Very cool example of answered prayer

Post by cslewislover »

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.

:clap: Bravo! The power of prayer is truly amazing! It is very inspiring to see when God moves!

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

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!

Very cool, indeed. When you read the schools doctrinal statement and history, there is little doubt as to why God would so bless a school.
