Praying the Prayers of the Bible
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
Let us make Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 1:19-23 our own, asking God to do for us all that Paul saw fit to pray. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated…

Tune My Heart to Sing Thy Grace
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
“O Lord, do good to those who are good, whose hearts are in tune with you.” Psalm 125:4 Imagine an orchestra where just one instrument is off-key. That dissonance alone would ruin the symphony. Dissonance hurts the ears. Like nails on a chalkboard it is repelling, causing us to squirm, cover our ears, and run for…
Praying the Prayers of the Bible
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
Solomon was the wisest of kings. After he put the finishing touches on the temple he built for God, he prayed this prayer of blessing, an exquisite final “finishing touch.” This is one we can pray over ourselves, our families, and our churches.

Is There Life After Election Day?
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the Lord to care for them. Psalm 112:7 Tomorrow the United States votes for its 45th President. This has been one of the most harrowing, dramatic, comical, and tragic of elections with more steep twists and turns than Lombard Street. We long for it to be behind…
The Aborted Vote
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
Important Disclaimer: We are not in the least against women who have had abortions. In fact, we love them dearly, as some of them are among our dearest friends and family.

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. John 14:16,17 Many are confused about how to vote in the 2016 Presidential Election. Jesus has given us the solution: let the Holy Spirit lead you into…
Resurrecting the Hopeless
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
“Everything is possible for one who believes.” Mark 9:23 “Didn’t I tell you that you would see God’s glory if you believe?” So they rolled the stone aside… Then Jesus shouted, “Lazarus, come out!” And the dead man came out, his hands and feet bound in grave clothes, his face wrapped in a head cloth.…
A Prayer for a Godly Platform
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
“Repeat these basic essentials over and over to God’s people. Warn them before God against pious nitpicking, which chips away at the faith. It just wears everyone out. Concentrate on doing your best for God, work you won’t be ashamed of, laying out the truth plain and simple.” (2 Timothy 2:15) Are we not worn…
A Prayer to Avoid Attack
By
Mark and Jill Herringshaw
“I will catch up with him while he is weary and discouraged. He and his troops will panic…” 2 Samuel 17:2 David’s enemies were confident that they would be able to conquer him while catching him when he was both physically exhausted and emotionally spent. The circumstances were sad and extremely grim. This wasn’t the…
