Soul of the Citizen: Prayers For A Divided Nation
by Mischa Field
Genre: Christian Nonfiction 

Picture
Crisis times call for leadership.
Corrupt times call for integrity.
These times call for a move of God, and a move of God calls for you.

Soul of the Citizen: Prayers for a Divided Nation, by Mischa Field, is the cry of a burdened heart refusing to give up on neighbor or neighborhood or nation. It is a collection of prayers for leaders and followers, for parents and children, for shepherds and flocks, and for you and your enemy.

A biblical scribe for modern times, Field offers the reader a word of hope and a call to action. This book is for anyone looking to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God in a time drowning in accusation and ambiguity.

If you long to protect your peace in times of conflict, this book is for you.
If you long to live ethically and authentically in times of struggle, this book is for you.
If you are moved to pray that God would do a new thing in the life of this nation, this book is for you.

​Introduction: A Call to Prayer

The prayers in this book come as a response to a year like no other.
We have experienced a global pandemic that, as of November 2, 2021, has taken over 5 million lives, more than 767,000 in this nation alone. We have 4 percent of the world’s population, but 19 percent of its coronavirus cases, and 15 percent of its deaths. Conditions are improving in some places but surging in others, and each round of relaxed standards leads to predictable spikes. The disease continues to take a staggering toll.1 And things may get worse before they get better.
We have seen a cry for justice triggered by the police killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, among others. And things may get worse before they get better.
We have endured a bitterly contentious election season. And now we find ourselves embroiled in a unique moment in American history. On January 6, 2021, as Congress convened to certify the results of the 2020 election, hundreds rioted in the nation’s capital. They broke windows, damaged property, occupied the House and Senate chambers and congressional offices, and erected a noose, chanting for the assassination of, among others, Vice President Mike Pence. Some used flagpoles as weapons and beat police officers. Others, armed with flex cuffs, appeared to have been prepared to take hostages.2 Court filings suggest people “came prepared with weapons, gas masks, ballistic vests, and zip ties.” 3 More than six hundred people have been charged with crimes, with at least sixty pleading guilty.4 The riot resulted in five deaths and the injury of over 140 Capitol Police, and an unknown number of rioters.5
The details of that day continue to emerge. Congressional hearings have begun, and more will come. Clearly, however, we have reached a new boiling point in this simmering crisis of the past thirteen, sixty, 160, and 400 years. We are the United States, but a divided people. And as we shout across dividing lines, we indict the darkness in our hearts.
We critique corrupt politicians and a divisive media, and perhaps we should. We rail against broken institutions and predatory organizations, and possibly we are right. We demand consequences for those who would subvert democracy, and surely, we must. But each of these people and groups is only stirring a darkness already within us. The forces of evil seek to awaken the evil in us.
Many have spoken, over the last few years, of a fight for the soul of the nation. And that fight begins in 330 million individual hearts. It grows in 330 million purpose-filled lives, each with the capacity to serve the greater good or stir far greater harm.
The soul is the seat of the mind, the will, and the emotions.
We must fight for the soul of the citizen.
The Cornell Law Dictionary defines a citizen as “a person who, by place of birth, nationality of one or both parents, or naturalization is granted full rights and responsibilities as a member of a nation or political community.”6
We often talk in this era about citizenship: who has it, who should get the opportunity to obtain it, and the rights and responsibilities that it affords. We talk about free speech and paying taxes. We talk about obeying laws. We talk less about the heart conditions that drive our conduct, the mindsets, decisions, and feelings that move us.
We talk about free will but not goodwill. We talk about being great, but not the greater good. We talk about the danger around us, but not the danger within. As praying people, we must contend with all of it.
That is the burden God gave me, in earnest, three years ago, to pray that the cultural, political, and ultimately spiritual war that has enveloped this nation does not devour its people. The prayers in this book reflect a type of spiritual diary. They emerged from specific moments, inspired by specific events while meditating on specific Scripture, but they speak to the life of the soul. They speak through the help of the Holy Spirit. As such, their meaning for you might be different than it was for me. I invite you to explore them as you see fit, whether you pray one prayer a day or the same prayer for eighty days. I don’t know what God has for you. I do know that he has you reading these words for a reason, so I welcome you to the process of discovering it. As we pray concerning leadership, service, vision, justice, ethics, faith, and the condition of our souls, we are praying for people. One by one. Mind by mind. Heart by heart.
Please join me in this fight. Let us pray together.

