We love gleaning prayer lessons from anywhere - including secular movies! This week join us for a really fun discussion about prayer lessons from the song “Defying Gravity” from the Broadway musical-turned-movie “Wicked.”

We talk about the transformation of the character Elphaba, who chooses to defy the limitations imposed on her by others, and relate it to the prayer lives of Christian women.

We also contrast Glinda and Elphaba, who ultimately take different paths but wish each other well and relate it to the need for Christian women to embrace our differences and support each other rather than tear each other down.
