A Divine Union Forged in Daily Prayer
Katrina Bills and Brooks James Rainey are a radiant example of what happens when two devoted believers build their relationship on the solid rock of prayer and faith. Splitting time between Tennessee and Texas, this committed Christian couple faces every season, new opportunities, relocations, and creative callings with one unshakable practice: staying prayed up together. They firmly believe that “prayer is the key to the kingdom and faith unlocks the doors,” and their lives are living proof that when a couple trusts God for the next step, every blessing flows from His hand.
Their love story is not just romantic; it is redemptive. Daily communion with God keeps them encouraged, turning potential obstacles into divine appointments. Whether navigating the demands of ministry or the excitement of new projects, Katrina and Brooks kneel first and move forward second, modeling a marriage anchored in unwavering spiritual intimacy.
From Radio Studios to Global Bookshelves: A Legacy of Faith-Fueled Achievement
The centerpiece of their ministry is Prayed Up, a transformative Christian devotional prayer book now translated into multiple languages and available worldwide on Amazon.com, Walmart.com, Barnes & Noble.com, independent bookstores, and churches. In a crowning moment, Prayed Up was honored with the Distinguished Favorite Award in the Christian category at the prestigious New York City Big Book Awards, an accolade that confirms their message of hope is resonating across continents.
Katrina’s remarkable journey began as an international award-winning poet and broadcaster. She launched the beloved morning program “Rise & Shine” on Flinn Broadcasting’s WAVN, uplifting listeners throughout the Mid-South region. The show later expanded to KATZ in the Dallas metropolitan area and now reaches countless more through iHeartRadio. Through her company, KB Writes Publishing, Katrina continues crafting inspiring new storylines for film and television while passionately advocating for libraries and literacy initiatives both domestically and abroad.
Together, Katrina and Brooks travel the country for speaking engagements and book signings, with an upcoming appearance at Tipton County Library already generating excitement. They pour encouragement into military families, longtime believers, new converts, and everyone in between, always serving with respect, integrity, and genuine love.
What sets them apart in a crowded field of Christian voices? Their authentic, Spirit-led partnership is a unique journey authored by God Himself. As they frequently share, “In all things give thanks; keep trusting God,” and “In all your getting, be sure of getting good understanding.” These aren’t slogans; they are the principles that guide every broadcast, every page, and every interaction.
A Mission to Inspire, Equip, and Win Souls for Christ
At its core, their calling is soul-winning. Katrina and Brooks are driven by the truth that the Kingdom of Jesus Christ has one unified mission: drawing every heart to the Savior. They believe prayers reach every walk of life, soldiers on the front lines, families in the home, seekers in the shadows, and they are determined to be vessels of that reach.
Their heartfelt life lesson to the world is timeless:“Never do anything to others that risks relationships, asking permission is always better than living with regret you can’t forget. Above all, obey God, regardless.”
Looking to the future, the couple is expanding their reach with new books, screen projects, broadcasts, and live events, all designed to glorify God and make an eternal difference. Their vision is bold yet beautifully simple: use every God-given talent to spread hope, heal hearts, and point the world to Jesus.
Stay prayed up. Keep trusting the journey. Watch faith unlock the extraordinary, one prayer, one page, one soul at a time.
