We talk about all sorts of life issues on Friends for Life. In this episode, we use this time to talk about taking these issues to our Lord in prayer.

Prayer is a gift that we have been given as people united to Christ. Special guest Renee Gibbs joins the show to talk about the where, when, and how of praying for life issues as part of a Christian’s daily practice of prayer. Click here to download the PDF Pro-Life Prayer Calendar Resource.
