An eventful 2020 has been a year for Christians to live out compassion, get creative, and think hard. We are grateful that so many of you have engaged with our website to help navigate a perplexing year.

This year, we at Renew.org have wrestled with how we can live out a faithful and effective faith in a bizarre year which God alone saw coming. The following are some of the results of this wrestling. Of the hundreds of articles Renew.org published in the year 2020, the following were the most read.
