What hath God wrought? These are posts describing what God has done and is doing in our family in the way of ministry to others.

Texas Ho!

“It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer.” – Matthew 21:13 I am so grateful to work at a ministry where prayer is integrated into our everyday work lives. Who would imagine allowing their employees to pray during work hours? Yet hasn’t it been said that prayer is the greater work?
