Abraham, spoken of in Scripture as a ‘friend of God’ (see 2 Chronicles 20:7; Is. 41:8; James 2:23), was a powerful intercessor and the first one mentioned in the Bible. He wasn’t God’s friend because he was an intercessor; he was an intercessor because he was God’s friend. The [...]

Day 11 – No Toleration!!
“I suspect I’ve got more in common with Jezebel and Ahab than with Elijah. I’m working to build a tolerant, pluralistic society that respects other faith traditions.
