My brother, Glen House, MD, was a typical twenty-year-old, college student when he suffered a skiing accident that paralyzed him.

God doesn’t apologize for how He created us. And while...

We called it Fill Up, Pour Out. One of the elements of our planning was incorporating prayer. We created a 30-day prayer calendar, modeled after one we found online. For the 30 days before our event, we had a team of people praying the same prayers daily. Some of us added fasting days once a week. God honored our dedication to making this His work.
