Take time to pray.

Choose how long you want to pray, or pray with no timer. If you like, a slow hymn instrumental (Amazing Grace, Blessed Assurance or It Is Well with My Soul) can play softly on a loop. A gentle chime tells you when your time is up, and you close with a verse to carry with you.

Dictate or record a message, a sermon note or a testimony and keep the text. Use it for yourself, or hand the same tool to your media team for live captions.
