Topic: Praying Again in America
Discussed by Pastor Johnny Teague

Many past and present sports players have been mocked and even fined for openly praying on the field or giving thanks to God. But, on Monday, January 2, 2023, that attitude changed in an instant.

Today, Pastor Johnny Mark Teague reminisces about a similar situation he experienced in high school, offering hope and encouragement to a hurting and hungry nation.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What memories did the injury of Damar Hamlin bring to Pastor Johnny?

Pastor Johnny once thought he was invincible. What changed during that moment on the field in Gorman, Texas? He remembers feeling relieved that it wasn’t his teammate, but then immediately feeling scared and helpless for the opposing team player.

The hit to Damar Hamlin was horrific. Millions of people across America and the world have seen it. Is this why the players on the field turned to prayer for their teammate and opponent? Did they all come together as one?

Why does Pastor Johnny believe that God heard the prayers for Damar? Pastor Johnny: “That’s the beauty of our God – He hears every prayer!”

When Pastor Johnny and others realized that the player on the field in Gorman, Texas, wasn’t moving, did they pray to God for healing?

Title: Part 2 of 2 - Word for the Week: Damar
Topic: Praying Again in America
Discussed by Pastor Johnny Teague
with Church at the Cross Houston (www.ChurchAtTheCrossHouston.org)

 Questions/Issues Discussed:

What happened to the player who collapsed and was injured that night in Gorman, Texas? What was God’s answer to their prayers for healing?

Damar has been released from the hospital! Praise the Lord! Is this a miracle from God? Pastor Johnny discusses the beautiful prayer from Dan Orlovsky on ESPN, saying, “We have seen God do a miracle in our day that should awaken all of us to His reality.”

If so many people do not believe in heaven or hell or an Almighty Creator God, why do they pray during difficult times?

Was it love that healed Damar or answered prayer from God?

What is Pastor Johnny’s prayer for our nation? He prays for open eyes and open hearts, reminding us that we cannot save ourselves; only God can!

What happens when our heart stops beating?
