Special Edition Morning Prayer in Easter
I've been out of town and got back late, so I decided to do something a little different for today's podcast. I've recorded 15 minutes or so of instrumental acoustic guitar. I invite you to set aside this time to pray, sing, and meditate upon Jesus. He is wonderful and I believe He will speak to you during this time. Let me know if this ministers to you!
See you tomorrow for our regular order and time together!
