Get Lost...In Wonder



Recently our neighbors are constantly blaring Buddhist sutra chants, sounds that drift easily across the 30 feet between our apartment buildings. I can't say I like it. Nope.

You know what I love?

Lost In Wonder -- all songs written and recorded by our friend Noah of The Offshore Accounts, straight out of Changsha. (btw Noah's third daughter was born yesterday so we went to the hospital and held her, she's darling!)

I sang background vocals on "Watch for The Dawn"

Favorite track? "But You Do"


Dig Lost In Wonder?
Let me introduce you a little somethin' awesome called The Followers' Wounded Healer



My favorite EVER.

Just listen to the first track. You'll be hooked.


Well, did you listen to it? Did you hear that astounding soulful female voice? Her name is Liz Vice, and she's just released her first solo album, There's A Light. I've been playing it over and over to drown out the droning sutras. I feel much better.




All three albums

...offer an unbeatable throwback soul-blues-funk musical experience.

...offer thoughtful lyrics, avoiding typical cliches of worship tunes.

...are offered in humility, not to make oneself known, but to make Jesus known.


counting the graces
thank you Father for
truth
strength
finding Drew knelt down in prayer in the office
Twin Cities Walk to Defeat ALS was a big success
men of integrity in our lives
baby Shenghui
quality kidney beans
Monday morning books on the couch with Titus; helping Mike with his cinnamon problem
troubles look so insignificant with consideration to You
Stephen's testimony of daily joy in Chicago
sin is grievous but You will set all things right
