I put Thee on the throne in my heart. Change, cleanse, use me as Thou shalt choose. I take the full power of Thy Holy Spirit. I thank Thee.“ —from an entry in Borden’s journal  The life of William Borden (Borden of Yale) might be one of the greatest stories that can be used to inspire the next generation to impact the world for Christ.
