For now, I'm going to giveaway something that you can't get anywhere.....right now.
Just to be clear, I can't get it right now either. But, tomorrow, we ALL can get it.
Tomorrow, Casting Crowns is releasing their new CD, Come to the Well. I don't need to listen to it to know I'll love it. However, over the last few weeks they have made previews of the songs available to listen to on their website, and I was blown away.
First of all, they rerecorded one of my all time favorite songs, Listen to Our Hearts, and are offering it as part of the CD if you preorder on iT*unes. (You can bet I pre-ordered it.....I would have anyway, but that was a sweetener for sure!)
Secondly, there is a song on the CD called So Far to Find You that so perfectly describes what I have learned on this adoption journey- in a way that only another adoptive parent can fully understand. I started crying the first time I heard it. I'd try to describe it to you, but my friend Tara already did a great job in her own post. All I have to say after that is, AMEN!
All of Casting Crowns CDs are excellent. I enjoy the music, but better than that, it encourages and challenges me in my walk with Christ. I can already tell this new CD will be no different. I can hardly wait till tomorrow.
Casting Crowns songs were also very much a part of our adoption story. God used several of their songs- particularly Voice of Truth, Somewhere in the Middle, and The Altar and the Door- to speak to my heart at times in the journey when I was fearful, scared, and in need of a boost for my faith.
Anyway, I'd like to share the joy and encouragement- and Casting Crowns' new CD, Come to the Well! This is going to be a short giveaway entry window- just over 24 hours. If you would like your very OWN copy of Casting Crowns CD, just leave a message here telling me what you just love listening to these days.
Make sure you leave your message before midnight EST tomorrow (Tuesday, October 18th). I'll pick a winner Wednesday morning!
But, me? I've preordered the CD on iTu*nes, so I'll be listening to Come to the Well on my way to the office in the morning! I'm exceedingly thankful that new CDs are released on Tuesdays which also just so happens to be one of only two days a week that I am in the car alone for 20 minutes (40 minutes if you count the drive home)!
It's the little things! :)

Recently I have been listening to Christian radio. Well, not recently, it has been a stable for a few years. But recently when I turn on the radio there is a song the ministers to me right at that particular moment. Amazing how God does that again and again- like the song was played just for me.

Steven Curtis Chapman's new CD.
Don't pick me :) lol - not that I wouldn't lovethe CD (& will be on iTunes in the morning!!!) but I already scored from the Year of Giveaways!!
I am really loving Matthew West's, "Strong Enough" - really :)
I've reverted back to an old fave ever since Andrew and I had our big date to the David Crowder concert. These days it's the DCB "A Collision" CD that I'm blaring. :)
And thanks for the shout out! ;)
I HAVE to hear the song you are talking about!
Lately, I've had Pandora set to a David Crowder Band station and have so loved hearing the songs that cycle through -- I'm loving Oh How He Loves Us...can't get it out of my head. So glad I can't.
Lately I love listening to Selah, I especially love how they sing Before the Throne.

I love listening to Luke sing Jesus loves me. It is my absolute favorite.
Matt Hammitt's new CD called Every Falling Tear. He wrote most of the songs while his wife was pregnant with their son Bowen who has a very severe heart defect. The whole album is amazing!
I LOVE my Matt Maher CD these days-so many on there just speak to my heart. But I can't wait for the new Casting Crowns release from what Tara posted--what a sweet deal if I could score one here! ;-)
And the band is speaking notess of adoption? Hmmm, they're my husband's fav band ... maybe they'll speak to his heart? Always hoping.
Thanks for the giveaway. Win or not, it's always FUN!
