When I first read the story about the Golden Calf in Exodus 32, it was very easy for me to judge both Aaron and the people. I could not believe that anyone would be that stupid. I was a very immature Christian at that time. Since then I have realized that there is a powerful story there for both you and me. So, I share this with you.

Your relationship with God outweighs your religion.
Grandma’s vision
I was not there to witness this event. A few weeks later, as I was home for my grandmother’s funeral, my mother shared this with me. She was awed by the event, and by the telling of it as well. Careful, you may find yourself awed as you read it!

What if God’s #1 angel wrote a book about the Creation in the style of “The Book of Acts”? How do things look from His point of view? I was inspired to write this after reading C. S.

I have had the honor of using them to help others, and watching healing take place is a tremendous honor. Some think it’s a cult because they have not talked to a Christian who is involved in it. Almost all the Christian criticism of the program was done by people not involved in helping others heal. Those that stay outside can only hear gossip and rumors. If you want to know more, watch these posts!

Let’s have a little fun. We certainly know how to interrupt another person while they are talking. Well, at least I am much too experienced at that! What if God interrupted us when we prayed to Him? If praying is like having a conversation, what we have below could be one such experience!
