Corrie came from a Bible-believing family. The Bible had a central place in their lives. The Living Word of God: the Lord Jesus Christ, spoke to them through the written Word of God. They read the Bible on a daily basis and knew many Bible verses by heart. These devotionals may help you to see the significance and application of these verses in your own life as well.

The book of Job chronicles testing a righteous man's faith through suffering.

In this 28-day devotional, I will be sharing insights on how to pray effectively and receive answers from heaven.
