Dispatch from a sinner: Adapting your faith during the coronavirus pandemic

In my earliest days confined to my home during the coronavirus outbreak, my uneasiness only escalated during endless searches for coronavirus news updates. Like my fellow Christians, social distancing and necessary regionwide church closures meant I could not quiet my internal tumult by sitting in a familiar church pew and listening to wise religious counsel.

Comfort arrived when I took it upon myself to delve more deeply into the familiar lessons of my Christian faith. Focusing on Biblical and spiritual texts has left me invigorated by the belief that practicing and nonpracticing Christians alike can help one another draw closer to our maker as we navigate the unknown.
