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.            For further information or to request an interview with Kenny & Claire:  Brian Smith  •  brian@turningpointpr.com Emily Kohl  •  emily@turningpointpr.com   ----more---- Contact Rick Lee James Email: Rick@RickLeeJames.com Get the new song - Whatever You Do Up on the Mountain Also, Don't forget to swing by Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or your favorite streaming platform and hit those follow buttons!

Sharing: Neville Garland, Neil Dawson and Carolyn Dawson. By Faith by Keith and Kristyn Getty and Stuart Townend is a heartwarming song that encourages us to live in a way that stands out. It reminds us that God invites us on this incredible journey of faith, where we trust in Him even when we can't see the whole picture. The song beautifully conveys that we're called to live by faith, looking beyond what's right in front of us and believing in God's promises for our future. What makes this song even more special is its emphasis on ​“we” instead of ​“I.” It reminds us that we're not alone; we're part of a community of believers who support each other. It's a collective journey where we walk together, empowered by the Holy Spirit who gives us strength and guidance. ​“By Faith” inspires us to embrace this journey, encouraging us to look beyond our current circumstances and trust in the amazing things God has planned for us. Later, Carolyn Dawson shares a song that's helped her through challenging times in her life: Cornerstone. Episode link: https://grace-community.church/lesson/by-faith

"Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers." English hymnwriter Stuart Townend penned that line almost thirty years ago in the modern classic How Deep the Father's Love For Us. It puts us in the shoes of mockers and scoffers as Jesus walks to his death. And it's a hymn of praise! It's not meant to crush us, but to lift us into joy - as we consider how God transforms both the humiliated and the mockers. Our society features heavy doses of both, but soul-stirring joy is rarely a part of it. If God can so transform Jesus' ultimate walk of shame, how might He do that in our lives now?

Cuando se habla de algo como "apocalíptico", tiene poco que ver con lo que la Biblia llama Revelación o Apocalipsis. Sugiere ruina y destrucción, algo que produce auténtico terror. El mensaje de Jesús en el Evangelio, sin embargo, es que cuando confiamos en Él, no debemos temer el final... ¡Él viene para salvarnos! Al principio de este capítulo 21, Lucas contrasta el orgullo y la hipocresía de la religión de los ricos y poderosos, con el ejemplo de generosidad que la gracia produce en una pobre viuda (vv. 1-4). El compositor británico con el matrimonio de los Getty en Irlanda del Norte, de algunos de los cánticos de alabanza con mayor profundidad doctrinal como "Sólo en Cristo", Stuart Townend, tiene una modesta obra en solitaria, más cercana al folk y la música celta. En "Vida sencilla" (Simple Living 2011) pone música a este episodio del Evangelio con la voz de Kate Rusby. El anuncio de Jesús de la destrucción del Jerusalén (vv. 7-24) inspira al veterano cantante de "country" y actor Randy Travis. Tras una juventud salvaje se vuelve al "gospel" en los últimos años con temas como este "Llanto de Jerusalén" (Jerusalem´s Cry 2002). El Templo será destruido (vv- 5-6), pero Dios levanta con Cristo Jesús, una "Iglesia no hecha de manos" (Church Not Made With Hands 1984), como canta Mike Scott de los escoceses Waterboys en su segundo álbum, "Un lugar pagano" (A Pagan Place). El disco toma el título de una novela de la irlandesa Edna O´Brien, después de las claras declaraciones de fe de su primer álbum, como "Diciembre" (December 1983). Si hay un película del género de catástrofes que ahora llaman "apocalíptico" con título bíblico, esa es "Armageddon" (1998). El graduado de la Universidad Wesleyana, Michael Bay plantea la amenaza de una "señal del cielo" como las que habla Jesús (v. 11), un enorme asteroide que amenaza destruir el planeta Tierra. Escuchamos algunas escenas dobladas del principio de la película, que José de Segovia comenta con las bandas sonoras de Trevor Rubin y otra película del principal colaborador de Bay, el productor de origen judío alemán, Jerry Bruckheimer, "Top Gun Maverick" por Harold Faltermeyer. La profecía de la destrucción de Jerusalén en el año 70 d.C. está unida aquí al anuncio de la llegada del Juicio con la segunda venida de Cristo como el Hijo del Hombre (vv. 25-38). Señales como estas apuntan al fin, pero no llega todavía con ellas. El regreso de Jesús es inminente en el sentido de que puede ocurrir en cualquier momento, pero no sabemos cuándo. Debemos mantenernos despiertos y vigilantes (v. 36), pero no tener miedo, porque Dios está al control y nos trae en Cristo, la liberación. El músico británico Norman Barratt (1949-2011) de la banda de "rock progresivo" Gravy Train vivió una conversión dramática al cristianismo en los 70, que le llevó después de formar parte de la banda de Alwyn Wall a crear su propio grupo en 1980. Esta "Voz en la noche" (A Voice In The Night 1981) tiene el aire "sinfónico" y la dramática voz del mejor Barratt. Habla del "Hombre en la Cruz", cuyo Reino traerá la caída de cualquier otro poder. Sus estructuras pueden parecer impresionantes y que durarán para siempre, pero son como las ruinas de civilizaciones antiguas. Sueñan con la inmortalidad, pero como el imperio babilónico, azteca, romano o estadounidense, tienen los días contados. "El Mesías tomará el poder a la fuerza", canta Larry Norman en uno de sus temas más "políticamente incorrectos" al final de su vida, "Messiah". La escuchamos esta vez en una versión en vivo en Noruega en 1991.

