I saw a video at church, from Biola University, about how they wanted to build a new theological building but didn't have the funds. They decided to do a campus-wide fast for a month. By the end of the month, they received over $6.4 million. Truly amazing! Here's a write-up about it.

Bravo! The power of prayer is truly amazing! It is very inspiring to see when God moves!
Once I was trapped in a perpetual night, without even a star to light the sky. Now I stand in the glory of the Son, and not even a faint shadow of darkness remains.

Sweet! Franklin graham calls this "GOD room" in one of his books. I think its "rebel with a cause"

Just testing. So, is the board down for regular members and not mods, or what? If any regular member see this, try to post and we'll see!

Re: Very cool example of answered prayer
