Leonard Ravenhill said this in his book “Why Revival Tarries”
“No man is greater than his prayer life…Poverty–stricken as the church is today in many things, she is most stricken here, in the place of PRAYER.
We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players and payers, few PRAYERS.

Does that bring up any memories about your Father? You may see a clip like that and remember an intrusive, blunt, inconsiderate man. Or maybe worse: abusive or neglectful. The fact is, for many people the word
