Standing at a Bible camp in North Dakota, Karoline Lewis reflects on All Saints Sunday and what it means to be saints in the world. Surrounded by a “cloud of witnesses” – those who came before us, those around us, and those yet to come – we’re reminded that we’re all called to proclaim the gospel. As the camp wall declares: “With God, all things are possible.” A powerful message about our shared calling to preach hope and possibility.
