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: We decree that the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers will operate together for Kingdom transformation of our nation!

Re-commissioning Stop calling the commissionings in Mark 16 and Matthew 28 the Great Commissions. They are the Great Re-commissions. Jesus is restoring things back the way God wanted them in Genesis 1:26-28. In Mark 16, it’s all about the family. It’s about Awakening. He says to go preach the Gospel and get them saved and get them healed and delivered and filled with His Spirit. Bring them back into His family. That’s awakening, revival, and new birth. In Matthew 28, He doesn’t say anything about getting people saved. He now says to go disciple the nations and to teach them what He has commanded us. That is the Ekklesia aspect of the re-commissioning. It includes the stewarding of the earth. He’s saying we will not just get them saved, but we will change the way they think, not just one at a time, but as people groups and as nations. We are moving into an era where we will not just do Mark 16, but we will also do Matthew 28. “He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.’” (Mark 16:15-17; NIV) “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” (Matthew 28:18-20a; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Declare that you are ready to fulfill both the re-commissionings of Mark 16 and Matthew 28. Intercede for the Church to walk in the Mark 16 re-commissioning. Intercede for the Church to walk in the Matthew 28 re-commissioning. A prayer you can pray: Lord, I am ready and willing to walk out and fulfill the re-commissionings of Mark 16 and Matthew 28. I intercede for the Body of Christ that we will go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation, seeing them saved and baptized in water and the Holy Spirit.  I say that we will walk in signs and wonders. We will heal the sick, raise the dead and cast out demons, among other things. I decree that all authority on earth was given to you and that you give that to me and to the Body of Christ. You give us this authority so we can disciple whole people groups and nations. Grace to the Church, as we walk this out in this new era. In Jesus’ mighty and eternal name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree that the Church will now walk in and fulfill the re-commissionings of Mark 16 and Matthew 28.

Declaring the Name of Jesus Jesus’ name should be more than a formula at the end of a prayer. It should be a realization that when we say, “In Jesus’ name!” we are speaking with the full authority of the King, who gave us His authority. It’s not a phrase. It’s not magic words. It’s a statement that we’re moving in His dominion and His authority. We’re doing this in the name of the King! “You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.” (John 14:14; NIV) “You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways.” (Job 22:28; NASB) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Have you been asking with wavering faith, hoping that using the name of Jesus will get your request granted? It’s okay. You can repent. Intercede for the Body of Christ to fully know the authority we have to use the name of Jesus when we pray. Know that He is ready to answer your faith-filled requests at the sound of His name—Jesus! Make a series of faith-statements or requests of Him right now using the beautiful name of Jesus. A prayer you can pray: Lord, forgive me for hoping You are hearing my prayers when I pray in the name of Jesus. Those are not magic words. Your name is that name above every name that You say I can rely on when I ask for anything. I can be assured that You are hearing me and You will act in accordance with Your Word and plan. Forgive any doubt and unbelief I have been walking in. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, what a beautiful name! Mantle me with faith as I make declarations and decrees as You lead me to now. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree that using the name of Jesus will assure our Kingdom victories!

Becoming “The Church” You are going to hear the word “Ekklesia” a lot over the next few years. It will be one of the predominant words, if not subjects, because the Church is finally going to become “the Church.” At least, a remnant of the Church will become the Church. Most of the Church right now is not the Church. We’ve defined “the Church” as the building on the corner or the 501(c)(3) we’ve organized, or the service we’re doing, or the organization we lead, or where we go on Sunday mornings. Jesus said that when he re-established Family, we would be His “Ekklesia”. Most of us now know this is a governing body. He was not talking about a congregation. He was talking about a governmental expression of His Kingdom of God on earth. He was saying He would have a governing people on earth that the government of hell would not prevail against. “‘And I say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades (death) will not overpower it [by preventing the resurrection of the Christ]. I will give you the keys (authority) of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] on earth will have [already] been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose [permit, declare lawful] on earth will have [already] been loosed in heaven.’” (Matthew 16:18-19; AMP) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: If you do not yet have a revelation of yourself as a part of the Ekklesia (governing body) of God in the earth, ask God for that now. His Will is His Word. Begin a Bible study program today. You can find many versions of the Bible here. You can find many options to study it here, as well. Use the Word as the sword of the Spirit it is meant to be. Declare it and decree it over situations that are out of alignment with God’s Will in the earth. Find a scripture to pray over your lost son or daughter or neighbor or friend. Decree it daily, believing that a miracle salvation moment is coming. Be ready to be the answer to your intercession. Find a Bible verse to decree over the nation. Decree it daily and watch how God aligns you with like-hearted Believers to see His Kingdom come in that area. A prayer you can pray: Father, show me how I am a part of the Ekklesia, the governing Body of Christ in the earth. We are to use Your Kingdom keys to bind the enemy’s works of darkness in the earth, as well as to loose the captives from the enemy’s clutches. We will also loose Your Kingdom strategies in the earth. Make me hungry for Your Word! Lead me to new ways to study Your Word. Show me new things in versions I don’t normally read it in. Show me how to drill down in the Greek and Hebrew to capture the meaning as You had it written. Give me verses to decree over my loved ones and over the nation. In Jesus name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree that the Church will now operate as “the Church”!