Cuando uno tiene demasiada familiaridad con alguien, se dice a veces que la confianza da asco. Viene cuando uno está tan acostumbrado a tratar con alguien, que ya no le da importancia. Eso es lo que le pasa a las personas religiosas de las que habla Jesús en el capítulo 14 de la Buena Noticia según Lucas. No valoran su invitación y se quedan fuera de la fiesta. Isto es el nombre con el que se presenta un músico de Siracusa (Nueva York) llamado Christopher White, que hace una versión acústica de nuestra sintonía, Ruta 66, acompañado sólo con su guitarra. "Aqualung" es uno de esos álbumes conceptuales de los 70, que hizo famoso a un curioso grupo británico conocido como Jethro Tull. La inconfundible flauta y extraordinaria voz de Ian Anderson busca mostrar "la distinción entre la religión y Dios", dijo. Stuart Townend es un autor de música de alabanza que se ha hecho famoso por las composiciones que hizo con un matrimonio irlandés, que vive entre Nashville y Belfast, los Getty, que se conocieron por el tío de ella, John Lennox. Hacen canciones de mucho contenido doctrinal como "Sólo en Jesús". Escuchamos un tema de Townend, solo, "Vagabundos" (2011), inspirado en este pasaje. Lo oímos en su propia voz, que suena algo menos edulcorada que la de los Getty y con un aire "folk" más celta y agreste. El Ejército de Salvación es un movimiento evangélico nacido en 1865 con un pastor metodista llamado William Booth. Estableció con su mujer una misión de organización militar para predicar el Evangelio y ayudar al necesitado en el peor barrio de Londres, Whitechapel, conocido por los crímenes del Destripador. Sus oficiales, tanto hombres como mujeres, marchan con uniformes por las calles, para anunciar la Buena Noticia a la puerta de tabernas y burdeles, acompañando los himnos evangélicos con musica de banda. El cantautor judío neoyorquino Paul Simon pasó una larga temporada en una misión cristiana de Londres, antes de ser conocido por su duo con Art Garfunkel. Allí compusó algunas de sus más famosas canciones para un programa religioso de la BBC, se familiarizó con el Evangelio y el sonido del Ejército de Salvación, al que hace referencia en su canción "Hazy Shade of Winter" (La sombra nebulosa del invierno). La escuchamos en la popular versión de las Bangles en 1987, que apareció en la película "Less Than Zero" y la serie "Stranger Things". La "Mayor Barbara" es una obra que hizo George Bernard Shaw a principios del siglo pasado sobre la heredera de una rica familia inglesa que entra en el Ejército de Salvación para llevar a los pobres la esperanza cristiana. La historia ha inspirado vagamente musicales como "Ellos y ellas" (1955) con Sinatra, Brando compitiendo por seducir a Jean Simmons, pero preferimos la versión más fiel de 1941 con un joven Rex Harrison y la ya olvidada Wendy Hiller con David Lean como ayudante de dirección y montaje de Gabriel Pascal. Escuchamos algunas escenas de la versión doblada, comentadas por José de Segovia con el fondo de bandas salvacionistas de Pendleton y Enfield. Nuestra canción preferida sobre el Ejercito de Salvación no tiene el aire de marcha militar de sus himnos, sino la entrañable voz de Cliff Richard. Lleva el nombre femenino con el que familiarmente son conocidos en Inglaterra, "Sally Army". Está en su disco de 1977, "Small Corners" (Pequeñas esquinas). Nuestra última canción es también uno de nuestros "gospel" favoritos, muy apropiado además para lo que Jesús nos enseña en esta parábola. Su título es "At The Table" (En la mesa) y está interpretado por uno de los grandes músicos afroamericanos desde finales de los 70, Richard Smallwood. La versión que más nos gusta es una de las que hizo en vivo en Detroit en 1999. Su festivo sonido es de una alegría contagiosa. El rítmo del coro se te pega como una lapa, que no se te va de la cabeza. Es una celebración de un Dios tam prodigo en su generosidad, que nos asombra con Su maravillosa Gracia.

