This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell brings a deeply moving blend of spiritual insight, heartfelt prayer, and a soul-stirring musical tribute. Fresh Word Friday features Pastor Kenny Baldwin of Crossroads Baptist Church in Virginia challenging listeners to cultivate faithfulness in everyday acts—reminding us that being reliable in small responsibilities honors God, regardless of recognition or reward. Erica then leads a powerful prayer, anchoring Isaiah 54:17, Psalm 1 and Romans 12:2, declaring divine protection, wisdom, and discernment over children—a practice rooted in Scripture and echoed by many Christian prayer guides.  

The highlight of the episode is the interview with singer and pastor Dr. E. Dewey Smith, who returns with a moving rendition of “Lead Me, Guide Me,” a hymn his late father, Rev. Eddie D. Smith Sr., often sang. Dr. Smith shared how the recording is both a tribute and a response to today's uncertain times—urging listeners to root themselves in hymns and daily prayer as anchors against rising anxiety and societal upheaval. With its mix of spiritual exhortation, familial prayer, and rich gospel music, the show offers deeply rooted encouragement designed to uplift your faith, your family, and your daily life.
