I like the fifth one - the one about prayer. It makes a lot of sense.
Andy, nice meeting you here as always.
I haven't come across a verse where long prayers are the best prayers either.
Great quotes indeed!
"To be like Christ is to be a Christian."
Hei hi chu a tha khawp mai. We should never forget what Gandhiji once said: "I like your Christ. I just do not like your Christians". A ril lutuk. Shows how different we live our life as Christians compared to how Christ lived.

They work harder (or smarter), have higher moral values and etc. etc.
Christianity has become so diluted. I don't mean to be conservative, we should move on with time but it seems, time has conquered faith. This is bad.
