Christian Artists Respond with Wisdom to What Happened in Orlando

We woke up to more devastating headlines. This should not happen. And again, we ask ourselves the question - How on earth do we respond? The artists you hear on WAY-FM have been responding with wisdom. We don't have all the answers, but here are some heartfelt reminders of truth as you think about this today.

Sharing how to pray

Our hearts and prayers go out to the people of Orlando. We pray that God will bring peace and comfort to those directly affected.

With love, compassion, and empathy

So much hate and violence. Hopefully we can respond with love and compassion.

I wish we could have 24 hours to just collectively hurt with people, before everyone dashes to their favorite political narratives. — Brant Hansen (@branthansen) June 12, 2016

Focusing on what we know is true
