Slow Fade is one of my favorite songs from Casting Crowns. (even though it is hard to pick a single favorite from them... they are all my favorites) Their songs have so much meaning and truth to them. ♬ ♬ Be careful if you think you stand, you just might be sinking! ♬ ♬

Great New Music
After church last night we went to Wal-Mart to buy the new Casting Crowns CD The Altar and the Door, that just came out on Tuesday. I have greatly enjoyed their music, it has been such an inspiration to my life. Their songs seem to touch every aspect of our lives, no matter what the circumstances. It is hard to even pick a favorite, when it is easy to say that all the songs are my favorites! Songs like Does Anybody Hear Her, Praise You in this Storm, Love Them Like Jesus, What if His People Prayed, and the list can go on and on and each one has a message for your situation. But can they really get better? The answer is most definitely, YES! God has truly blessed them with wonderful talents. Their songs are so uplifting, yet convicting. It is definitely a must have to add to your collection. Two of my favorites already are Slow Fade and East to West. Buy it, you won’t regret it!~Sonya

Non-Conformists
Today as I was surfing the internet, checking out all the news and everything that is going on in the world, I read an article about the Christian music group BarlowGirl. With all the so-called “role models” for our girls to look up to, there are those still out there who ar
e trying to set the example that God would have them to be. It was refreshing to hear that they are not conforming to this world and it’s culture, but are setting godly standards for the younger generation to follow. On their web site they are quoted as saying, "In a world that constantly bombards us with impurity and immodesty, we feel called to take a stand against what the world is telling us is acceptable. Especially in the area of clothing and modesty." It is so important that we give our children an alternative to the pop culture of today , one that is focused on putting God first, and not compromising the truth. There are several that I recommend including Krystal Meyers, Joy Williams, Casting Crowns, just to name a few. That needs to be the motto of our lives-- God first, no matter what! Is what we are doing bringing honor and glory to Him, or are we promoting self and falling into this generation that says, “It’s all about ME.” Let us be the generation that stands for God first ~ that it is all about Him ~ and never cave in to the pressure that the world puts on us or our children to have to be like the world. God has set us apart as His children to be a peculiar people, non-conformists! Let’s live like it!
