7.24.18 Praise & Prayer Prompt: When We Compromise Christian Values

PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• As I was searching through pictures to make today’s graphic, I can across this photo of balloons floating away. It reminded me of something that happened a few weeks ago… My husband and I were driving home when balloons started showing up around us.

6.4.18 Praise & Prayer Prompt: When You’re Hangry

PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• Did you know there’s a record of hangriness in the Bible?

7.26.17 Prayer Prompt: Filtered & Unfiltered
