Hey Everyone!

You've wanted it! You've asked for it! It's finally here! The new MacBook Pro from Apple! haha... jk! What I'm really here to tell you about is the new Live Skillet DVD! (I'm pretty impressed with my cleverness... Haha.) Our Comatose tour was an amazing time and we wanted to give you all a chance to take it home with you. So check it out! It's way cool! I'm probably more excited about it then some of our fans are. It's sad. Haha. See what reviewers are already saying about it...

We've really enjoyed having some time off the last few weeks. It's been a busy year for us. Winterjam, Comatose Tour, summer festivals... You all made it a great year. So thank you for that! You're the reason that we had such a good year!

We are right at the beginning of working on a new record. The record will be called... jk. We have no idea what it's gonna be called (I dunno why I think it's funny to make those jokes.. ) Anyways! Please be praying for us, it's a long process that we are just beginning. John's been working very hard at preparing the songs. We've spent a while working on pre-production demoing the songs out so we can get a rough idea of what the songs will be like. It's coming along. I'm very excited to record. It's been almost 3 years for us!

One of the things that we will be introducing that we're REALLY excited about is the Skillet Live Webcam. THAT'S RIGHT! You will be able to watch and listen in to us making the record.... as we make it! I don't think I've heard of any other bands doing this. Very cool! Check it out!

I feel I have to say at least something about whats' been going on in the world of politics and our economy. I won't go into any details or share any of my views, but I just want to encourage everyone to be in prayer. Pray for our nation, that it would be honoring to God. Pray for our potential leaders and our current leaders that they would have wisdom in leading our nation. Pray for God's light to be seen, that amidst the craziness of everything going on, there would be a light of hope and peace shining through. I've been watching the news a lot lately and I can only imagine how easy it is for people to become afraid of what "could happen". What we need to remember is there is a God who is in control. No matter what government official is in charge. No matter what drop or bailout is going on in the economy. We can know a deep peace that transcends all understanding.

That's the latest with us! Keep checking back for more of our video blogs. Now that I have a new laptop I will be more consistent with those videos! Woohoo!

Thank you again for all the support!

I totally agree with what you said about the economy. I just wrote an essay for my Psych of Religion class at Southwestern College in Phoenix on the same things you said about God being in control no matter who is in office. I totally agree! Can't wait to hear the new live album and new studio one you guys are working on. You put on the best shows hands down! Keep up the good work and never forget why you're doing it. Stay True!
-One Love

Heyy Ben!
I'm glad to hear that everything is going smoothly!
I ordered my 'Comastose Comes Alive' DVD about a week ago so I hope that it comes today! :]
what you said about God being the one in control is so true and I've really never thought of it that way so thank you so much for putting that into perspective for me!
guess what!?...
I am totally already missing you!
I know we just saw each other on the 4th but it seems too long ago :(
I hope I'll get to see you again next year!
also this blog made me smile and laugh alot...your cute little jokes are funny :]
take care Ben!
Love & Miss you
- Kathryn
