by Anna Reed
March 02, 2018

The first Friday in March of every year is World day of Prayer.
For today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what rock and pop songs do you want to hear where someone mentions God or praying?
To be clear, we're not looking for Christian rock -- but rather secular songs that pray in some way. Does that make sense? We think you'll get it.
