title: Return: An Illustration of Prayer
author:  Rebecca E. Roberts 
description: Rebecca is a devoted and grateful student of the Holy Spirit, who patiently teaches her the same lessons over and over again. She has also been a teacher of children and adults for the past thirty-two years in a variety of settings: public schools, churches, retreats, and youth camps. She loves to pass on to others the things she has learned in hopes of stimulating, in them, a desire for Father- Spirit-Jesus. Rebecca lives in Greenville, Illinois with her husband, John, of thirty years. She has a daughter, Rachel and a son, Josiah. She is currently privileged to be teaching her granddaughter, Ava Charlotte, the lessons in this book.
