I’m going to go out on a limb here, as I usually do with these recommendations, and feature a little known project by a band called Between Thieves. I often find myself recommending music on here that would be deemed fairly old (maybe even out-dated), but I think part of the […]

“God’s Warning and Rewards” by J.M. Farro
If it seems like I talk about the Word of God a lot in my writing, there’s a very good reason for that. The Word has changed my life, my family, and our circumstances, and I am determined to believe it, and to devote myself to it, all the rest […]
“Is Music Piracy An Issue?” by Roger Gelwicks
An issue I feel is very current in the music industry, as well as very relevant, is music piracy. The following is an excerpt from a paper I wrote a paper on the subject. This is indeed a controversial topic, so I’d love to see what comments you all have. ———————————————— Hard […]
“A Righteous and Abundant Life” by J.M. Farro
During my devotional time with the Lord earlier today, He led me to a verse in the book of Habakkuk that helped me to better understand how He wants His children to live. This verse says: “Look at the proud; his soul is not straight or right within him, but […]
“God’s Promise of Provision” by J.M. Farro
When my family and I have been in a tight spot, and we’ve been tempted to become worried or anxious, the Lord has often shown me some encouraging verses from Psalm 111. They read: “The Lord is gracious, merciful, and full of loving compassion. He has given food and provision […]
We Recommend: Your Heart, “Autumn”
For a guy who puts out several EPs a month with six different projects, you might think that Andrew Huang goes for quantity over quality. However, the man is consistently solid with very few missteps along the way. One of his best pieces of work is his album Autumn from his indie/folk/pop […]
“Is The Light Being Hidden?” by Nathaniel Schexnayder
Recently I had the privilege of attending Winter Jam. The following day at work, my co-worker who covered for me inquired about my absence. I went on to tell him that I went to a Christian concert. He asked who was playing there, and I said some Christian rock bands […]
“Believing God for Rich Rewards” by J.M. Farro
During my quiet time with the Lord recently, He impressed upon my heart that I was unnecessarily losing out on some of the rewards He had for me. When I asked Him how I was doing that, He led me to Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV), which says: “But without faith it […]
10 Years Later: Skillet, “Alien Youth”
So, my original concept idea for this blog was to pit a release from 10 years ago with a new release from the same artist 10 years later (so, it’d be like, for example, Steven Curtis Chapman’s 2001 Declaration album versus his announced new release for sometime this year… which hopefully I’ll […]
“The Art of Distraction” by John DiBiase
So, I’m well into the swing of baby daddy duty (AKA I’m Mr. Mom now). Thankfully, Will’s grandma (also known as my wonderful and gracious mother) has been helping me out with Will on the days Amy is back at the hospital as an operating room nurse. Amy’s still breast […]
