Evelyn Carter Spencer leads campers through a breathing exercise built on the confession “Christ in me, the hope of glory.” She then describes coming to know Jesus not only as Savior and healer but as sovereign Lord.

Evelyn Carter Spencer retells how Peter and John told a lame beggar at the temple gate, “look on us,” before healing him in the name of Jesus. She presses campers with the question that gives the talk its urgency, can God depend on you. She preached this at the Kentucky CFO in 1974.
