The international house of prayer in Kansas City. I had a friend go to this for ~5 months this spring. Anyone do this or know someone who did?

i'll be honest with you, b...i'd rather have pancakes

I tried to warn him it's a cult... (and there would be no blueberry pancakes).

for those unfamiliar, its a christian organization that promotes 24/7 prayer. they have a campus and recruit young adults from all demographics. the isolate them for the most part and are strict about external information, female/male relations, dissent against authority etc.

Speaking of crazy religious groups obsessed with prayer.

Quote :

"BALTIMORE — A toddler whose remains were found inside a suitcase in Philadelphia in April was starved to death by members of a religious cult, including his mother, in part because he refused to say "amen" after meals, police said. "

i love uber religious people

thats a bull crap religion because if you are spending 24/7 praying how are you going to be a witness to others?

thats a big part of faith

^ or eating or sleeping or defecating...you know, things that are required for life

i guess the goal is to die praising god? or maybe it's more like 23:30/7
