    Pray.com Loves The Dunham’s
    The Dunham Family has completely transformed the team at Pray.com, our approach to media ministry, and the way we embrace building a kingdom business. It’s rare to find such innovative folks that bridge the gap between Church, Technology, & Media. Trent and team have been an absolute blessing to our company, our family, and me as a leader. I am grateful that God has given such a special friend, partner, and leader to do life with. So excited for what is to come out of this podcast. -Steve
