"Trouble won't kill ya." In his song, "La Vie," Billy Sprague tells the story of his grandmother Myrtle and the trials she had lived through, outlasting two husbands, all of her sisters, brothers, and cousins. Myrtle was left to wonder why she was still alive. I can't help but think of Mom today and all she lived through. She came from a family of nine children, but she buried most of those siblings before her death. She endured a miscarriage, the death of a son by suicide, her husband's descent into dementia, and the challenges of her own weakening body. Still, I think she and Myrtle would have agreed. As Billy Sprague put it, "She smiles and she'll tell ya, 'Trouble won't kill ya,' 'cause if it did, she would have died." The chorus of the song plays between French and English. "Oh, la vie est dure, that much is sure. Mais Dieu est bon si bon." As Dad would say, "Pardon my French" (sometimes I doubt that he actually knew French); the lyrics translate, "Life is hard, but God is good, so good." The chorus concludes, "Through the fire and the rain, I call him by name. And when the night is long, I remember mais Dieu est bon (my God is good)." Grandma Myrtle and my mom each had a simple faith. They didn't have answers to the tough questions, but they endured the fires that burned through their lives. So today at Kansas Christian Church, we turn to 1 Peter 4:12, "Do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you." Maybe we'll hear something of Myrtle and Marge echoing back, "Trouble won't kill ya." And encouraging us on with, "God is good, so good."

Welcome to The Shaun Tabatt Show! Today my special guests are Billy and Willow Sprague and we'll be discussing their album Songs in the Key of Awe. About The Album:A true family affair from start to finish, Songs in the Key of Awe features vocals by Sprague's daughter Willow, his son Wyatt on djiembe, photography by his wife Kellie and joyful encouragement from their young son Sawyer. Sprague also tapped the formidable talents of guitar virtuosos Phil Keaggy, Dave Beegle and Dan Dugmore along with respected Nashville producer Jim Frazier to create an unforgettable listening experience. While Songs in the Key of Awe is jam-packed with great songs, Sprague encourages listeners to experience the whole album from start to finish. "From the opening sound of a bird taking flight to the final notes of "Reflection in A," the songs, pace and spaces are intended to create room to 'breathe deep of His grace' as one song lyric puts it," he muses. "I pray this music helps amplify your awe of the Lord, His creation and redeeming touch on your own grace story." One thing so gratifying to Sprague about Songs is the Key of Awe is that the music was created "not primarily as an artist," as he puts it, "but as a worshipper and worship leader of a local community of faith, doing life together. Another community of faith through Kickstarter, helped make it happen. To me that's beautiful."
