Mrs. Brantley reiterated some basic habits we should have as Christians, including how prayer should be as natural to our daily lives as breathing. We do not even think about breathing, and so we should not even have to think about spending time daily in silent meditation and prayer.

Mrs. Brantley spoke to students about tools in a toolbox, referencing Corinthians 12:4-7, summarizing, "There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different types of work, but the same God works all of them in all men." Mrs. Brantley showed the students a toolbox with all kinds of different types of tools in it, telling them that God has many different tools in His toolbox - which are the members of the Church. He uses us for special purposes - much like a chef uses a whisk and not a wrench to mix food together.
