Prayer Plant (Maranta leuconeura)
Prayer Plant (Maranta leuconeura) is a classic indoor foliage plant grown for its patterned leaves and the gentle daily movement that gives it the name. The leaves lie flat during the day, then lift and fold upward in the evening, adding a subtle rhythm that makes it feel alive in a room. Rich green foliage is often marked with contrasting veins and decorative blotches, creating a collected, curated look even when the plant is small. With a low, spreading habit and a soft trailing form over time, Prayer Plant works as an easy focal point on shelves, side tables, and plant stands while still pairing well with other houseplants.
Distinctive Features
The standout feature is the leaf movement, which is especially noticeable in consistent indoor conditions and adds a fun, interactive quality to everyday plant care. Leaves have a smooth, velvety look with strong patterning that reads well from across a room and looks best in bright, indirect light. The plant naturally grows outward rather than upward, making it ideal for low planters, shallow bowls, and hanging baskets where stems can drape. It is a strong choice for plant lovers who want bold foliage without needing high light or constant fuss, as long as moisture and humidity are kept steady.
Growing Conditions
- Light: Bright, indirect light is best; tolerates medium light, but avoid direct sun that can scorch leaves.
- Soil: Loose, well-drained indoor potting mix with added perlite or bark for airflow.
- Water: Keep evenly moist, letting the top inch of soil dry slightly before watering again; do not let it sit in water.
- Humidity: Medium to high humidity helps keep leaf edges clean; use a humidifier or pebble tray if air is dry.
- Temperature: Prefers 65 to 80 F; protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature swings.
- USDA Hardiness Zones: 11 to 12 outdoors; grown as an indoor houseplant in colder regions.
- Habit: Low, spreading, and trailing foliage plant.
- Mature Size: About 8 to 12 inches tall with a spread of 12 to 24 inches or more over time.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Use the patterned foliage as a standout feature on a table, shelf, or plant stand.
- Hanging Basket: Let stems trail for a soft, cascading look in bright corners.
- Bathroom Planting: A great fit for bright bathrooms where humidity supports clean leaf edges.
- Bedroom and Office Greenery: Adds a calm, decorative presence in spaces with steady indirect light.
- Mixed Houseplant Groupings: Pair with solid-leaf plants to make the leaf pattern pop.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering Routine: Water thoroughly, then drain excess; consistent moisture is key, especially in spring and summer.
- Humidity Support: Increase humidity in winter or heated rooms to reduce browning on leaf tips.
- Feeding: Feed lightly every 4 to 6 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength.
- Pruning: Pinch stems to encourage fuller growth and trim leggy runners to keep the plant dense.
- Repotting: Repot every 1 to 2 years or when roots fill the pot; refresh soil to keep growth strong.
- General Note: If leaves curl or look dull, check moisture first, then humidity and light levels.
Why Choose Prayer Plant?
- Interactive Leaf Movement: Leaves lift and fold in the evening, adding a daily ritual to your plant collection.
- Decorative Foliage: Patterned leaves provide year-round indoor interest without relying on blooms.
- Great for Indirect Light: Thrives in bright indoor spaces without direct sun.
- Compact, Trailing Habit: Fits shelves and small spaces, then gently drapes as it matures.
- Design-Friendly Texture: Works in modern, cozy, and collected interiors as a clean foliage statement.
If you want a houseplant with patterned leaves, gentle nightly movement, and a compact trailing form, Prayer Plant delivers year-round interest with approachable care.

A simple book with a powerful message!
Format: Paperback
A simple book with a powerful message!
If you are looking for a laymen’s guide on the arguments for the resurrection of Jesus, from every conceivable angle, then this book is for you. Habermas and Licona are two Bible scholars that have joined forces to provide both new and mature believer with everything they need to know to share their faith and knowledge on the resurrection of Jesus.
One of the great strengths of the book is that right from the start Habermas and Licona give us what they believe is a very powerful strategy for sharing the story of the resurrection which they call a “minimal facts approach.” The great advantage of this approach is that we can stick to the topic of the resurrection and not get sidetracked to issues on the reliability of the Bible. In addition this approach considers only those data that are so strongly attested historically that almost every scholar (including the skeptical ones) accept their truthfulness.
Under this approach the authors suggest that the first four facts below are almost universally accepted by all types of scholars while the fifth fact is accepted by a majority of scholars:
1. Jesus died by crucifixion.
2. Jesus’ disciples believed that he rose and appeared to them.
3. The church persecutor Paul was suddenly changed.
4. The skeptic James, brother of Jesus, was suddenly changed.
5. The tomb was empty.
The book also discusses the many different theories that skeptics have used down through the centuries to debunk the resurrection of Jesus. Some of the most popular theories include: the resurrection being a legend, the disciples stole the body, the witnesses went to the wrong tomb, the apparent death theory and the hallucination hypotheses. One by one Habermas and Licona give detailed reasons why each theory fails to align with the five minimal facts shared above. Throughout the book the authors appeal to both biblical and extra-biblical sources to make their case.
I especially enjoyed reading Chapter 8 – Naturally Speaking. In this chapter science, miracles and near-death experiences are discussed and the reader comes away with the realization that God does indeed exist.
Throughout the book a myriad of charts help to summarize each different idea and theory making it easy to remember the main arguments used to equip the believer with everything they need to make the case for the resurrection of Jesus.
I also found the chapter on People Skills especially practical in helping to prepare us with the wisdom we need to share everything we have learned in the book with skeptics and non-believers.
The appendix provides a very detailed outline of all the arguments and is the perfect refresher course for the book. The many pages of notes are an excellent source for anyone desiring to go deeper into the material. Finally the interactive game CD is a great way to reinforce many of the ideas from the book and is a fun way to help remember important themes.

