Suggested: 10 minutes

For those with at least one name on your “disappeared” list:

• Pick the name that stirs feelings within you that come closest to “love.”
• Spend 5 minutes praying for this person.

Ask yourself, “How motivated are you to grow a relationship with someone who is different than you politically?”

Then spend 5 minutes praying based on the following:

• If your rank is below 5, ask God if He is now wanting you to change your motivational level.
• If your rank is above 5, ask God for creative ideas on how you might get started. Ask God specifically about Russell’s advice to start by finding a common goal that could be the context for this new relationship (i.e. volunteering together on a community project).

Suggested: 5 minutes
