Dave calls us to finish Lent strong through prayer, especially at abortion clinics, and to respond wisely to evil. Rather than fixating on shocking cases, we should focus on everyday evils like abortion, pornography, and broken families, responding with faith. The true battle is won through ordinary holiness, evangelization, family love, daily faith, and trust in Christ, guided by Mary.
