I just added some new songs to THE MYSPACE PAGE. This record is WAY more pop than I've done in the past. These four songs will be proof of that. One of my friends has called the record "more accessible." I think he was being nice. When all the pop fluff is stripped away these are all lyrics that matter to me.

"Known" is a challenge to the way we posture and pretend. It's a call to shine some light on "all the hurt and shame you carry, all the tears and pain you've buried, every broken dream and every doubt."

"Hands" is a response to some quotes that stunned me. Oswald J Smith said "We talk of the Second Coming; half the world hasn't heard of the first." Currently more than 56% of the world's population has little or no access to the story of Jesus. Crazy! Jim Elliot said "He is no fool who gives up what he can not keep to gain that which he can not lose." Love is the language the whole world speaks!

"Teach Me How to Pray" is one of my favorites on the new record. As a professional wordsmith, I am so often left wordless when I pray. I think I'm learning how to listen.

"To The Nations" is a rich worship tune I've been using for the last few years. My friends, the Espy brothers gave birth to this simple gem a few years back and it remains my anthem. "Send us to the nations, to the broken. Lead us to surrender. We will go."

So I may rotate out the songs as I get a clearer sense of what you want to hear but I at least have started with a few of my favorites. I'm still aiming to have product at shows by June 2nd. That seems less and less likely with each passing day but I'm still trying! HERE'S THE LINK AGAIN.Enjoy the new tunes and spread the word.
