Hour 1: The Promise Code

Start your week with Dawn and Steve in the Morning as they share a devotional from Blackaby Ministries International about learning to praise God in the midst of disappointment. 

Though the fig tree may not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines; though the flock may be cut off from the fold, and there be no herd in the stalls...yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.   Habakkuk 3:17-18

In addition, O.S. Hawkins will tell us about his new devotional The Promise Code. All proceeds go to Mission:Dignity. O. S. Hawkins is President and Chief Executive Officer of GuideStone Financial Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention. GuideStone serves more than 250,000 individual participants from churches, missionary organizations, colleges and universities, hospitals, and other non-profit institutions with their financial and benefit service needs.
