Do you remember that game we used to play when we were younger with our friends – “close your eyes and fall back I'll catch you?” We used to laugh, screaming “No I can't you are going to let me fall!” The response we always...

When I was in high school, I printed out a bunch of quotes about prayer and stuck them on the inside of my cupboard door. Quotes like:   “Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.” Oswald Chambers   “If I fail to...
