Join Christian Singer/Guitarist Lisa Prokopowitz for another encouraging word picture about the Body of Christ.

This episode of the “Manna from My Father’s Hand” podcast is likely the final one in the series about the body of Christ and documenting my recovery from a fractured wrist.

This episode wraps up the prior ones in this series, with gratitude to God for all He has done/is doing, and the recognition that through it all, His amazing gift-giving nature is evidenced in the simple every day gifts He has given to us that we often overlook and take for granted.

It also wraps up the entire series by revisiting the question of "What are you offering?"

At the end, Lisa shares another of her songs from that concert in Ocean Grove prior to her fall that fractured her wrist. The hymn is called "When Morning Gilds the Skies", with the arrangement and several lyric changes by Lisa Prokopowitz.

During this wonderful Christmas season, when we so often consider gift giving and receiving, may we be increasingly aware of the MANY good gifts that God has given us, and may we consider what we can bring to the table to bless HIM this Christmas and beyond.
