Neil Diamond remakes ‘Sweet Caroline’ for coronavirus pandemic: Finding new ways to be the church Mar 23, 2020

Show notes

Neil Diamond recorded “Sweet Caroline” in 1969. The song sold more than one million singles and has been digitally downloaded more than two million times. It was selected by the Library of Congress in 2019 for preservation in the National Recording Registry.

However, the song has never been as appropriate or encouraging as it is today. Diamond rerecorded the song from his home and released it on Twitter, changing the lyrics to say, “Hands . . . washing hands . . . reaching out . . . don’t touch me, I won’t touch you!”

As I have written often in recent weeks, the coronavirus pandemic is a crisis unprecedented in my lifetime. It therefore represents an unprecedented opportunity for God’s people to advance his kingdom in our broken world.

Let’s consider some ways our secular culture is serving others that Christians could adapt in these critical days.

NOTE: Dr. Denison will publish a special edition Daily Article podcast episode each weekday afternoon as we look at a breaking news story in the context of biblical encouragements to “fear not.” In these days, it is vital that we fight fear with faith. The Denison Forum prays these Special Editions will be a source of biblical hope for you.

They went rafting for 25 days and came back to coronavirus: How to face the future in faith Mar 20, 2020

Show notes

On February 19, Zach Edler and more than a dozen other people set out on a twenty-five-day adventure: rafting the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon.

When they left, Bernie Sanders had a double-digit lead heading into that night’s Democratic debate in Las Vegas. Cases of coronavirus were showing signs of decline in mainland China.

On March 14, when they pulled their rafts out of the river, a man who worked for a rafting company asked them, “Have you been in contact with the outside world?”

They had not.

Except for a few one-way text messages sent to their families on a satellite phone, they had not heard anything in more than three weeks. No cell service or news. Not even a passing word from fellow travelers.

Then the man told them what they didn’t know.

Americans are not doing what we need to do: Why we must practice ‘physical distancing’ now Mar 19, 2020

Show notes

SPECIAL EDITION DAILY ARTICLE FOR MARCH 19, 2020

Americans are not changing our behavior as we absolutely must to defeat this enemy.

A new Harris Poll survey reports that 89 percent of Americans are still going to coffee shops. Half of respondents have not altered their hygiene behavior with house guests (e.g., asking friends and family to wash their hands immediately upon entering); 58 percent have not changed how often they are inviting people over.

And since more than half of all Americans have at least one of the symptoms that puts them at risk, to put the situation bluntly: we can literally be infecting people who will die as a result.

How can we get more of us to do what everyone must do?
