Passing the Mantle

Sometimes it seems like one step forward, two steps back… Sometimes the world seems dark, and the elites, the troublemakers have their way but somehow though, hope rises up and a counter-cultural champion comes along the way. Finally, someone saying, doing, pressing for, pushing for the right things and enough people with common sense champion him! Maybe the movement they’re making will spread! Maybe the hope he’s bringing will catch on, and will fight back. But before he's entirely and totally successful, he's taken away! What to do in those moments? And is the world lost without such a champion to grace their lands?
