From Our Wicked Ways

Many people wonder if God still speaks. God wonders if people still listen. It was one o'clock in the morning when Maxie Hellmann was suddenly awakened to pray. With the presence of the Lord evident, He began speaking to her about taking a message to the churches in her city, a message of repentance. From Our Wicked Ways is the product of a yearlong mission to visit area churches and spread that word. Maxie uses notes from her journal as well as scriptural reflection to candidly document the responses of more than eighty pastors as she carries the message of repentance to saints and sinners alike. In doing so, she solicits an answer from every reader--an answer to a question that resonates infinitely beyond the city limits of Hickory, North Carolina, and bears the weight of eternity--a question that God Himself asks each of us: ""What will your response be to My word?""