Om stil van te worden. Deze keer staat Opwekking 717 'Stil, mijn ziel wees stil' in het zonnetje. Een prachtig lied van Keith & Kristyn Getty in samenwerking met Stuart Townend. Opwekking-zangeres Talitha Nawijn is nog steeds onder de indruk van dit geliefde luister- en samenzanglied. Ze neemt ons mee naar de diepere lagen ervan... De Nederlandse tekst werd geschreven door voorganger en tekstdichter Harold ten Cate. Hoe lukt het ons om het advies uit dit lied in praktijk te brengen...? Matanja staat bij het graf van haar vader en wordt emotioneel als ze terugdenkt aan hoe haar dochter 'Stil, mijn ziel wees stil' zong op de begrafenis van opa... Word bemoedigd door het verhaal achter dit pareltje...

Keith Getty talks about composing hymns for worship in the church. Keith and wife Kristyn Getty are known as modern hymn-writers. Keith Getty and Stuart Townend co-wrote the song "In Christ Alone". It was actually the first song that they wrote together.

Concert Friday(Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows)MUSIC"In Christ Along"In Christ Alone (My Hope Is Found)Written & Composed by: Stuart Townend & Keith Getty  In Christ alone my hope is found,He is my light, my strength, my song;This Cornerstone, this solid Ground,Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.What heights of love, what depths of peace,When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!My Comforter, my All in All,Here in the love of Christ I stand. In Christ alone! – who took on flesh,Fullness of God in helpless babe.This gift of love and righteousness,Scorned by the ones He came to save:Till on that cross as Jesus died,The wrath of God was satisfied –For every sin on Him was laid;Here in the death of Christ I live. There in the ground His body lay,Light of the world by darkness slain:Then bursting forth in glorious dayUp from the grave He rose again!And as He stands in victorySin's curse has lost its grip on me,For I am His and He is mine –Bought with the precious blood of Christ. No guilt in life, no fear in death,This is the power of Christ in me;From life's first cry to final breath,Jesus commands my destiny.No power of hell, no scheme of man,Can ever pluck me from His hand:Till He returns or calls me home,Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.Copyright © 2001  

Brenton Brown is a smart and capable person. Awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to study politics and philosophy at Oxford University, he would have every reason to believe himself strong enough to conquer every obstacle in life. But in 2003, both he and his wife were diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. A debilitating condition, this also led him to co-write the well known praise song: Everlasting God. Brenton has worked with just about every big name in Christian music, including the Gettys, Big Daddy Weave, Stuart Townend, Chris Tomlin, and more. He was a high achieving person who's future was stifled by illness. And yet, for a man struggling through chronic fatigue, Scriptures describing an everlasting God who will not become faint or grow weary were exactly what he needed to get through the day. It turns out, we all need this everlasting God. In this episode of the Great Stories Podcast (originally recorded in 2013), you'll hear more of the story behind this song, as well as a conversation concerning the worship wars within the church. 

Opening Song: How Deep the Father's Love for Us (https://open.spotify.com/track/5yxV7E3ezJA6rF4ICYYSZV?si=096f286902614408) by Stuart Townend, sung here by Anna Golden Lyrics: How deep the Father's love for us How vast beyond all measure That He should give His only Son To make a wretch His treasure How great the pain of searing loss The Father turns His face away As wounds which mar the Chosen One Bring many sons to glory Behold the Man upon a cross My sin upon His shoulders Ashamed I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers It was my sin that held Him there Until it was accomplished His dying breath has brought me life I know that it is finished I will not boast in anything No gifts no pow'r no wisdom But I will boast in Jesus Christ His death and resurrection Why should I gain from His reward I cannot give an answer But this I know with all my heart His wounds have paid my ransom Passage: Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father'? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. 12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. 13 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me[a] anything in my name, I will do it. Musical Reflection: “Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us,” tune by William Bradbury Reflection Notes: The tune BRADBURY is named for its composer, a New Englander from the first half of the nineteenth century. The sweet melody for the verses repeats, then is followed by a strong refrain. Prayer: Breathe in me, Holy Spirit, that I may think what is holy. Move me, Holy Spirit, that I may do what is holy. Attract me, Holy Spirit, that I may love what is holy. Strengthen me, Holy Spirit, that I may guard what is holy. Guard me, Holy Spirit, that I may keep what is holy. -Augustine

