After her daughter was killed in a drive-by shooting earlier this year and her son began using drugs to cope with the pain, one mother was overwhelmed. Unsure what to do or how to help, she posted about it on Wednesday in PRAYER WARRIORS, a Christian Facebook group with over 827 thousand members, requesting prayers for her son to get sober. Within an hour, there were over 100 comments beneath her post, most reading simply prayers or praying, as the group rallied around her as they do each day for dozens of members requesting prayers for illness, help through hardship, or even good luck for taking a test

Bidens big boondoggleIt was disappointing to read the usually insightful and intelligent Amotz Asa-El apparently believing the lies being peddled by the Biden administration to try to cover for their incredibly incompetent and poorly planned pull-out from Afghanistan (The will to fight: A users manual, August 20).