An Excellent Book that Appeals to All Levels of Inquiry
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus by Gary R. Habermas and Michael R Licona makes a persuasive case for the historical resurrection of Jesus. What I like about this book is that it is structured for different levels of interest. The first 150 pages gives the basic facts surrounding the resurrection and addresses the major objections to the resurrection. The next seventy pages deals with the lesser known objections and offers some suggestions on how to dialog with objectors. The Appendix is almost thirty pages of a detailed outline of information provided which leads to the uniqueness of this book. It does more than gives you information; it makes a valent attempt for the reader to remember this information.
The authors helps the reader remember the information provided by providing nineteen flow charts which outline each major point (very helpful), the appendix, highlighted summaries, and a DVD game. The flow charts allowed me to quickly see the flow and the connection of each major point. The highlight summary sections quickly state the main points. The DVD game is imaginative and fun and is divided into ten categories with some two hundred questions which reinforced the material. The appendix is another avenue to gain quick access to the information.
The material and arguments are from a minimalist approach. The authors focus on information that almost all historians agree upon and how a historian determines the likelihood of an event. The mindset of a historian is not to say that something is true or false but to determine a scale or gradient to determine if something ranges from very doubtful to very certain. Some of the criteria of evaluating an event include multiple independent witnesses, attestation by enemies, embarrassing admissions, eyewitness testimonies, and early testimonies supporting the historical claims. When it comes to the resurrection of Jesus there are at least four and possibly five facts that land in the “very certain” category.
The historical claims that are graded in the very certain category are these four. One, Jesus died by crucifixion which is supported by five non-Christian sources. Two, the disciples of Jesus believed that He rose and appeared to them which is supported by nine sources in three categories pointing to a multiple and very early eyewitness testimony. Not only did the disciples of Jesus believe that they personally saw the resurrected Jesus, but they were willing to suffer for that belief which is attested to by seven ancient sources. Three, the church persecutor, Paul, was suddenly changed and became a martyr for this testimony which is supported by seven ancient sources. Four, Jesus’ skeptic brother, James, was converted and became a follower of Jesus which resulted in him becoming a martyr for this belief as reported by Josephus, Hegesippus, and Clement of Alexandria. Finally, the empty tomb is in a separate category from “very certain” (75% of scholars accept the empty tomb as a historical fact). The reasons that most scholars accept the empty tomb as a historical is because of the attestation of enemies, the culturally embarrassing testimony of the women, and the Jerusalem factor.
After establishing the historical events that are accepted by historians, the authors simply compare these facts against various alternate theories that have been floated over time. The question is, do these theories deal with the facts and which theory clearly stands out from all the other ideas because it deals with the facts? In short, there is but one idea that stands alone. “Therefore, Jesus’ resurrection is more than the most plausible explanation to account for the data. It is the only explanation that accounts adequately for all of the facts.”

Great Apologetic Resource
Format: Paperback
This is a great introductory resource for Christians who want to defend the hope that is within them. Habermas and Licona outline and defend a strong "minimal fact" argument for the resurrection of Jesus. In short, this historical argument argues for certain facts concerning the events surrounding the resurrection such as Jesus dying on a cross, the disciples claiming to have seen him risen, and Paul having a transforming experience of the risen Christ on the road to Damascus, etc. After arguing for all these alleged facts, the authors argue that a bodily resurrection fits the evidence better than any other theory. The strength of this argument is that it relies on multiple points each of which has a good body of evidential support. One can still claim agnosticism on the resurrection I suppose but I think that if one is honest (and philosophically open at least to be possibility of God acting in history via miracles) he or she would have to conclude that Jesus rose from the dead.
As I said above, this is a great introductory work. Someone who wants to delve further should read N.T. Wright's The Resurrection of the Son of God, and works by William Lane Craig on the subject. Read the other side as well both online at Internet Infidels and through books by Christian deconverts. Both authors quote other prominent New Testament scholars to back up their points while citing the original sources behind their alleged facts, ensuring that one who is earnestly seeking can check their work and investigate the matter for herself. The book also contains charts that visually summarize the points being made in the text which makes the material easier to remember. The book deals with alternative theories and then discusses the philosophy of Naturalism. I have read better critiques of Naturalism but this book does a good job of refuting pop-Naturalism I suppose.
The next part contains brief chapters defending the bodily resurrection view against the heavenly appearance view and that Jesus claimed divinity. I think these sparse chapters could have been lengthened, especially the chapter on Jesus' self-understanding to make a stronger case. The next chapter on Intelligent Design is really out of place in this book and should have been left out. If the authors wanted to give props to ID they should have done so in an Afterward or an appendix. The book is mainly about Jesus, what he was about and what happened to him, not about ID.
Lastly, the book has many endnotes which I much appreciate along with an extensive bibliography which I appreciate even more. Overall this was a very edifying read and can help you when someone challenges you about the evidential basis for your faith.
