So last year, I wrote my first song. I totally forgot that I sent in a copyright registration for it (though i think technically you don’t really need to do that).

These lyrics just reverberated in my head today as I listened to them a number of times.
I read an article about McMillan this morning and two things hit home – one about his songwriting and the other about worship, but both dealing with being honest with God.
A few years ago, a friend introduced me to Lovelite, a group from Southern California whose purpose is to “inspire praise in the hearts of God’s people and desire in the hearts of the lost.” Their latest release, Nearness, is an album that is heavy rotation on the old iPhone lately.
