We're celebrating 25 years since the fall of the iron curtain and the wall between East and West Germany. I'm reminded of all the faith movements that led up to that moment and the overwhelming sense that the whole thing was a God-thing.
In our prosperity one may forget God, but he was the strength for millions in times of oppression. Thank God their gentle faith uprooted tyranny and brought about a perfect and bloodless revolution.
God is good.
Lithuania's Hill of Crosses
Pope John Paul II's "Fear Not" speech in Poland (1979)
Prayer for Peace in Leipzig, East Germany (Oct. 9, 1989)
Pan European Picnic (August 9, 1989)
Prague's Velvet Revolution (Nov. 19, 1989)
