We can easily be dismayed by the hate and cruelty that exists in the world. But the response can be very simple: We are God’s children. We believe in love for our neighbor. We hope and pray for a bright future. And so, Christ is the image that we must pattern our lives after. https://soulenandsoulen.com/

27. Why do molecules pray?

We might think of “prayer” as a universal phenomenon in all living things….and the following podcast focuses on this topic! https://soulenandsoulen.com/
