Prayer: the ultimate study resource
Originally appeared on spirituality.com
I was finalizing the coursework I needed to graduate from college—at last!—when I discovered I needed one more elective. It had been a long haul to get to this point. Frankly, I was ready for college to be over. I scanned the options and found a course that seemed easy.
After all, how hard could “Classical and Middle Eastern Mythology” be? There were only two scheduled exams. The textbook was a slim paperback filled with myths from various ancient civilizations, and we were never assigned anything from it.
I'd really hit the jackpot this time. I had taken a lot of heavy-duty courses over my college career: computer science, calculus, and increasingly advanced accounting. I looked forward to coasting my way through this last class. Frankly, I thought registering for this course was an answer to prayer.
