The challenges of the modern world make devoting our whole selves to following the Lord and His servants increasingly difficult. Too often we fail to examine the forces influencing...

But it is in its prayers and treatments that the Bible is transcendent. Among all the beautiful and heart-searching prayers, there is none that surpasses the wonderful and inspiring 46th Psalm.

The second book of Kings depicts Israel as a land divided, being ruled by wicked kings who lead the Israelite people only further into idolatry and sin. Throughout this period, the prophets, notably Elijah and Elisha, bring hope for repentance and reformation by performing astounding miracles and spreading the word of God.
