Rosary Beads - A Treasured Prayer Aid Through the Ages
History reveals that a system of counting the prayers was used as early as the 4th century by the Desert Monks using a series of stones or knots on a string. In Medieval times, the use of rosary beads was adopted by the laity, as many could not read, the repetitive and regular reciting of the Pater Noster (Latin for "Our Father"), and later the Hail Mary, while meditating on the prayer beads was a way to show their devotion to their Christian faith.

Church Planting - Furthering His Kingdom (Part 1)
It is amazing how God fits us early on for the tasks He alone can foresee. The first church planting I was involved with was when my wife and I spent ten years in Ireland working with a newly planted church in Dublin and then with a team that planted the church in Limerick. Those were hard years with very little to show for our labors.

The Presence of My Heavenly Father
Some critics mock the God of our creation by saying if He is real then why doesn't He show himself just as the mockers of the Bible mocked Jesus when He was hanging from the cross saying, 'if' The Bible says God is a spirit and according to the Word of God spirits are without shape or form, but see I don't need to see my God in shape or form to know that He exists because I know He is real.
