Jesus heals in many realms of our lives. He brings healing to the spiritual realm and the physical realm, but there can also be healing in terms of the financial, relational and emotional areas of our lives. We in no way want to limit the healing of Jesus.

A simple yet profound guide to facilitate the instinctively human desire to pray. We pray because we are human, not because we are religious. Something in our nature points beyond itself; something in us searches for and desires personal connection with God. Although communicating with our Creator through prayer is innate, the effective practice of it often feels just beyond our reach.

Learning to be more productive may begin then, as in all things, with following him.

Men are under intense pressure these days. Could this be a good thing? Could it be God’s invitation to transformation?
