Lifeline’s Eve…

Today Todd decided to call today “Lifeline’s Eve…” which, while unique, is defiintely TRUE!

Lifeline 2019 starts tomorrow on WNZR, and we are excited to hear from you during our annual day of Prayer and Praise.

Today our first Game Time Tuesday contest was Song Poetry…the lyrics are:

“Was I love when no one else would show up,
was I Jesus to the least of those?
Was my worship more than just a song?”

The answer was Live Like That by Sidewalk Prophets – congratulations to Kim from Mount Vernon who wins the $5 gift certificate to Troyer’s of Apple Valley.

Our Name That Tune featured song was a STUMPER!  We’ll tackle that one next week.
