Send us a textImagine a generation shaped by hardship and resilience, yet taught to hide their emotions behind a stoic facade. What happens when those silent struggles are passed down through the family tree? Join us on a thoughtful journey as we explore the legacy of the silent generation, born between 1928 and 1945, and the profound impact of their unaddressed traumas on subsequent generations. From the stark realities of the Great Depression to the seismic shifts of World War II, we paint a vivid picture of the societal forces that demanded stoicism and emotional suppression, setting the stage for a cycle of unresolved trauma. Our conversation emphasizes the silent generation's influence on baby boomers, highlighting the challenging balance between the values of discipline and the longing for emotional warmth.As we unravel generational parenting patterns, we reflect on how these silent struggles often led to rebellion or conformity among baby boomers, occasionally manifesting in destructive behaviors like substance abuse. Our guest, Mama Gowan, brings invaluable insights into how millennials are courageously challenging these inherited norms to cultivate healthier emotional expressions. With anticipation, we prepare for Mama Gallen's upcoming session, where her firsthand accounts of wartime resilience will offer further clarity. We affirm our shared commitment to addressing and healing generational trauma, offering hope and encouragement to those willing to confront these challenges in search of peace and a renewed understanding of their intrinsic worth."You Already Know" used by permission and license from MusicBedThe Music Bed LLCLicense AgreementSECTION IProject DetailsVideo Title Wednesdays With WatsonProject Name Wednesdays With WatsonPersonal Channel @authoramywatson@instagram.comLicense DetailsRecording(s) "You Already Know" by JJ Heller (3:34)Individual Youtube Creator / PodcasterClients No client or brand/company workDistributionsStandard Coverage - Web / Social Media (Up to 1 million subscribers), Podcast (Up to 10k monthlydownloads)Monetization IncludedLicense Date November 20, 2024You ARE:SEEN KNOWN HEARD LOVED VALUED

Voices In My Head (the Rick Lee James Podcast) Episode 553: Kenny & Claire Pointing listeners to the Hope of Christ amidst life's troubles, critically acclaimed husband/wife folk duo Kenny & Claire are set to bow their full-length debut, Upon the Storm, July 19. Produced by GRAMMY Award-winner Mitch Dane (Brandon Heath, JJ Heller), the 12-track set showcases four freshly penned originals and eight modern renditions of enduring hymns. The album's title-cut, a stirring take on William Cowper's 18th century hymn “God Moves in a Mysterious Way,” features updated verses and a new arrangement by Kenny & Claireand Mitch Dane. "God Moves (Upon the Storm)" carries deep meaning for the couple following Kenny's struggle with a brain tumor as well as a life-altering chronic illness diagnosis. Hallmarked by thoughtful, organic arrangements firmly anchored in a folk/Americana soundscape, Upon the Storm also offers Kenny & Claire's signature take on such classic hymns as “O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus” and “Come Thou Fount,” among others, along with a uniquely emotive rendition of the popular Keith Getty and Stuart Townend-penned hymn, “In Christ Alone.” New selections including “Surely His Goodness,” “Have Mercy on Us” and “We Believe”—all written by Kenny & Claire and Mitch Dane—bridge the past and present with thematic consistency. ABOUT KENNY & CLAIRE Beginning their musical journey together in 2005—writing songs, performing and leading worship throughout the Carolinas—Kenny & Claire Hilliard were married in 2008 but paused their creative pursuits while Kenny attended seminary and the couple started a family. In 2015, during Kenny's tenure as a senior pastor and worship leader in Asheville, North Carolina, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Shortly after successful surgery to remove the tumor, Kenny received a second diagnosis, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome—a degenerative genetic disease that left him temporarily impaired. The couple embraced a return to music during Kenny's recovery, founding a music teaching studio and further honing their songwriting craft by penning modern hymns for their home congregation. Known for their emotive acoustic/folk originals and organic revivals of theologically rich hymns of yesteryear, Kenny & Claire's critically acclaimed debut EP, Are You Weary, released in 2021. In addition to participating in Getty Music's prestigious International Hymn Writing Collective, the couple's music has been highlighted by Under The Radar (UTR) and in The Rabbit Room's New Music Roundup, and Claire was also named among “Ones to Watch” by the Nashville Songwriters Association (NSAI) in 2021. Kenny & Clairenow reside in the Nashville area with their three children, and they maintain an active touring ministry, leading worship and performing in numerous churches around the country each year.

