This is a continuation from "Faith, Praise and Prayer - Part 1" where we, among other things, took a brief look at the source of faith in Hebrews 12.

Romans 10:
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

I am undertaking a study of Prayer, specifically as it relates to Faith and Praise.

6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he di… Continue

The other night I peeked in on a brother who was exchanging tweets with an atheist...actually, several at one time. He seemed to be under frontal attack.

I don't know how it all shook down that night, but during the part I came in on there was more heat than light being generated on the… Continue
