Some may think the title of today's episode is in reference to a platitude, but for the purpose's of today, there was a lot to think about and some discussion on prayer throughout The Morning Cruise today.

Carmen is thinking about flying as the algorithms of her social media feed keep showing videos of planes with various issues. To help calm her fears, we got a call from a flight instructor who thinks it would be good for Carmen to have a seat behind the controls. Dave thinks otherwise.

Carmen is even thinking in her sleep. She had a dream that included a coworker and his wife. As she messaged them this morning to share the dream, she learned that the coworker's wife had a dream about her as well!

Our Prayer Line is a vital part of our ministry here at The JOY FM. Our latest JOY Story features a former intern of the show and her story of using the Prayer Line shortly after her dad lost his battle with mental illness.

Carmen thought of a way to encourage 100 people to give towards Sharathon and offered up a Stanley Adventure Quencher tumbler.

James Earl Jones is on the mind of many as the news of his passing at the age of 93 made headlines yesterday.

This political season has many thinking about the future. Carmen wants to know if you'll be like her and watch the debate tonight or avoid it like Dave will be doing.

As you think about politics, you may want to pray through the lens of Psalm 2 to calm your anxiety.

We think highly of Paige Brown and her Bible Study. We think you'll think the same way after watching the first video from her study on Joshua and Judges.

The family of Dave's daughter-in-law(s) has a unique tradition for family members on their birthdays. Dave doesn't know what to think about it, but he thinks he'll not be spending his birthday with their family.

We know how much you like The Chosen and we think you'll jump at the chance to win some virtual passes for ChosenCon.

When you see a happy couple posting frequently on social media, what do you think of their relationship? Carmen shared the findings of a study that the happiest of couples tend to post the least pics of each other.
