TWO HOURS OF JESUS I visited Tyler at a Christian transition house in South Minneapolis. For two hours he told me what Jesus has been doing in his life through the power of the Holy Spirit.

GOD’S FAVOR What does your heart long for? Is your main dream a happier family, a better home, a new job, a healing touch? Or is it the hope of God’s glory, which transforms all life?