Spiritual Reproduction The mandate God gave mankind to multiply and take dominion of the earth was disrupted at the Fall. But, Jesus came to restore, reform, and re-birth that mandate. He said it in Matthew 16, “I’m going to build My Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.” “Build” is the word “oikos”, which doesn’t mean “build a building.” It means “build a family.” So, now, Jesus is saying He is giving us the ability in Him to go get more family members by getting them born again. He gave us the ability to go find them, share Jesus with them, lay hands on them, breathe on them, disciple them, and deliver them. So when the lost are born again, in His image again, in His likeness again, filled with His nature, they will have the ability to reproduce again! “‘And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.’” (Matthew 16:18; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Declare, “I am a born again Believer in Jesus Christ. I am a Kingdom reproducer! I can introduce the lost to Jesus, facilitate their filling with the Holy Spirit, deliver them from the enemy’s oppression, disciple them, and teach them how to reproduce, as well.” Declare, “Satan cannot stop the reproduction of God’s family according to Matthew 16:18.” Ask God to help you overcome any hesitation to share Christ with others. Ask God to remove all fear, doubt and unbelief, insecurity and shame in you that would hinder you from walking in Kingdom reproduction. Go and share Jesus with someone today; heal the sick, cast out a demon, or disciple someone in the Word. A prayer you can pray: I declare that I am a born again Believer in Jesus Christ. I am a Kingdom reproducer! I can introduce the lost to Jesus, facilitate their filling with the Holy Spirit, deliver them from the enemy’s oppression, disciple them, and teach them how to reproduce as well. Satan cannot stop the reproduction of God’s family according to Matthew 16:18. Holy Spirit, heal and deliver me from all fear, doubt and unbelief, insecurity and shame that keeps me from walking in Kingdom reproduction. Jesus, let’s go find someone that I can talk to about You today. Let’s get someone saved, healed and delivered. Let me start them on a road to discipleship by reading the Word together. I am excited to see America changed as the Believers are activated to get Your family back. Amen. Today’s decree: The Church is being reactivated to get God’s family back and the gates of hell cannot overcome us!

The Dominion Mandate God called mankind to function in a role of Kingdom rule on the planet. (See Genesis 1:26-28.) Most people haven’t believed we could ever get back to that. However, we are moving back to that. We are able to step more fully into the stewarding role on the earth now—so  much so that we are going to heal nations. We are going to transform nations. We are going to eliminate poverty in regions of the earth that respond to our message, for example. We aren’t going to rule by force. We are going to rule by the Spirit, which is going to change hearts, which will change minds. Then, Kingdom principles will be implemented, which will cause things to change in nations and regions of the earth. “Then God said, ‘Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.’ God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.’” (Genesis 1:26,28; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Imagine what the cities of Chicago, Detroit, and Los Angeles could look like if Believers there would rise up and take dominion over the spiritual forces holding them in darkness. What would your own city look like? What would your state look like? What would it take for this nation to be transformed? We need Spirit-filled Believers, harvest, discipleship, intercessors, and godly governing leaders. Call them forth and determine to be one of them. A prayer you can pray: Lord, teach me to be a Kingdom-transformer. As I think about the huge challenges that some of our nation’s largest cities face, show me how it is possible in You to effect change there. Show me how we take dominion over systemic poverty, violence, corruption, etc. Link me with like-minded Believers in my city or state or even across the nation, so that we can see Your Kingdom come here. I declare that the Word will not return void from Your lips, Father. Kingdom of God, come in my realm of authority! Amen. Today’s decree: Kingdom-advancers will implement the answers to our nation’s societal issues!
