Hey everyone, Kelly Givens here. I want you to think about a little word with some big

implications. Stress. I don't have to say much more for you to start thinking about all the ways your life feels stressful and overwhelming.

In fact, I bet one of the reasons you listen to your daily prayer is because it's a calming way to connect with God amidst the stress of life.

If that's true, then I want to recommend our latest podcast to you.

Breathe, the Stress Less podcast.

Our host Bonnie Gray guides us through the effects of stress and gives us scripture-backed methods

You can find Breathe a stress-less podcast on Life Audio.com

or by searching your favorite podcast app.

We'll also have a link in the show notes. Check it out and
