About this listen

 In this episode, we explore the current political turbulence in Serbia. The country is experiencing significant unrest marked by mass protests, democratic backsliding, and challenges to human rights. As international observers express concern over the erosion of democratic norms, we delve into the nature of Serbia's political scene, and the country's precarious stance between the EU and Russia. As always, we look at where we might focus our intentions and prayers, and invite you to join us in holding these. Suggested Intention Focus for this week This week, as Serbia’s political situation remains finely balanced, with the government consolidating power amid mounting domestic and international challenges and mass unrest at home, we suggest holding as our main intention: We will that Serbia’s President, Prime Minister and cabinet will be guided by wise and compassionate counsel that seeks to guard against democratic backsliding. Please join us in holding this. Our guided time of prayer and intention sending starts at 10 minutes 30 seconds.
