- That night multiple miracles happened and the church shifted to a weekly culture of the miraculous.
From Manger To Throne In Family Life
- Richard describes marriage and parenthood as successive glories that are different, not simply better.
- He uses his own family story to show greater glory can feel messy and cost sleep and comfort.
