It Rings True During My Times of Doubt

"Like all true believers, I am truly skeptical of all that I have said."

- Over the Rhine, The World Can Wait

"As an act of love, prayer is a courageous act. It is a risk we take. It is a life-and-death risk, believing in the promises of the gospel, that God's love is indeed operative in the world. In prayer we have the courage, perhaps even the presumption and the arrogance or the audacity to claim that God's love can be operative in the very specific situations of human need that we encounter."

- John E. Biersdorf, excerpt from Healing of Purpose

Have I ever told you that I've seen Over the Rhine nearly ten times? Question: how many times have YOU seen them?

Let's go to Cornerstone....