We've said that our best episodes are ones in which we disagree. This is one of those. Today we're looking at the ancient hymn "Be Thou My Vision," which asks God to be many things to the Christian. We make sure to include the oft-dropped "battle shield" verse. Colin emphasizes the necessity to include explicit reference to soteriological themes in music while Tyler investigates the variety offered by grammatical mood. Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart; Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art. Thou my best Thought, by day or by night, Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word; I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord; Thou my great Father, I Thy true son; Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one/ Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight; Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight; Thou my soul's Shelter, Thou my high Tow'r: Raise Thou me heav'nward, O Pow'r of my pow'r. Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise, Thou mine Inheritance, now and always: Thou and Thou only, first in my heart, High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art. High King of Heaven, my victory won, May I reach Heaven's joys, O bright Heav'n's Sun! Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

When during the year should we sing about the incarnation? Should we refer to Christ as the Church's "lover"? Colin and Tyler, along with guest host Daniel J.

This week we continue our series on the Five Marks of Mission, as we think about the second mark, which can be summarised as "Teach". The reading is from Luke 5:1 - 11 and we are thinking about the importance of following Jesus, learning from him, as well as nurturing and encouraging the faith of those around us. The worship song is based on Psalm 23 - "The Lord's My Shepherd" by Stuart Townend. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/stephen-ogston/message

Opening Song: How Deep the Father's Love for Us (https://open.spotify.com/track/5yxV7E3ezJA6rF4ICYYSZV?si=c70a7202ddfa460e) by Stuart Townend, sung here by Anna Golden Lyrics: How deep the Father's love for us How vast beyond all measure That He should give His only Son To make a wretch His treasure How great the pain of searing loss The Father turns His face away As wounds which mar the Chosen One Bring many sons to glory Behold the Man upon a cross My sin upon His shoulders Ashamed I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers It was my sin that held Him there Until it was accomplished His dying breath has brought me life I know that it is finished I will not boast in anything No gifts no pow'r no wisdom But I will boast in Jesus Christ His death and resurrection Why should I gain from His reward I cannot give an answer But this I know with all my heart His wounds have paid my ransom Passage: 20 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, 21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, 23 I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. 24 Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. 26 I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.” (John 17:20–26 ESV) Musical Reflection: Jesus Loves Me by William B. Bradbury Reflection Notes: This sweet and familiar song was written in 1861 for the composer's church school and has become a favorite because of the warm reminders associated with its text: “Jesus loves me, this I know.” Prayer: O God, the King of glory, you have exalted your only Son Jesus Christ with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven: Do not leave us comfortless, but send us your Holy Spirit to strengthen us, and exalt us to that place where our Savior Christ has gone before; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.

Hymns seem old fashioned to many in the modern church. So how in the world did a “modern hymn” become one of the most popular songs sung in churches around the world?  20 years after Keith Getty and Stuart Townend wrote “In Christ Alone,” the song has not diminished in popularity. From Lauren Daigle to Shane & Shane, it's also been covered by many leading Christian musicians at work today. But how did it come about? And what does it mean to the two people who first brought it to a global audience?  On today's episode, Charles Morris returns to a conversation he had with Keith and Kristyn Getty at the 10th anniversary of “In Christ Alone.” Sitting at a piano in an empty church, they discuss topics ranging from music and worship to parenting and what it takes to live the Christian life. They also discuss the release of their album “Hymns for the Christian Life,” which we still have available for your gift to Haven Ministries at haventoday.org.

