Comfort and Keep Us

In the very air of Texas and across the channels of social media, grief abounds over the loss of life at Camp Mystic and the surrounding areas. It's a tragedy that feels unspeakable in its horror. The desire to make sense of it goes unfulfilled, leaving only lament.

There's a song the girls at Camp Mystic sing, writes Kate Shellnut at CT. It's called "Morning Prayer / Camp on the Guadalupe."

“Father in heaven, bless us we pray,"say the lyrics. "Strengthen and guide us all through the day. Comfort and keep us, Lord, in thy will. Here at Camp Mystic, be with us still.”

As we pray for families who will never be the same and look around at a world that is ever-touched by suffering, may we ask God to help us trust that he is still the one who comforts and keeps us in his will. In all circumstances, may he give us the faith to believe that he is with us still.

As developments in artificial intelligence change daily, we’re increasingly asking what makes humanity different from the machines we use. In this issue, Emily Belz introduces us to tech workers on the frontlines of AI development, Harvest Prude explains how algorithms affect Christian courtship, and Miroslav Volf writes on the transhumanist question. Several writers call our attention to the gifts of being human: Haejin and Makoto Fujimura point us to beauty and justice, Kelly Kapic reminds us God’s highest purpose isn’t efficiency, and Jen Pollock Michel writes on the effects of Alzheimer’s . We bring together futurists, theologians, artists, practitioners, and professors to consider how technology shapes us even as we use it.
