I tried that once at a camera store and the owner was kind enough to point out that the problem with my camera was the person staring through the lens and that a good photographer could do great work even with a bad camera. I took his advice to heart and gave up my dreams of being a great photographer. Pat, fortunately, continues to press on! You can check out his work at ZoomInZoomOut.net. And if you’re not in a hurry, post a comment and let him know that Tim sent you.

    Why We Can Confidently Persevere in Prayer

    I remember the days when my children were younger and would ask me to give them something—then ask me again, and ask me again. At that age, they had no ability to gain or purchase these things for themselves, so they were entirely dependent upon their parents to grant their requests (which were usually for…
