"Sticky Faith" Praying for our adult children

Each of these decisions can be understood only by knowing how the two systems of "fast thinking" and "slow thinking"  work together to shape our judgments and decisions.   Both have benefits:  like "fast thinking" keeps you safe in emergencies where you mus...