Voices In My Head Podcast Episode 335: Simple Hymns - Songs of RedemptionOn August 30th, Venture3Media (V3M) launched its Simple Hymns series with the release of the album Simple Hymns: Songs of Redemption.The project features such well-known worship leaders as Pat Barrett (Housefires), Chris McClarney (Jesus Culture), Leigh Nash (Sixpence None the Richer), Dan Koch, Anthony Skinner, Aaron Keyes and more.This 10-hymn album is available at iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Google Play and more digital and streaming outlets globally.Here today to talk to us more about the Simple Hymns series is Steve Nicolle, President and CEO of Venture3 MediaThe first of several new recordings in the Simple Hymns series to release over the next year, Songs of Redemption combines classic Hymns with a fresh interpretation, some with additional lyrics, as well as new songs that have been written and recorded in a hymn-like style and focusing on the Majesty and Greatness of God. “Simple Hymns is a response to those that long for a return to a richer and more lyric focused worship expression, combined with a simplicity of musical instrumentation,” shares Venture3Media president and founder Steve Nicolle. “Worship music shifts in style from decade to decade, along with shifts in lyrical themes and focus. What makes the hymns so unique and special is their ability to stand the test of time. When times become more turbulent or uncertain, we tend to hold to things that have endured. Hymns give us that anchor, and remind us that God's love and His nature are unchanging." Some of the classic hymns in this first Simple Hymns installment include songs written by Fanny Crosby, Charles Wesley and John Newton, with Newton's “Amazing Grace” receiving additional lyrics written by Chris Tomlin and Louie Giglio. This song, “Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone),” was newly recorded by Barrett.Other featured tracks include “Like A Wideness Of The Sea” written and performed by Skinner, “Psalm 62” written by Keyes and Stuart Townend and performed by Keyes, “Blessed Redeemer” sung by Nash and written by Crosby with modern interpretation by McClarney, Chris Eaton and John Hartley, and “All To Jesus (I Surrender)” written by JW Van Deventer with a fresh interpretation by Paul Oakley and performed by Brady Toops and Michal Mitha. Along with the new music, compelling acoustic videos of all the songs being sung by the artists were recorded and are featured on a companion Simple Hymns: Songs of Redemption Digital Deluxe Apple/iTunes exclusive version of the album. “These hymns and videos are purposefully simple with acoustic instrumentation, nothing overproduced to allow them to be sung by worship leaders in the most unplugged setting, or added to the worship music song selections in any sized church,” says Nicolle. “These Simple Hymns are also well suited as a background for personal worship, reflection and devotions.” Future Simple Hymns releases that are already being developed will feature hymns set around communion, worship, praise, Christmas, Easter and more. The full Simple Hymns: Songs of Redemption track listing follows: All To Jesus (I Surrender) Brady Toops and Michal MithaBlessed Redeemer Leigh NashJesus, We Look To Thee Savannah EllisLike A Wideness Of The Sea Anthony SkinnerAmazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) Pat BarrettThis I Know (There Is A Fountain) Katie Gustafson and Chris WeninegarI Know That My Redeemer Lives Dan KochPsalm 62 Aaron KeyesHow I Love Jesus (There Is A Name) Chris Weninegar and Katie GustafsonYes, I'll Sing Lynsey Berry For all the latest Simple Hymns news, visit www.simplehymns.com, Facebook, Twitter, Instagramand YouTube.  As always, thank you for listening to Voices In My Head.  About Your Host: Rick Lee JamesOfficial Web Site: www.RickLeeJames.comGet Rick Lee James Latest Album: https://fanlink.to/RLJThunderFor Booking Inquiries  Click Hereor contact Gary StriplingBy Phone: 904.745.9151By Email: gary@themanagementagency.comManagement General Office Hours:Monday – 11Am – 5PMTuesday – 11Am – 5PMWednesday – Office closedThursday – 11Am – 5PMFriday – 11AM – 5PMSaturday – 11AM – 5PM This is a public episode.

Voices In My Head Podcast Episode 323: Keith Getty and Sing! 2019My guest this week on Voices In My Head is Keith Getty. Keith and his wife Kristyn Getty occupy a unique space in the world of music today as preeminent modern hymn writers. In re-inventing the traditional hymn form, they have created a catalogue of songs teaching Christian doctrine and crossing the genres of traditional, classical, folk and contemporary composition which are sung the world over.“In Christ Alone” (penned by Keith and long-time writing partner, Stuart Townend) holds the #1 position of most-frequently-sung hymn in UK churches for the past 9 consecutive years. It was voted the #2 best-loved hymn of all time in the UK according to a BBC Songs of Praise national survey and among the top 5 hymns of all time by the UK Hymns Society. According to CCLI, it is estimated that 40 to 50 million people sing “In Christ Alone” in church services each year.The Gettys' hymns are used both in contemporary and traditional circles, being included in most modern hymnbooks (with a number of these now listing “Getty” as the most-featured composers), while in the more contemporary church, more than 60 of their songs are featured on top 2,000 CCLI charts between the UK and USA.The Gettys also created Sing! Concerts, Events and Conferences which exist to inspire deep theology, timeless artistry and vibrant singing for the whole family of God in cities across the world.There is more a lot I could say about the art, artistry, and more importantly the ministry of Keith Getty, but I would rather let him speak for himself.

The Lord will give the Israelites favor in the eyes of the Egyptians and they will be relieved to see them go.
