Recently, we ventured into dangerous, uncharted waters in our early parenthood months by experimenting with taking our darling baby boy to places where parents probably shouldn’t take a 7 and a half month old baby (right?). The first of such events was on May 7th. My wife and I really […]

“Behold the Side Project” by Scott Fryberger
Side projects. I really like the idea of side projects. I spent a good portion of one evening going through the list of Adam Young’s projects just because I wanted to hear them all (search for “list of Adam Young projects” on Wikipedia for a nice big list; you can […]
“Reaching the Unreachable” by J.M. Farro
My husband, Joe, has a long-time friend who has been running away from God all of his life. Several years ago, the Lord led me to begin praying for this man and his family on a regular basis. I stood on God’s promise which says: “He will even deliver the […]
We Recommend: Sixteen Cities, “Sixteen Cities”
God kind of has a funny sense of humor. The first time I ever heard anything by Sixteen Cities, I was doing Christmas shopping in Hollister (a clothing retailer known for their heavily secular values); “Sing Along” was playing and its lyrics and catchiness intrigued me. That was December of 2009, […]
10 Years Later: P.O.D., “Satellite”
The next installment of ‘10 Years Later,’ features P.O.D.’s Satellite. Not many remember, but this album was released on one of the saddest and most tragic days in American history, September 11, 2001. It was a terrible first week to get album sales, but the perfect timing for an inspirational song like “Alive.” When all […]
“Take Heart! Everyone Else is as Stupid as You” by Josh Taylor
In high school, I was the definition of a puppy dog crush, chasing this girl around as best I could without being too obvious. She always seemed cool, collected, calculated, mysterious… all the things I was not, growing up. I was attracted to that, but also saw it as a […]
We Recommend: Capital Lights, “This Is An Outrage!”
According to recent reports, the demise of Tooth & Nail punk rock group Capital Lights may be slightly exaggerated. However, as it stands now, the band has only left us two items to hold onto: One lone, but touching Christmas song, (“His Favorite Christmas Story”) and their outstanding debut, This Is An Outrage!. […]
“A World of Change (AKA A Trip to the Mall)” by John DiBiase
The past few weeks have certainly been a mix of crazy-busy-ness and “firsts” as a parent. Little Will has grown two teeth, had his first sips of juice from a kiddie mug, and treated his Dad’s lap like a Jumperoo while rockin’ out to music on my office stereo — […]
We Recommend: O.C. Supertones, “Adventures Of The O.C. Supertones”
It’s been over a decade and a half since the height of the third wave ska movement. The O.C. Supertones were able to help spread the movement into the Christian music industry because of the success of acts like the Mighty Mighty Bosstones and Reel Big Fish. Matt Morginsky and crew had several […]