What inspired you to write this book?

As I note in the introduction to the book, Soul of the Citizen constitutes a type of spiritual diary. It started out as a daily exercise of praying through the news of the day, and in the digital age, there are no slow news days. Our political, cultural, ethical, and moral crises emerge daily, because our political, cultural, ethical, and moral conflicts lie at the core of our national identity. We are United States, but divided people. We are vessels of hope in oceans of despair. We are wonderful but wounded. And we tend to allow our wounds to spill onto everyone around us. If we are praying people, we always have reason to pray.
For me prayer has always been a way of processing life: joys and concerns, hopes and fears, visions and dreams. This book was my way of grieving through the tumultuous politics of the past 7 years. The more compromised digital communication became, the more time I spent in prayer. One dubious honor I probably share with most people who communicate publicly is that I have been excoriated by critics from both sides of any given spectrum, sometimes for coherent reasons, and sometimes before they even understand what I am saying.
Jesus challenged his followers to love their enemies, to bless those that cursed them, and pray for those that despitefully used them. I’m interested in just what that looks like in a 21st Century context. Love desires to benefit others at the expense of self. Love sacrifices, gives, hopes, and perseveres. When we think about loving people, especially people we don’t know or don’t like, what does it inspire us to do? Sometimes love looks like public service. Sometimes it looks like accountability or an apology. Sometimes it looks like boundaries, a refusal to participate in someone else’s pathology. If we recognize that there is spiritual sickness in the land, that we are dealing with a nation of wounded souls, and are wounded ourselves, then we can have better conversations, and take more productive action in attempting to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.
In Matthew 19, Jesus told critics trying to stump him with a question about divorce that the only reason for divorce was hardness of heart. Reconciliation, endurance, and growth are all possible. In our hard-heartedness, however, we often choose to end things.
This nation marries diverse groups of people in a grand civic experiment. One trend we see in this moment is a clamor for civic divorce. Red states want to divorce blue states. Urban areas want to divorce rural ones. Young people want their elders to get out of the way. And people who have long held disproportionate power respond to the call to share with terrified outrage. Across every division, we see people daydreaming of a country in which their neighbors don’t exist instead of answering God’s call to love them. This, I would argue, is a jaded retreat. It is a dereliction of duty. And nothing good comes of it.
I believe we can do better. That is the heart of this book.

Hi, Bernie! Thanks for the question!

For me it has multiple answers.

The content for this book (and the two that follow) came together over the course of a year.

The process of learning how best to share it with the world took another year.

Getting to this point took 40 years.

I’m just glad I got here.

For me, these are meditations on civic healing.

We are diverse in background, perspective, culture, and so many other ways. But, as neighbors, we share a land, and a right to pursue our hopes, dreams, and happiness freely and safely.

The question for me is what ideas have we allowed to take root in our hearts concerning our neighbor, and what soul-searching, learning, and unlearning do we need to do to get them out?

That’s where the work begins.

Thank you, Jon! I appreciate your optimism!

I’m not sure I’m able to set the bar as high as getting along.

My question is, can we respect each other’s humanity when we don’t get along? Can we stop trying to convince all our friends that everyone we don’t know is a monster?

Can we embrace differences and stop demanding that everyone live the same way that we do?

Can we recognize when people are manipulating us, and stop giving them access?

If we can do that, I think we're on the right track.

But it will require work

The soul question is interesting to me.

We can talk about saving souls,
We can talk about selling our souls.
We can talk about soul-searching.

But how do we fight for our souls?

Our mind, our will, and our emotions may all be out of whack.

But they can be brought back in.

That’s the challenge.

Thank you for your kind words!

I agree, Michelle. Times are sad.

I find hope, though, in the resolve that sad times inspire.

When our comfort zones aren’t bringing us peace, we sometimes become more motivated to move outside them.

I am having conversations now with people I rarely reach, in ways I rarely connect, about things I rarely discuss.

And that’s where change begins: in two people daring to have a conversation about joys and griefs, hopes and fears, visions and dreams, and everything else that constitutes our core values.

It is often said that change is not an event. It’s a process. And on the process of connection, we disempower the forces that divide us.

I pray something in this book speaks to you.

I pray you begin to build the world you want to see.

The excerpt, to me, speaks to the quandary of this present moment.

We’re all in a war, but most of us are attacking the wrong enemy.