Today, I take you through my personal journey with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), sharing the relief and validation that came with understanding my diagnosis. We'll explore the critical importance of seeking professional help, navigating through the historical context of PTSD in the Diagnostic Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM), and understanding how trauma uniquely impacts each individual. Join me as I recount my experiences living with PTSD, including memory lapses, hypervigilance, and sleep disturbances. These symptoms profoundly affected my everyday life, but therapy, medication, and support programs like Lauren Starnes' "When the Body Talks" played crucial roles in my path to better mental health. This episode aims to shed light on the complex interplay between trauma and the mind, emphasizing the need for consistent care and professional evaluation. In our concluding discussions, we focus on the healing journey, exploring effective treatments such as EMDR, cognitive behavior therapy, and complementary therapies like mindfulness and yoga. Reflecting on the biblical story of the man at the pool of Bethesda, I encourage you to ask yourself if you truly want to heal and take those necessary steps toward well-being. Embrace the beauty in everyday moments, create lasting memories, and recognize the everyday miracles that affirm your worth and presence.Is It PTSD?

Provide your IG handle and follow on IG for a potential answer to your question:Follow Amy on InstagramDr. Catherine Jackson on InstagramHave you ever wondered how to carry Christ's love into the challenging spaces where trauma resides? Dr. Catherine Jackson, known affectionately as Dr. J, graces our podcast with her deep understanding of neuropsychology and trauma-informed therapy. As we walk through Mental Health Awareness Month, we peel back the layers of trauma's impact on our church communities and the crucial role of creating safe, healing environments.This episode is a heartfelt exploration of the ways we, as a church body, can better recognize and respond to the pain beneath the surface. From the importance of simple gestures like a cup of coffee invitation to the transformative power of patient listening, we discuss the balance between sharing and oversharing within our faith communities. We also delve into the significance of trauma response, especially in women's ministries, and how leadership can navigate these sensitive realms with compassion and grace.As we wrap things up, we contemplate how mental health support teams could revolutionize care within the church, mirroring the compassion Jesus exemplified. We also prepare for our next meaningful conversation with Lainey Gibney on trauma-informed foster parenting. Join us for this rich dialogue that promises to empower you with wisdom and empathy, ensuring that everyone feels seen, known, heard, loved, and valued – because that's exactly what Jesus would do.LICENSE FOR "Better" by JJ HellerSECTION II Trauma-Informed Church Wednesdays With Watson Wednesdays With Watson "Better" by JJ Heller (3:35) Youtube Creator / Podcaster No client or brand/company work Standard Coverage - Web / Social Media (Up to 1 million subscribers), Podcast (Up to 10k monthly downloads) Included May 20, 2024 This License Agreement (the "Agreement") is a legal contract between you ("End User" or "Licensee") and The Music Bed, LLC ("Musicbed" or "Licensor"), a Texas limited liability company with its principal office located in Tarrant County, Texas, for the purpose of Licensee's use of certain rights in and to musical compositions and sound recordings (termed "Recordings" hereafter).

"Ever wondered how a sprig of parsley can elevate not just your cooking but your entire day? Well, pour yourself a cup of tea and join Morgan and Taylor as they meander through tales of culinary experiments with garden-fresh ingredients, like the unexpected delight of a mid-winter tabouli. They also peel back the curtain on their couple's podcasting journey, sharing those unscripted moments of laughter (and learning) that come from microphone blunders. And if your breakfast routine needs a little inspiration, Taylor's got a secret omelet recipe that'll transform your morning fare into a gourmet delight.This episode is a tapestry of sounds and stories, woven with threads of musical nostalgia and refreshing conversations. Savor the classic tunes of Fleetwood Mac and the soothing calm of JJ Heller's sleep album, as they traverse the landscape of their cherished albums. Switching gears, they dive into the pages of Elon Musk's biography, drawing parallels between his life and our own adventures in thought and innovation. And as they put on their farmer hats, they explore the practical wisdom nestled within the pages of Farming Magazine and the humorous yet insightful musings of authors like Feynman and Logsdon, equipping them with not only laughter but actionable advice for managing their little slice of the pastoral world."

