I had the privilege of meeting Fred Kaplan online through Soaking.Net. Fred is an young old bluesman from California (a walking encyclopedia on the blues) who shares his understanding and experience of God's heart for the broken through what he calls "vertical music" through his unique new album "TRIAGE" (solo piano).

You can find his music within our playlist, as well as on his website at www.fredkaplanmusic.com.

Christine Jeanville
Christine wrote me a few years ago, a passionate lover of God from France, and from a distance we have ministered together as she sometimes uses some of my music to speak out a dance. Where I cannot go, she carries some of these sounds with her to other countries. What a blessing! Here she improvises on a song where God encourages us not to give up...

Dancing "Don't Give Up"

For about a month now, we've been sharing two of author's Wayne Jacobsen's books he offers freely for the encouragement and edification of all who are on a serious journey with God, and may wrestle with various issues concerning God's love for them.

When you're hurting...


"When you are hurting, and you think about God's greatness, what a change it makes in your perspective when you remember this:

The great 'I AM' cares personally and deeply for you. He exists beyond the stars, yet He knows every hair that falls from your head and every tear that drops from your eyes. When you grieve, he is grieving with you.

When you are confused, He doesn't laugh at your confusion. He is with you right there, arms around you, ready to take you, if need be carry you, safely through the fog. He is Yaweh, the God who makes and keeps His covenants and promises."
[Steve Farrar - Get in the Ark]