We have drawn battle lines, that serve primarily to imprison us.

The singer-songwriter David Wilcox has a song called “Fearless Love.”

He talks about the fearless love that makes you cross the border.

In interested in how we can love across enemy lines.

If we can do that, we can not just win fights, we can end them.

I think moments like these call us to dig deeper and come up higher.

How do we live in our homes, our neighborhoods, and these digital spaces in ways that promote the greater good?

I do think it's possible,
I also think its worth it.

But it requires that we take responsibility for our corner of the world, and not grow weary in well-doing.

We all want peace.
We all want to be able to look ourselves in the mirror, and look the people who lrust us in the eye, knowing that we are trying to do the right thing, even though we will all make mistakes
And many of us are ready for something new.

That's what I'm praying for..

I am trying to be intentional in my reading in 2022.

I think a lot of us have gotten digitally overwhelmed over the past few years.

The volume of information available to us is essentially limitless.

We’ve tried to keep up.
We’ve struggled to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
And at a certain point, a lot of us have tuned out.

I pray that his book offers people a focal point, and some thoughts worth considering.

I pray that we would start a new work in 2022

Thank you, Cynthia!

When we talk about responsibilities, we usually don't struggle to see how our neighbor is misguided, or our enemy is wrong. We tend to have more trouble taking an honest look at ourselves. We judge others by their actions, but ourselves by our intentions, so unless we are wrestling with acute guilt, we see other people as the problem.

I'm interested in taking a look within.

I think the problem, and the solution, starts with us.

It's not that other people don't have issues. But they are harder to change. Us, we can work on. And I would argue that we must.

So I wrote this book to focus on my side of the wall, whether my side needs healing, or correction, or hope, or help.

I'm writing for other people willing to do the same, and I continue to marvel at the people who are responding.

I think we never know who will be moved by our writing. All we can do is write.

Thanks for your support!

And I hope that you choose to be a bridge builder wherever you are.

I’m interested in starting conversations across dividing lines.

We may not share the same faith, but we probably share the same hope for both inner and outer peace

We may not share the same cultural lens, but most of us respond to the call for fairness and honesty.

We may not all agree on the right thing to do next, but many of us are clear we aren’t doing the right thing now.

We share the desire to live with integrity
We respond to the call to practice kindness.

There are so many bridges we can build.
And so many opportunities to start.

If I can start genuine conversations, I’ve accomplished something.

If I can encourage someone to pray, I’ve done something.

If I can actually hear someone’s story, instead of just tuning them ont and going on autopilot, I’ve done something.

For me, one of the central questions of the book is, as a nation, and as individuals, who are we, and who do we want to be?

Both require that we articulate our core values.

Both require honest self-assessment to determine how we match up to them.

We can say the conflicts in the land are the fault of our enemies

But I would argue that we all need to take a look at ourselves.

Thank you, Danielle.

I’m interested in starting conversations.

I’m interested in building bridges.

I’m interested in living beyond walls and across enemy lines.

If we can do that, we’ve done something.

Thank you, Kelly!

My hope is to draw like-minded people together to accomplish something good.
But I also want to draw opposite-minded people into conversations across dividing lines.

Bridges are more powerful than walls.

This sounds like an inspiring book. It's been a tough few years and at times I do need to say a prayer or two to get me through it.

Thank you, Karin!

I’m interested in learning how we can live ethically, righteously, consistently, regardless of what our neighbor may be doing.

That’s the challenge.

Agreed!

Lots has changed, and more needs to.

The question for me is how do WE change: personally, locally, nationally, globally?

That’s at least half the battleZ

Thank you, Thomas!

This is a labor of love.

And it’s a labor that won’t finish in my lifetime.

There is more baggage to unpack than I am able to reach.

There are more wounds to heal that anything I can address.

But I can start.

And my prayer is that God works through me.

Thank you, Valerie!

I believe they will be answered.

I pray I am sensitive enough to see it, and brave enough to respond.

We miss far too many opportunities because we pray for something and don’t like the answer we get.

I just want to be in position to do some good.

Thank you, Julie!

I pray that it speaks to you!

The humbling thing about the writing process is that we never fully know who we’re writing for.

If this book is for you, I rejoice.

The prospect of a season of soul searching excites me.

If we can do it as individuals, we can do it as a nation.

I’m hoping to start some new conversations.

It’s easy to double down on what we alereafy think we know.

Learning something new is harder.
