"Be zealous."-Revelation 3:19
    
    If you would see souls converted, if you would hear the cry that "the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord"; if you would place crowns upon the head of the Saviour, and His throne lifted high, then be filled with zeal. For, under God, the way of the world's conversion must be by the zeal of the church. Every grace shall do exploits, but this shall be first; prudence, knowledge, patience, and courage will follow in their places, but zeal must lead the van. It is not the extent of your knowledge, though that is useful; it is not the extent of your talent, though that is not to be despised; it is your zeal that shall do great exploits. This zeal is the fruit of the Holy Spirit: it draws its vital force from the continued operations of the Holy Ghost in the soul. If our inner life dwindles, if our heart beats slowly before God, we shall not know zeal; but if all be strong and vigorous within, then we cannot but feel a loving anxiety to see the kingdom of Christ come, and His will done on earth, even as it is in heaven. A deep sense of gratitude will nourish Christian zeal. Looking to the hole of the pit whence we were digged, we find abundant reason why we should spend and be spent for God. And zeal is also stimulated by the thought of the eternal future. It looks with tearful eyes down to the flames of hell, and it cannot slumber: it looks up with anxious gaze to the glories of heaven, and it cannot but bestir itself. It feels that time is short compared with the work to be done, and therefore it devotes all that it has to the cause of its Lord. And it is ever strengthened by the remembrance of Christ's example. He was clothed with zeal as with a cloak. How swift the chariot-wheels of duty went with Him! He knew no loitering by the way. Let us prove that we are His disciples by manifesting the same spirit of zeal.

HEAR ME by Kyle Sherman with giveaway


Album Bio
Fort Worth-based singer-songwriter Kyle Sherman recently signed on as the flagship artist to brand new label RayLynn Records, an opportunity that presented itself during a time period when a record deal wasn't even on his radar. 

"It's crazy how God works," Kyle says. 'Five years ago, I pushed pretty hard to do my own thing as a singer-songwriter, but every well I approached would dry up. It clearly wasn't the right time." So Kyle continued on a path of leading worship, taking a full-time role as worship leader at Lifechurch.TV's Fort Worth campus under the leadership of renowned pastor/author Craig Groeschel.

Just 3-years later Kyle made it back to Nashville, pouring his heart into a microphone at Sony studio with veteran producer and country singer-songwriter Mark Collie making his first album. God is faithful. Hear Me, the result of those sessions, is an eclectic and authentic mix of rootsy, southern soul.





OK so I'm a day late.  I just received my hard copy on Saturday in the mail and didn't realize the posting date was so close..So now I'm crunching cause I just saw it was to be posted for view yesterday..YIKES

If you are into contemporary  Christian music then you make like Kyle Sherman and his new CD.  Those that love this flair of music should find a favorite in his songs that he has prepared on this CD.  The songs on the CD portray Kyle's heartfelt love for God.  There is a variety of music genre on this CD. Songs about Heaven, Jesus and God's power. Could be a good stocking stuffer if you are looking for some Christian contemporary music.  I must say first time I listened I wasn't into this CD, I'm not much on contemporary but as I stopped and really listened to the words of the songs they are very good.  I found myself saying those are nice words and thoughts.  I still like nice background music. I also don't like audio books and talk shows too much for my ears I guess.  I don't have time to stop and really think on songs just like the background easy stuff.  So if I stop and listen to the words I will say big hit.
