A Sunday morning prayer is presented to help believers release burdens and refocus their hearts on God after a busy week. [^1]

Adam Hughes, a former pastor, released the poetry collection Pluck which explores the dissolution of religious certainty. [^2]

The article states that Scripture reminds Christians that worship, Sabbath rest, and meeting together with the church are important rhythms of faith. [^3]

During his time of isolation, Hughes states he was left with 'something resembling God'. [^4]

Hughes's work suggests that faith may not survive in the forms once known but that questions, fragments, and sparks will always remain. [^5]

The collection Pluck utilizes a mixture of poetry and prose to mirror the experience of losing a sense of certainty. [^6]

The prayer asks God to forgive believers for working hard to be self-sufficient and for letting fear and worry control their minds. [^7]

The text cites Genesis 2:2 to note that God rested on the seventh day after His work of creation. [^8]
