A colleague sent me a link to a website that has been set up to encourage people to pray for newspapers and journalists.
Here's the link.
The web site points out that this is a turbulent and troubling time for the newspaper industry, and asks people to pray for all those who are affected by the cutbacks, layoffs, and other changes.
Times definitely are difficult economically for journalists and newspapers, and although I believe the news business will always be here, the format and medium may shift significantly in the coming years.
Anyone who takes the time to organize a site where people are praying for newspapers and for journalists, is A-OK in my book.
Prayer can change things, and it can help you through the changes.