With all the voices speaking into our teenage girls today, let's be sure ours is one. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Kathy Knochel and Katie Miller turn up the volume on 3 critical ideas from which our teenage girls would benefit. And it's no surprise, God very much wants to speak into these important matters. Show notes: Three things teen girls should know: 1. Learn the sound of your inner voice. · Learn the difference between healthy and unhealthy self-talk. · Learn to tune out unhealthy self-talk. 2. Learn to see your identity through God's eyes. · Learn the difference between identities that come to us from this world and those that come to us from God. · Learn to tune in to who God has created you to be. 3. Learn to see yourself as an image-bearer of God. · Learn to detect where your self-image is coming from. · Learn that your value and worth come from God.

================================================== ==SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1================================================== == DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA MUJERES 2022“SIN MIEDOS NI CADENAS”Narrado por: Sirley DelgadilloDesde: Bucaramanga, ColombiaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church 22 DE OCTUBREDIOS SIGUE AQUI“Es por esto que me deleito en mis debilidades, y en los insultos, en privaciones, persecuciones y dificultades que sufro por Cristo. Pues, cuando soy débil, entonces soy fuerte” (2 Cor. 12:10, NTV).Siempre me intrigaron las historias detrás de las canciones. ¿Qué es lo que lleva a un cantautor a escribir sobre un tema determinado? Hace unos meses, tuve el privilegio de entrevistar a la cantante estadounidense JJ Heller. Las canciones de JJ -como la mayoría de la gente la llama-, tienen una belleza y vulnerabilidad impactantes. Aunque todas sus canciones me gustan (confieso que estaba bastante nerviosa durante la entrevista, porque soy fan de JJ), hubo una de las cuales hablamos más: “God is still here” (Dios sigue aquí). La letra de esta canción es una especie de lista de todo lo que puede salir mal en un día: ¿Y si me olvido la letra de una canción? ¿Y si a mi hija le da fiebre mientras estoy de gira? ¿Y si nunca encuentro la paz y no logro ser yo mismo? Muchas veces vivimos haciendo un catálogo mental de todas las catástrofes que podrían sucedernos, tal como en esta canción. Sin embargo, en el coro, JJ escribe: "¿Y si el mundo no se termina, aunque mis miedos se hagan realidad? ¿Qué tal si tenemos lo necesario para atravesar esto? Hay maná del cielo y bendiciones nuevas. ¿Qué tal si Dios sigue aquí, ¿aun en este desierto?”.Cuando le pregunté sobre esta canción, JJ me dijo que reflejaba la historia de su lucha contra la ansiedad. Muchas veces, en sus conciertos, JJ hace una pausa para hablar de su experiencia, porque cree que las personas que sufren de ansiedad y de ataques de pánico piensan que esto solo les sucede a ellas. Al compartir su historia y su proceso de sanidad, JJ les dice: “Tú no estás solo”. Pero su mensaje comunica también otra verdad importante: Dios puede usar tus debilidades para bendecir a otros. “Es justamente por mi experiencia con la ansiedad que me siento impulsada a escribir canciones suaves, como de cuna, porque las necesito para mi propia alma”, me dijo JJ “Si no fuera por mi ansiedad, estas canciones no existirían”.Son justamente estas espinas clavadas en la carne, las cosas que pensamos que nos inhabilitan para servir, las que Dios más usa. ¿Quién pensaría que una persona que sufre de ansiedad se transformaría en una cantante y daría conciertos frente a miles de personas? ¡Dios! Son nuestras debilidades las que nos mantienen absolutamente dependientes de la fuerza divina. Por esto, cuanto más débiles somos (en nosotras iguales), más fuertes somos (en la fortaleza de Dios).Señor, estoy entusiasmada por ver lo que harás con mis debilidades.
Worshiping God seven days a week, plus a firsthand look at helping Ukrainian refugees, and when a man feels insecure about being short.Featured musical artist: JJ Heller Roundtable: Worship as a LifestyleWorship is a meaningful and at times deeply emotional experience that connects us to God's heart. But it's meant to be much more than just a church service on the weekend. Our guests describe ways they've learned to connect with God during the routines of everyday life. Whether it's through listening to music, prayer, serving, or even working a 9-to-5 job, you'll see that worship is expressed in many ways.Culture: Lessons From Helping RefugeesThe Russia-Ukraine war has been a devastating reality this year. Many are asking, “What's the best way to offer help to those in need?” Psychiatrist Dr. Karl Benzio recently got to serve Ukrainian refugees in Warsaw, Poland. He'll share his inspiring story of how he and his daughter, an art therapist, provided mental health support to the refugees and pastors in that region. He'll also share ways we can pray for the people affected by this conflict.American Association of Christian CounselorsInbox: Short and Lacking Confidence He listened to a past segment titled “Height Hang-Up” and is wondering how to express genuine confidence in life and relationships, even though he's shorter than most guys. And how can he be both confident and humble? Josh Zeichik weighs in.
Welcome To The Neighborhood: A Mister Rogers Tribute Podcast
Welcome To The Neighborhood: A Mister Rogers Tribute Podcast on Twitter @MisterRogersSay As we again walk into this podcast neighborhood, we want you to know that no matter where you are from, you are welcome here. I'm glad to be your our neighbor. Every daughter, every son, every tribe, and every tongue, in the Spirit of Fred Rogers and the life of welcome that he lived, welcome to the neighborhood. It's been a little while since we had a visit to this podcast neighborhood, but I'm so glad to tell you that this week we have guests; singer-songwriter JJ Heller and her husband Dave Heller. In addition to making music together, they also hosted the podcast, INSTRUMENTAL with Dave and JJ Heller. JJ Heller Bio At some point in our lives, we all want someone to believe in us, to remind us there is beauty in the world, and to tell us that everything's going to be ok. THERE IS A CHILD IN ALL OF US, AND THAT'S WHO JJ HELLER MAKES MUSIC FOR. JJ writes thoughtful intimate songs that feel like balm for the soul. Her soothing voice and inspiring melodies blend with poignant lyrics to stir the hearts of listeners of all ages. In 2017 JJ began regularly releasing a new song on the first Friday of each month. It's a strategy that helped her grow from 800,000 to over 15 million streams per month. In addition to releasing monthly singles, Heller is busy working on her orchestral I DREAM OF YOU albums, I Dream of You: CALM, JOY, SLEEP, LOVE, and coming this November, I Dream of You: CHRISTMAS. Few musicians have the privilege to look back on 20 years of full-time music-making, but as far as JJ Heller is concerned, she's just getting started. JJ has released covers of Fred Rogers' music before, and her new single, Neighbor, is a song that I feel Fred Rogers would have strongly resonated with. JJ Heller's Web Site: jjheller.com

