A Reverent Maverick

Anne Graham Lotz says her success is due to God. Yes. But she is still an extraordinary preacher.

Though we are sitting in her office, Anne Graham Lotz is beginning to preach, in the best sense of the word.

"You remember in the Old Testament when Elijah had the contest with the priests of Baal? And all day long they tried to get the fire to come down and they couldn't. And then Elijah said, 'All right, now it's my turn.' And he dug a trench around the altar and had water poured on the altar until the sacrifice was soaked, the wood was soaked, the stones were soaked, and water filled the trench?

"Elijah was making it impossible for anything to happen unless God did it. If God didn't send down the fire, that thing was never going to catch fire. He wanted all the glory going to God, so when the fire came down, everybody would know it was the Lord." the rest image
