Still Praying for Prodigals
Reading a book right now by Richard A. Burr called Praying Your Prodigal Home: Unleashing God’s Power to Set Your Loved Ones Free. It’s a wonderful complement to the Praying for Your Prodigal study of Luke 15. Mr. Burr writes from first-hand experience. He shares the story of his own prodigal son and his home-coming […]
Applications from Acts: Waiting
“One of the greatest strains in life is the strain of waiting on God.” Oswald Chambers Never, ever stand behind me in a check out lane.

Praying For Your Prodigal
Almost 1,000 people have now been through the Praying for Your Prodigal study. Just think of that! Some of these are interceding for multiple prodigals and many having completed the study once are going back through for round two as they continue to beseech the Father to woo His wandering ones home. I wish you […]
