The following list is simply one long time Christian music fans eighteen wishes regarding Christian music. It’s a just-for-fun list of the things I’m hoping for, or that I’d like to see happen. I realize that outside of an actual time machine some are impossible, but hey, one can dream […]

Jars Of Clay And The Art Of The Resurrection “Arms nailed down  Are you telling me something?  Eyes turned out  Are you looking for someone?” – “Liquid” by Jars Of Clay Having grown up in the Church, I’ve seen both the best of what a life of faith can bring […]

In early 1996, my family got the internet at home for the very first time (dial-up! Ugh…), and I used to love scouring the new sites on the web dedicated to the individual bands or record labels and the few existing Christian music media sites at the time, like CCM […]

Where to begin with an album that means so many things to me (and so many others)? An album that is tied to so many great memories? I would submit to you that this album is the perfect soundtrack for any activity, for any mood. Whether you’re chilling, cleaning, studying, driving with […]

Much Afraid was actually one of the first albums I really got into. Although Jars Of Clay’s sophomore project isn’t as predominant as their classic self-titled debut, it still manages to stand on its feet.
