Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! Today we celebrate the day that the Great Creator God, Lord of all, that commands the galaxies and stars as to how they should go, humbled Himself to the stature of a lowly babe, born in a feeding trough, recognized by angels and shepherds, kings and creatures, that we might have a chance to be reconciled to Him in the greatest display of Love ever, a love that spans the gap between heaven and earth. And what a beautiful day to celebrate this! I pray you are having a lovely day with friends or family or even with strangers, exchanging gifts and spreading love amongst one another.

Two years ago I recorded two Christmas singles. I definitely had a little bit of a different musical taste back then. Haha, but to get to my point... When I released them, I had said that all of the proceeds would go to Gospel for Asia's Christmas gift program. All of the money has been saved over the last two years, and this year that promise comes into fruition. A community in South Asia will be able to build a BioSand Water Filter. This is a filter that uses concrete and sand to remove impurities, providing water for drinking and cooking that is 98% pure. Many poor regions of Asia have no source of pure drinking water and a filter like this can make a huge difference. There is a short video of one of these filters in action at the bottom of the post.

With this news is also the news that the Christmas singles will no longer be available through most major digital distributors, but they can still always be found here.

Thank you all so much for supporting a great cause over the last two years in your purchasing of these singles. There are people in South Asia that will be drinking pure water for the first time, and I'm sure they are incredibly grateful.

Merry Christmas,
