Shh... Its a secret!!

Yes the rumor is true I have indeed started some basic recording again. With my friends Brian & Zach Wetzel who are members of my church family Crossway Fellowship.

Brian is a talented and humble young writer who feels compelled to write lyrics that provoke the Gospel, he has a natural earthy more laid back feel to his style. All of his recent writings revolve around worshiping his Lord & Savior Jesus Christ.

Zach comes along side his older brother with much the same earthy worshipful laid back feel. He brings a level of musical understanding that is both insightful and helpful. He is a rhythmic player, and brings us much laughter as he is constantly joking around. His joy obviously comes from his Love of God. He is a passionate pursuer of righteousness.

I was asked to be apart of this recording after the Wetzel brothers (as I commonly refer to them as) had prayed about it and talked it through. I was humbled by their request to have me apart, I know that they could have found someone more qualified for the task than I some one of their friends perhaps with more talent whose had more experience. I am blessed and honored to be able to join their musical endeavors.

Monday morning we got together in their studio (which is located in their house) and looked through our "options" we actually accomplished more than I thought we would. We designated which songs we would chose to have on the CD practiced several of them and pre-prerecorded one of them.

I have enjoyed this more "laid back" approach to recording. We started with prayer (totally new for me it would have gone totally against "how we did it" in my past recording days.) Seeking the Lords guidance as we begin this new task. We laughed alot as I messed up and we kept singing anyways. Something else new for me... I'm not just singing I am playing the guitar and piano... never done that before. I was surprised to find that i was not nervous about this. God's Grace!

I'm not at liberty to tell you what we are recording currently because yes it is a Christmas surprise :)... You will just have to wait and see. But what I can tell you is that our main goal in recording is to glorify God.

If you do not mind I would LOVE to have prayer for this. That God would use us, use our giftings to provoke the Gospel in the Unbelievers that this will reach or that our lack of gifting would not distract from how God would wish to speak, that we would remain humble and give all the Glory to God. I'm excited to see where this will lead!!
