Music Recommendation

Today you get two recommendations for the price of one. The first recommendation comes from Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC. Kingdom Come was released in the Fall of 2010. Similar to Passion, Gateway and Hillsong in style and lyrical content, this album is both intimate and celebrative.








We haven't given much press to albums featuring southern gospel or country artists. That is, until today.  Sisters is a contemporary southern gospel trio (I don't like labels, but what do you do?) made up of, you guessed it, sisters. All have been, at one time or another, a member of another great trio, The Ruppes. Every album these ladies have recorded, whether with The Ruppes, LordSong, or Sisters, has been outstanding. Their albums are not filled with songs that you would sing in a congregational or corporate setting, but they are songs that help focus your heart and mind on the Lord. They will have you tapping your toe one minute, crying a minute later, and shouting "GLORY!" just a second later. Start with their self-titled debut release (pictured here). It features several new songs, as well as familiar ones, like God of Wonders, Your Grace Still Amazes Me, and an out-of-this-world arrangement of The Lord's Prayer. The album also includes a new arrangement of one of my all time favorite Ruppes tunes, Under His Wings.
