Music Tuesday - The Glorious Unseen

-
Today's album you will probably either hate or love. With Tonight the Stars Speak there's not much in between. The first time I heard it, I was captivated by the eeriness of the sound and then it turned to an unbelievable feeling of comfort. It expresses the mystery of God and the cry of hearts to Him in prayer.

The Glorious Unseen sounds more like a track title than the name of a band, but their music deserves a listen. I don't know how many of you have found virb.com, but a lot of the bands have full tracks on their sites. You can even build a playlist. Check out The Glorious Unseen on Virb.

I also found a video clip of Hear Our Prayers which is my favorite from the album.






Tuesday Giveaway:
The first person to reply to this post can pick whatever song they like from the Tonight the Stars Speak Album. I'm still giving away songs through iTunes gifts, but I'm working on a way to give away songs that won't need iTunes. So hopefully soon, you'll have a choice about how you can download your song.

Winner:
1. No takers, this deal is over.

Calvary Setlist Sunday March 9th:
Worthy is the Lamb
Holy is the Lord
We Fall Down
Worthy, You are Worthy

Music Tuesday - 2 Free Album Giveaways

I've had a lot of fun giving away music throughout the year, but what's amazing is how many times no one would take me up on the offer. So with all the money I've saved, I'm going to try giving away two album downloads on iTunes. Of course, as with all giveaways, there is a catch. Here's this one... This giveaway will be a drawing. In order to participate you need to share what you think is your favorite song or favorite album that you heard in 2008 . (The song/album can be from any year, but this year is when you really came to enjoy it.) You will need to post your comments on the blog -- facebook comments won't count. I will draw from the names next Tuesday, December 23rd, and the two winners will receive one free email gift certificate for $10 from iTunes for the music of YOUR CHOICE . So you can get an album or you can choose 10 different songs if you wish. Here's my favorite album of the year: Room to Breathe from Andy Gullahorn . This album is...

Friday is for Photos - Frosty January Morning

Frosty January Morning or A Bunch of Limbs with a Fence (Click on the image to see a higher resolution picture) I went out and shot this picture last Saturday morning. I've been by this spot before with snow, and even with a thicker frost. I think this time I got there just a little late and was hoping the sun would have been just a little lower. This picture is a hard call for me. When I first looked at it, all I saw was a dark fence and a bunch of tree limbs. But the more I looked at it, the more I liked the shadows on the posts and just the lighting of the whole picture. What do you think? A beautiful capture of a January morning or just a fence with some tree limbs? I'm not sure just what I think of it myself.

Are We The New Freaks?

I don't know anything about Carl Trueman, but JT (Justin Taylor) from Between Two Worlds has highlighted a couple of his posts these past few days. Here's what's scary... It appears Mr. Trueman and I were watching the same edition of the Rachel Maddow Show and it stirred both of us the same way. He wrote this piece after watching that show. I wrote my own "Troubled" parts 1 and 2 after I saw the show. I have been really thinking about what I see because of this incident and lo and behold Mr. Trueman has another post, Goodbye Larry King and Hello Jerry Springer , and it is exactly what I've been thinking. He words it so well. I wish I could have done the same. Here are a couple of quotes... What is becoming increasingly clear is that the day is probably not far off when those who regard homosexual practice as wrong will be consistently presented as the moral, cultural and intellectual equivalents of white supremacists... You can have the hippest soul patch i...