So many Worship Leaders are so concerned about being accused of “performing” and not actually leading worship. Questions like “are we doing it well?” and “how did we sound?'' come before the important question of “did we see lives changed?'' and “did people meet Jesus?” There's a tension that exists between the space of worship and the space of performance. Accusations of “that church just puts on a show” are prevalent within the western Church and our megachurches have spent lots of tithe money on creating a highly produced Sunday service. One might even say that the light show on Sunday helps keep the lights on the rest of the week. Elias Dummer knows a thing or two about this topic of worship versus performance. As a former successful CCM artist and lead singer of the band The City Harmonic and as a songwriter and Worship Leader for his local church, he has a unique perspective based on his years of experience. In this episode he addresses this issue by bringing us back to the basics of how we were created. Hopefully, through this episode, our tribe will be able to remove the fear of creating a performance culture and just focus on doing worship well and connecting the congregation with God. This podcast is brought to you by Authentic Media and Worship Leader Magazine. Our host is Joshua Swanson and the show's co-producer and editor is Matt McCartie. More episodes can be found here: https://worshipleader.com/all-podcasts/ Who is Elias Dummer ? Elias Dummer co-founded and fronted one of Canada's most acclaimed worship bands, The City Harmonic. As the group's principal songwriter, he helped pen such hits as “Holy (Wedding Day)” and “Mountaintop,” as well as “Manifesto,” which served as the theme song for 2011's National Day of Prayer. The City Harmonic earned 12 GMA Canada Covenant Awards and a Juno Award (Canada's GRAMMY® equivalent), before disbanding in 2017. Dummer released his solo debut, The Work Vol. I, in 2019 and was named Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the 2020 Covenant Awards. Both as a solo artist and with The City Harmonic, Dummer's music has garnered more than 100 million streams to date. His latest album, The Work Vol. II, released July 29 and features collaborations with such artists as Sandra McCracken; Citizens' Zach Bolen; JJ Heller; and Land of Color.
Elias Dummer doesn't pull punches when it comes to living out his faith. Best known for his work with The City Harmonic, his solo career has set him on a global trajectory with songs like "Expectation" charting in more than 30 countries. But as Elias tells Jess, he won't record music if he doesn't have something necessary to say. In his crowdfunded album "The Work Volume 2" Elias shows that he still contains multitudes – grappling with the Church's love of power, sex, money and politics. All up, asking us to reconsider what worship and justice truly look like. This is a conversation we need in 2022.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming But you don't have to feel overwhelmed! Here are some thoughts on what to do when life makes you say, "Are you kidding me? More?" I found an amazing list of scriptures, and I can't do a better job than this blogger named Haley Walker did in compiling them: Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28-29 I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint. Jeremiah 31:25 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.” Isaiah 40:29 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26 For who is God besides The Lord? And who is the Rock except our God? It is God who arms me with strength and keeps my way secure. Psalm 18:31-32 Yes, my soul, find rest in God, my hope comes from Him. Psalm 62:5 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10 The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Exodus 33:14 To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me. Colossians 1:29 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. Make level paths for your feet, so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed. Hebrews 12:12-13 In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8 You are my place of quiet retreat, I wait for Your Word to renew me. Psalm 119:114 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 2 Corinthians 4:16 Yes, brother, may I have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ. Philemon 1:20 Cast all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 But those who wait for The Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not grow faint. Isaiah 40:31 And let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. Galatians 6:9-10 The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16 Music by JJ Heller and David Crowder.

