Game Time Tuesday

Game Time and Inspiration!

Today’s first Game Time contest featured these lyrics for Song Poetry:

When the sun won’t shine and you don’t know why
Look into the eyes of the broken-hearted…

The song was “Speak Life” by TobyMac – congratulations to Tanya of Howard who won the $5 gift certificate from Troyer’s of Apple Valley.

We also gave away tickets to the Outcry Worship Tour – congratulations to Bernalle of Mount Vernon who was our 5th caller…to our cue to call song “No Longer Slaves” by Bethel Music.

Hannah also shared a devotional from the Outcry speaker, Christine Caine. Here’s the link to the devotional Faithfulness leads to Fruitfulness!

The Spelling EEB topic was orchestra, but we didn’t have a winner…so it’s a stumper for next week!

Thanks for listening!
