		<title>Psalms Teach Us How To Pray</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Psalms can teach us how to pray.  I started re-reading Psalms this week and was blown away by King David, the author of many of the Psalms in the Bible&#8217;s Old Testament. As an example, let&#8217;s look at Psalm 6:6-8. &#8220;I am exhausted as I grown; all night long I drench my bed in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Share Your Christian Confession</title>
		<description><![CDATA[James 5:16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. 1 John 1:9-10 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives. These verses make it clear that we should take opportunities to confess our sins to each other. If we do so with sincerity and with a repentant spirit, God is faithful to forgive us of our sins. There is a website that makes sharing your Christian confession easy. You can also read other people's confessions too. Visit www.myconfession.com.]]></description>

		<title>What is the Faith of a Mustard Seed?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Luke 17:5-6
What IS the faith of a mustard seed. I always thought this meant having only a tiny faith. e.g if you had even just a little itty-bitty bit of true faith, you could do x. But reading it this time, I'm seeing it differently.

Put  yourself in the position of BEING a mustard seed. What sort of faith must you have in order to simply survive and live?

You must have faith that you will be blown in the wind to a beneficial spot, that you won't be eaten by the birds or bugs, that you will settle into a cozy spot in the ground, and receive rain from the heavens (not too much to be drowned, not too little to die, but just the right amount), and that you would be nurtured every day until you grow into a mature mustard tree, surviving all of the storms, wind, rain, hail, snow, and heat.

Isn't that true faith? Trusting in God's provision. Not wanting excess. Simply asking God for the basic needs of life, and expecting Him to take care of you, through His grace, love, and mercy.

Lord help us to have the faith of a mustard seed, whether that be a big faith or even just a little. Help us to HAVE faith in You!]]></description>

		<title>Religious &#8220;Tracts&#8221; &#8211; Good or Bad?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Article re-printed with permission from Changing the Face of Christianity. A few months ago, I picked up a religious &#8220;Tract&#8221; that was left by a person with very good intentions&#8230;to &#8220;save&#8221; a soul. For those of you who&#8217;ve never heard of &#8220;Tracts&#8221; or never seen one, it&#8217;s a small pamphlet that talks about Jesus and [...]]]></description>
