“Dormant seeds, some of which have waited years or even decades, all awaken at once.” A desert super bloom is an effusion of color in what had been sparse terrain. “The most dramatic bloom experiences don’t usually happen at paved overlooks or roadside pullouts, they unfold along lightly traveled roads.” -TrailsOffRoad.com
And so it is with God speaking in prayer when we persevere through the desert of ‘prayer dryness’.
My prayer life super bloomed during the Lent of 2017. It had been watered with constancy, with trust.
Unexpectedly, God’s Word converged with events, memories, and things that held particular meaning to me- it all defied reasoned explanation. I began to dare to believe that God was really speaking… to me… personally, in ways that delighted and astonished.
And then God made it clear, He wants this for everyone.
I WANT TO SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!!!!

The FREE Family Conquest program helps parents “Feed that Fire today… before it’s too late!”
- What Fire? The love of God and of family.
- Too Late? 13 is the average age a child rejects the Faith and his family in his heart! By age 22, that decision shows itself. Today, 85% of Catholic kids leave the Faith!
- Why This Works? WATCHING together Viral YouTube videos and BONDING together through the faith Q&A’s is fun and effective. It also helps parents and kids learn God’s language of parable, so they can discern God speaking in their prayer!