There is evil, sorrow, pain, and suffering. We live amid blessing and brokenness with an eye toward eternity. Wisdom comes from God. We gain wisdom by living in union with God.

More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
Today has not caught God off-guard. No matter the circumstance you find yourself in, He's already there, and He already knows what will happen next. JJ Heller's song, "You Already Know," reminds us of God's omniscience -- the attribute of God that means He is all-knowing. Join me in exploring this attribute of God in Scripture this week. In this week's episode, I discuss: Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture - this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include: Explore a topic Utilize outside resources Follow the cross-reference Consider the opposite Meditate on truth Pray Scripture How God knows everything - 1 John 3:20 How trusting man (or our own hearts) is not a good idea - Jeremiah 17:5-10 That God has never learned and cannot learn - Isaiah 40:13-14 How God's knowledge is unfathomably deep - Romans 11:33-36 Meditating on the depth of the knowledge of God AW Tozer's book, "Knowledge of the Holy" - Amazon Paid Link That God's deep and purposeful knowledge - Isaiah 46:8-11 The deeply personal nature of God's knowledge - Psalm 90:8 Our inability to "hide" from our all-knowing God - Psalm 139:7-12 God's steadfast love (despite knowing everything about us) - Isaiah 54:10 Jen Wilkin's book, "None Like Him" - Amazon Paid Link Praying for God to reveal and enlighten our hearts - Ephesians 1:16-21 More Than a Song Playlist Additional Resources Lyrics for "You Already Know" by JJ Heller - NewReleaseToday.com "You Already Know" by JJ Heller Behind the Song With Kevin Davis - New Release Today Article "What does it mean that God is omniscient?" - GotQuestions.org Weekly Challenge Meditate on God's omniscience this week — we've only scratched the surface.

As we try to think through shifts in our careers or moving forward on our ambitions, nothing will debilitate us faster than focusing on the roadblocks or distractions. Our human nature will draw us to see things that just aren't there, or to miss the important pieces altogether. That's why I asked my dear friend, Ginny Owens, to shed some light on what it looks like to listen to another voice. Blind since age three, Ginny's unique approach to music and books on darkness, life, and faith has a way of helping us see more clearly so we can find hope in the midst of suffering. Here's what she's learned: "You don't always get to choose your circumstances, but you do get to choose the story your life tells." A multiple award-winning and critically-acclaimed singer-songwriter, Ginny Owens became a household name when she was named the Gospel Music Association's “New Artist of the Year” in 2000. In a meaningful career that now encompasses nearly two decades of music – including 10 full-length recordings, three EPs, a popular Christmas album, number one radio singles, and numerous film and television placements – Ginny's heartbeat behind the music remains the same – to inspire others through sharing her own story in song. Born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi, a degenerative eye condition left Ginny completely blind by the tender age of three. As her vision diminished, her love of music and the piano expanded, and Ginny discovered songwriting as a window into her unseen world. The unique perspectives inspired by her vision impairment have resulted in inspirational lyrics paired with her diverse musicianship to afford her a space on an even more diverse set of stages, including the Sundance Film Festival, Lilith Fair and the White House, and recordings that transcend genre expectations. In November 2016, Owens launched the Love Be the Loudest campaign, an initiative in which a portion of album sales are donated to increasing the work of already thriving non-profit organizations. A 3-time Dove Award winner, Ginny's songs have also been recorded by popular artists like Michael W. Smith, JJ Heller and Rachael Lampa, and the sought-after songstress was commissioned to write the song, “Fly Away,” for the 2017 film, Trafficked – a song that found itself among the song selections considered for the Academy Awards ballot for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture earlier this year. Ginny is also an author, co-authoring Transcending Mysteries, published by HarperCollins in 2015, and the multi-faceted performer also hosts a popular video blog entitled, “How I See It,” in which Owens helps viewers understand the ins-and-outs of living day-to-day life as a blind person. For more information on Ginny, or her philanthropic work with Love Be the Loudest, visit: GinnyOwens.com and LoveBeTheLoudest.com. Ginny's new book, "Singing in the Dark: Finding Hope in the Songs of Scripture" is now available.

