I'm happy for you that religion is important in your life. However the real estate market is not impacted by a person's beliefs.
First of all I hope you're using a real estate agent. However, you really need to use an experienced agent who's not going to give you a load of B.S..
Sometimes it's difficult for agents to really be honest & up front with their clients for fear of losing the listing & possible sale. You see, even though your home hasn't sold in 8mos. the listing agent IS still benefiting by getting "sign calls" from your yard sign.
You need to talk to another real estate agent, and ask their opinion.
Here's what their answer will most likely be: You are over priced.
I know that's tough to hear, I know your think you home is the best on the block. The market is a lot tougher now, there's an extraordinary amount of inventory (competition).
Price is your ONLY factor. All across the nation, what homes were selling for in your neighborhood 6-8mos. ago are not what they're selling for now.
You can feel free to email me, I'd be happy to refer you to a no nonsense , honest agent. Just let me know what city & state you're in.
The positive side to this is: Although you may not be making as much on the sale of this home as you would have liked, if you plan on staying in your next home for a minimum of 3yrs, you'll probably build back up the missing equity. Plus there are so many choices out there now, for when you do become the buyer.
tip: when you do get into escrow on your home, do NOT make an offer on another home until you're about 1 week away from closing. Try to "rent back" your current home for up to 60days, this way you can shop for your next home stress free as a strong buyer.
i hope this helps

Prayer and a good real estate person, will help you more. GOD is not a puppet master requiring you to stand a statue on its head to get help. In the new testament Paul writes " if we being evil know how to give good gifts to our children, how much more does our heavenly father love us." Seek him, trust him, and he will lead you in the correct path.

You bury it head down and facing the house. Good luck.

Why don't you ask God for help instead of relying on a saint? Don't stop short from the big guy!
