  Why God Delays in Answering? and...

  Why does God delay in answering? 
  Why do I pray, weep, fast—and still, silence? 
  In this soul-piercing sermon by Pope Shenouda III, known for his divine wisdom and spirit-led counsel, we explore one of the hardest and holiest questions: 
  Why does God seem far away in times of pain? 
  “Why, O Lord, do You stand far off? Why do You hide Yourself in times of trouble?” (Psalm 10:1) And many of us today echo this cry. 
  But maybe God’s silence isn’t absence. Maybe it’s preparation. Maybe it’s grace. 
  Through powerful biblical stories—from Abraham to Joseph, Hannah to Elijah, from the Psalms to Isaiah and the New Testament—we uncover the deep truth: 
  God may delay, but He never forgets. 
  He works in silence. He prepares in stillness. 
  His “delay” is often His way of strengthening our soul, deepening our trust, cleansing our heart, and shaping us for a greater purpose. 
  “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him.” (Psalm 37:7) “Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.” (Isaiah 40:31) 
  This message is for every soul that has whispered, 
  “Lord, I’ve waited so long. Where are You?” 
  “Faith is not believing that God will work… it is knowing that He is already working.” (John 5:17) “I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten.” (Joel 2:25) 
  📖 Let this message bring peace to the restless, calm to the weary, and hope to the discouraged.

  A funny, suspenseful mystery and unlikely friendship story from New York Times bestselling author Gordon Korman—perfect for fans of Swindle and Ungifted. 
  Keenan has lived all over the world but nowhere quite as strange as Centerlight Island, which is split between the United States and Canada. The only thing weirder than Centerlight itself is his neighbor Zarabeth, aka ZeeBee. 
  ZeeBee is obsessed with the island’s history as a Prohibition-era smuggling route. She’s also convinced that her beloved dog, Barney, was murdered—something Keenan finds pretty hard to believe. 
  Just about everyone on Centerlight is a suspect, because everyone hated Barney, a huge dog—part mastiff, part rottweiler—notorious for terrorizing the community. Accompanied by a mild-mannered new dog who is practically Barney’s opposite, ZeeBee enlists Keenan’s help to solve the mystery. 
  As Keenan and ZeeBee start to unravel the clues, they uncover a shocking conspiracy that dates back to Centerlight’s gangster past. The good news is that Keenan may have found the best friend he’s ever had. The bad news is that the stakes are sky-high. 
  And now someone is after them. . . .

  The Progressive Presidents

  Editors Charles River

  When William McKinley was assassinated in 1901, young Theodore Roosevelt was thrust into the presidency, one that would earn him a place on Mount Rushmore, Roosevelt’s “Square Deal” domestic policies favored average citizens while busting trusts and monopolies. Roosevelt also promoted conservation as an environmental stance, while his “speak softly and carry a big stick” foreign policy is still an oft used phrase today. Roosevelt even earned a Nobel Prize during his presidency.   
  As one of the most influential men of the 20th century, there is no shortage of adjectives to use when describing Woodrow Wilson’s two terms as president of the United States. Wilson was a pioneer of the Progressive movement both before and during his presidency, becoming a populist champion a generation before Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal. He ran for reelection by touting his neutrality during World War I, only to lead his nation into the war and become the architect of a world body that would lead to greater inter-connection among nations. Today Wilson is best remembered for his Fourteen Points, one of the most forceful arguments for an idealistic foreign policy in American history. 
  Franklin Delano Roosevelt might be America’s greatest 20th century president, but there’s no question that he was the most unique. A well-connected relative of Theodore Roosevelt, FDR was groomed for greatness until he was struck down by what was widely believed to be polio at the time. Nevertheless, he persevered, rising through New York politics to reach the White House just as the country faced its greatest challenge since the Civil War. For over a decade, Roosevelt threw everything he had at the Great Depression, and then threw everything the country had at the Axis powers during World War II. Ultimately, he succumbed to illness in the middle of his fourth term, just before the Allies won the war.