Episode 6: In this interview, songwriter and recording artist JJ Heller, shares her lifelong journey of wrestling with and overcoming anxiety and panic attacks. She speaks honestly about how she discovered her new voice and the process it took to turn her self perceived limitations into her greatest strength. Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast!
Nashville-based independent singer/songwriter JJ Heller released her 10th full-length studio album, I Dream of You (Volume II). The record is a compilation of 12 favorite cover songs from the 1950's through today, and three original songs produced to stir feelings of nostalgia for listeners of all ages. Heller's effortless voice combines with moving piano accompaniment, orchestral arrangements, a children's choir, and a 10-piece string section to create a truly unforgettable collection of songs elevating the definition of children's music to an entirely new level. When Heller released the first I Dream of You album in 2014, she had no idea how significantly it would shape her career. At the time, the mother of two small girls simply intended to create soothing love songs with messages of simple devotion from a parent to a child. After listeners began sharing stories of how the songs played in integral role in their family's bedtime routines, car rides, or hospital visits, Heller began donating the album to hospitals, adoption agencies, and families of young children. The album has since been donated to over 100,000 families. — Read stories from listeners at jjheller.com/stories In 2017 after Heller told her producer, Ben Shive, how I Dream of You had became one of her most-streamed albums, he suggested making a sequel. The idea had never occurred to her, but it was quickly embraced and acted on. Soon, with the support of 1,700 fans, Heller raised $80,000 through a Kickstarter campaign which allowed her to hire over 30 musicians, producers and engineers to help her turn the record from a dream into a reality. Kickstarter backers were given a chance to hear the album early as their reward for financially supporting the campaign, and after her first listen, backer Leeann Hadgis wrote: “I can't imagine a more perfect mix is songs. I feel transported by the music and whimsy. My children are older so this is an album for me… such an excellent way to start my weekend. I will be buying this for all my friends so they can, feel the same joy I feel, when listening. I am unable to choose one favorite since they all are magical.” Miles Davis once said “… sometimes it takes you a long time to sound like yourself.” With over 15 years experience as a full-time singer/songwriter, Heller has developed an iconic style of vocal performance. Her unmistakable voice and charming delivery shines from the opening track “It's Such A Good Feeling” by the much-loved television personality Fred Rogers (Mister Rogers' Neighborhood) to the closing original track “In The Morning.” Links for JJ Heller - https://www.jjheller.com/about/ https://www.instagram.com/jjhellermusic/?hl=en Connect with us on Mommispace!

Fifteen years into her marriage and her music career, JJ Heller opens up about how she has followed God throughout the ups and downs of the life of an independent musician. When she first started out in music, she believed that by not signing to a label she was choosing a life of obscurity. After some national exposure on the show So You Think You Can Dance, JJ's songs started getting air time on Christian radio stations and she has continued to connect with listeners, creating multiple albums with her husband Dave. She shares the background story of how she let go of her own dreams to play basketball in college and learned to follow after God's dreams for her and the music she now writes. As a musician who travels and now a mom of two, JJ doesn't have a strict morning routine. Instead, she focusing on allowing space for the Holy Spirit to direct her in how she needs to connect with God day by day. She shares how being aware of God's presence and checking her heart's intentions has given her a lot of grace in her busy season of motherhood and music.
