Prior to embarking on her solo career, Lindsay Huggins once worked with Reba McEntire. And from listening to this brand new record "Then Jesus Came," it sounds like Lindsay's time with the country music diva was not fruitless.

Revive Worship “King of Glory (The Psalms)” Album Review

More important than style, hooks, riffs, and sound is the content of worship songs. Too often worship music gets flushed down as sanctified love songs where God is just the interchangeable "he." And our relationship with God is often portrayed as narcissistic or humanistic. Somehow transcendence is sacrificed on the altar of relevancy. This isn't the case with Revive Worship

** Classic Christian Album ** Darlene Zschech "You Are Love" Album Review

It is not unusual for worship leaders to step aside from their usual roles and record solo studio projects.

Reba McEntire “Love Somebody” Album Review

Reba McEntire has two strikes against her. First, in a genre where looks and youth are prized commodities, McEntire has a tough battle with her peers who are in the raging 20s. Second, McEntire is not a man. Save for Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert, country music is now almost exclusively cluttered with an all men fraternity

NEEDTOBREATHE “Live from the Woods” Album Review

NEEDTOBREATHE's brand new live album is a bonfire party surrounded by 5,000 adoring fans. Such is the most apt and apropos synopsis of what "Live from the Words" is all about.

Lauren Daigle "How Can It Be" Album Review

Lauren Daigle is the success story of 2014.
