WARNING:Here's my advertisement/plug for Andrew Peterson
Andrew is a friend of Stu's from Florida and we had him in to perform at Northeast a few times. A few years ago he produced and wrote a beautiful Christmas album (if that's what they're still called). ANYHOW, its the story of Christ, starting in the Old Testament forward to the birth. Its beautifully written and performed.
Each Christmas I like to have the chance to listen in entirety to the album, first to last with no breaks. Stu and I got the chance a few days ago. We were driving back from Nashville (we had flown down for Stu's dad's 80th birthday and the tickets were cheap out of Nashville). On the way home the kids slept and we listened. The sky was amazingly clear, the stars were shining and Andrew was singing the news of Jesus. It was a moment that made the Christmas season real. God spoke to us in our minivan and nothing is quite like that.
So, thanks Andrew. For writing, pressing on when producers told you this project wouldn't work, for being open to God and using your obvious writing talent.
AND if you'd like to order a copy, (you knew I couldn't resist the plug!!): www.Andrew-Peterson.com or https://store.rabbitroom.com/index.aspx
Its called Behold the Lamb of God.
