The History of Christianity in 25 Objects: Billy Graham's Prayer Wheel | Challies Dot Com

The History of Christianity in 25 Objects: Billy Graham's Prayer Wheel | Challies Dot Com: "e Billy Graham Library in Charlotte, North Carolina, is meant to be an ongoing crusade that will continue for many generations. Situated on the same property as the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, the library opened in 2007 and is neither a museum nor a memorial. Rather, it is an extension of the evangelistic ministry that Graham carried out for so many years. "

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Ten Cannons.: "Those of you who have read the book “Out of the Comfort Zone” will know that back in 1982 I discovered what is now called “Hell’s Best Kept Secret,” and how I had a strong conviction that God was going to move myself and my family from New Zealand to the United States."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Coconut Man.

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Coconut Man.: "Quick question Ray, Whenever I'm having a bad day, I pull up your famous banana video. It makes me giggle like a little school girl. My question is, if the banana is the divine design of God, made just to fit in the hands of humans, what was He thinking when He designed the coconut?

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Science & Camels.

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Science & Camels.: "t says that camels were domesticated somewhere between 2000 and 1500 BC. They believe that they weren’t domesticated in Israel until centuries later, more like 900 BC. But they are wrong. Camels were domesticated 1,000 years earlier. We know this because we have a historically reliable record: “And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel.” Genesis 24:64 doesn’t say she “lit up” a camel—she lighted off a camel, which means she was riding the domesticated beast. Still, many in the world will prefer to believe scientists over the Bible, and it doing so they strain at a gnat and…well you know the rest."
