    Jesus didn't just come back for "doubting Thomas" - first he came back for the other "doubting ten" when they did not believe Mary Magadalene. Jesus, the non anxious presence, doesn't leave anyone behind.

    Prayer Keys - Sincerity Series

    Contributed by Mark Stepherson on Dec 15, 2011
     | 10,362 views

    Prayer keys are not ways of manipulating God. Rather, they are like a boat hook. If I am in a row boat and cast a hook to shore, does pulling move the shore to me or does it move me to the shore? Prayer keys do not pull God to our will. They pull us to Go

    “These people come near to me with their mouth & honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men.” Isaiah 29:13 Before saying anything else to introduce sincerity as a prayer key, I want to repeat something about ...read more
