Often, the path of a Christian seems foolish to the world. It’s not wise, says the world, to put all your eggs in one basket. But for the Christian, there is only one basket—God’s.

Crops saved, cancer healed, angel visits, tornadoes diverted—Glenn and Ethel Coon share fabulous answers to “foolish” prayers. Well known in the 1970s as the authors of The ABC’s of Bible Prayer, the Coons share stories from across the country of those who asked, believed, and claimed God’s promises, and were lavishly rewarded for their faith.

While these stories took place decades ago, rest assured that God is still in the business of answering prayers, for He has promised, “Call to Me, and I will answer you” (Jeremiah 33:3, NKJV).
