The Radical Prayer

In an age of confusion and deception people desperately need to hear the truth about Jesus. The Radical Prayer challenges us to move beyond the status quo and to join the Lord of the harvest in His work. I recommend this book to every Christian who is serious about making a difference in the world.
—Josh McDowell,
Christian Apologist and Author




                                                                                                                                     
        

Prayer can change things.  Radical prayer can change things radically. Reading The Radical Prayer could radically change your life and produce radical joy.  I heartily commend this book to every fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ.

—Alvin VanderGriend
author of
Love to Pray
 and The Joy of Prayer

I was on my way home late one afternoon when out of the corner of my eye I saw a man ride past me on his motorcycle. My husband and I are members of the Christian Motorcycle Association (CMA), so I took more than a...

Integrity

He confidently made the oath and the waiting crowd was amazed by the unexpected outcome! A Chinese man named Xu, who swore he didn't owe money that he had borrowed from a neighbor, was hit by lightning 60 seconds later.

The news on Wall Street these days is not very encouraging. I doubt financial investors are sleeping well, and neither are many average citizens. Uncertainty and confusion are common companions.

"In Tables of Stone" Series Airing Now

Tuesday, September 9, 2008
In an election year, words like "truth" are often thrown around without much regard. But what is truth? Many years ago, God wrote His truth in tables of stone. Man has tried to put pen to paper to draft his own truth, but that has often deteriorated as fast as the parchment it was written on. But God's law still stands today. He gave us a code of good moral conduct because He knows what's best for us.
