By Tara Gracyk
No matter your political
or spiritual beliefs, there is
one thing most everyone
in the world can agree on,
and that is the year 2020 has
been a year like no other, a
year full of chaos and craziness,
the likes of which have
not been seen before.
From a world-wide pandemic,
to an economic fall,
to a lockdown like the world
has not experienced in its
history, to a social unrest
that rivals the worst the
world has seen in years past,
the world as we knew it
even a year ago has changed
drastically.
Families have suffered
financially in ways they
never dreamt they would.
The school system has had
to adjust to ever-changing
health recommendations
and plan for a school year
like no other. Parents have
been forced to take on roles
they had not planned to.
Companies and businesses
all over the country were
required to shut down, and

Max Lee Ruble, 80
of West Lafayette, went
some closed altogether.
Churches also closed their
doors, and some still have
not reopened.
Workers in every field
experienced either job loss
or had to learn how to work
from home. Some workers
had to continue to work,
knowing their health was
at risk by doing so. People
were asked to stay home.
Some were quarantined,
and some were (and are)
afraid to leave their homes.
And people have died without
loved ones beside them
because not even family
members were allowed in
the rooms or the facilities.
People have experienced
a whirlwind of emotions
over the course of several
months: fear, anxiety, anger,
frustration, irritation and
depression, just to name a
few. Individuals have asked
the questions: What is going
on? Is this the end of the
world? Is God judging us?
When will things get back
to normal? Will they get
back to normal?
Many have felt powerless.
Some have wondered,
“Is there anything I can do
about what is going on? Is
there anything I can do to
help the world get back to
the world we once knew?”
People have been searching
for hope, security and
peace. And in a time of so
much uncertainty, in a time
with so much social unrest,
it is crucial for individuals
to find and have a sense of
hope. It is vital communities
gather together, join
together in unity and in harmony,
setting aside their
differences and combining
their efforts for the greater
good of one another, their
community and the future
of America and the world.

back on their feet, we must
first get down on our knees.”
And on Saturday, Sept. 26,
there will be an opportunity
to do just that as all across
the globe groups will meet
to join together in prayer.
A national group of leaders
said America is experiencing
a critical time in
which it has been warned
and that by the mercy of
God it has been granted a
time of reprieve in which
the American people can
turn and repent and ask
God to spare the land from
destruction. The group,
which is led by Jonathan
Cahn and Kevin Jessip and
others, has started a national
and global movement called
The Return.
In their article, “What
Will Move America from
Rebellion to Redemption?,”
Cahn and Jessip write that
their hope and prayer is The
Return will take “human
beings everywhere from
rebellion to redemption.”
Cahn also stated in an article
about his book, “The
Harbinger II: The Return,”
“Without repentance there
can be no revival. And
without revival America
has no hope.”
In his video announcement
for The Return, Cahn
quotes the scripture, II
Chronicles 7:14, “Then if
my people who are called
by my name will humble
