For every significant task, there is the "sit-down" approach and the "rise-up" approach. We need both to sit down and pray and then to rise up and do, but even then by involving the resources of others. Lone wolves are not appropriate.

When there is a big task to be done, I am saying, there are two entirely different ways to approach it. There is the rise up approach and ...read more
