A simple potato farmer with a mighty faith and a willing heart-God
steps in and changes everything, just like He can do for you.
Internationally bestselling author and ministry leader Angus Buchan
is the author of Faith Like Potatoes and the founder of Mighty Men
Conferences, which have drawn more than 500,000 attendees to
Buchan's Shalom Farm Ministry in South Africa, with additional
Mighty Men Conferences drawing thousands more worldwide. Although
Buchan speaks to thousands all over the world, he and his wife,
Jill, are simple potato farmers who know what it means to allow God
to do more through them than they could ever imagine. They founded
Beth-Hatlaim, a ministry that aims to provide a permanent home for
children who have been abandoned or orphaned, with no known
relatives. Buchan travels and leads crusades similar to the likes
of Billy Graham. This 365-day devotional will help you see what God
can do in your life when you believe big and open your heart.
Devotions focus on sharing your faith, serving others, and becoming
a little more like Jesus each day.

Every day is filled with opportunities for prayer as we ask for
help in facing life's inevitable difficulties, or seek ways of
expressing our feelings of gratitude, love and joy. This special
edition of some of the most moving, inspiring and comforting
meditations and prayers broadcast on BBC Radio 4's Prayer for the
Day is designed to be a true companion through our daily routine,
as we make decisions, overcome challenges and open our hearts to
others and to the world's wonder. In these uncertain and insecure
times, these prayers from a broad spectrum of religious traditions
show how the faiths are united by a desire to talk with God. And
they indicate how, with God's help, our days can be times of
healing, belonging, laughter and love, through the ordinary
circumstances of our lives.
Listening to someone else pray gives you an insight into their mind
- their hopes, concerns, and understanding of their relationship
with God. Spurgeon thought that prayer was a measure of the
vitality of the church - he once ushered some visitors into the
prayer meeting at his church with the words 'would you like to see
the church's power plant?' These are Spurgeon's prayers taken down
as he prayed them. You can learn a lot about how to pray by
studying their structure and content. Each short prayer shows you
the knowledge of the Bible he had and his understanding of human
needs.
'All we can do is pray.' How often we hear these words in the wake
of a disaster or a tragedy. At certain moments of great sorrow - or
great joy - praying seems as natural as breathing. The Nation's
Favourite Prayers brings together a selection of prayers - both
classic and modern - that can be used in a wide range of
situations. In the first part of the book, David Winter explores
the importance of prayer and offers guidance on different
approaches. The second part of the book contains 40 prayers, giving
the background to each prayer as well as the full text. Famous
prayers featured include: the Lord's Prayer, the prayer of St
Francis of Assisi, the Serenity Prayer, a Gaelic Blessing, a
Kitchen Prayer and the prayer of General Lord Astley before the
battle of Edgehill.
