"Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. The man who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know. But the man who loves God is known by God." - 1 Corinthians 8:1b-3

Book Review: "Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire" by Jim Cymbala
Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire (1997) by Jim Cymbala This is a very good book that focuses on the need for prayer
(and the lack thereof) in churches today. He does a very good job of
balancing the sovereignty of God with the responsibility of people,
which is a difficult task indeed when handling the topic of prayer. His
call is simple and straight-forward, we need to stop focusing on the
unimportant and come back to seeking God. This book caused me on many
occasions to stop and spend time seeking the face of God and cry out to
Him through prayer. I believe that this is a book I will recommend to
many people in the future, as well as reading it semi-regularly myself.
