This Album Might Be a Defining Moment. by Greg Hays/Girder Music
I just finished listening to the songs on this album, and calling it an “album” almost feels inadequate. And feel like I'm selling it short. This is something more. It’s not just poetry, though the words are rich and intentional. It’s not just theatrical, though every performance feels alive. It’s a complete body of work that was clearly meant to be together — every song flowing into the next with purpose, like chapters in a story written by someone who knew exactly what they were doing.
But it goes even deeper than that. This isn’t just music — it’s ministry. It’s passion. It’s truth set to melody. You can feel the presence of God in the lyrics, in the arrangements, in the way the songs unfold. It’s as if the Spirit of the Lord guided every note. There’s something divine in the design — a completeness, a sense that this was never meant to be just entertainment.
Yes, it rocks. The guitars, the energy, the production — all of it stands tall. But when it’s over, what lingers isn’t just the sound. It’s the feeling. That deep, quiet fulfillment that only comes when something truly connects with your soul. Like sharing a meal that nourishes more than your body — and then handing the leftovers to someone who’s been hungry for days. That moment of gratitude, grace, and presence — that’s what this album leaves you with.
In today’s world of singles and streaming, where songs are often written to grab attention in three and a half minutes, this album reminds us what true artistry looks like. It’s complete. It’s cohesive. It tells a story from beginning to end.
This isn’t just another release by one of the great vocalist of our day. This could very well be a defining moment in Christian rock — a reminder that when music is surrendered to God, it becomes something eternal.
