…time to pray?…

When is it time to pray? Anytime, all the time…pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17) How do we do that? What does it look like?   I believe our ability to pray without ceasing comes from our view of God. Maybe it would be more accurate to say - how surrendered we are to God, …

…the other part…

In my last post…I mentioned we'd cover something in a later post…well, this is that later post. First, to revisit the paragraph… However, we seem to hit a bump in the road when we start to define neighbor. We typically put the neighbor tag on people "like us"…other Christians.
