CD's for $6

I have some good news, and I'll get to it at the end of this post.

In my humble opinion (so, take it or leave it...) some of the best song writers serving the church right now are part of a ministry organization called Sovereign Grace Ministries.  Verses like Colossians 3:16 and Ephesians 5:19 indicate that concerning music in churches there should be a variety of musical expression, a teaching/admonishing aspect to it, a bent toward thankfulness, with the express end of encouraging the word of Christ to dwell in us richly.  Again, for what it is worth, I think the song writers of Sovereign Grace Ministries are so gifted and carry out the above task with excellence and humility.  Here are some of the songs they have written that we currently sing in our church:

Jesus, Thank You
Grace Unmeasured
Christ the Lord is Born Today
The Son of God Came Down
Isn't He Good
Receive the Glory
Heavenly Father, Beautiful Son

The above songs have helped me focus on the glories of Calvary and the substitutionary work of Christ on the cross, and I'm so thankful for them and the men and women who wrote them.  I hope and pray that God has used them in the same way in your life and walk with the Lord.

So, here's the good news.  Through the end of this month, Sovereign Grace Ministries is offering their cds for $6 each, with free shipping inside the US.  Our church has already ordered a ton of them, and we gave them to the choir and our praise band as gifts.  I can't recommend them highly enough.  Here are a few of my personal favorites:

Worship God Live (recorded live at a Worship God conference)
Valley of Vision (songs based on Puritan prayers found in The Valley of Vision)
Upward: The Bob Kauflin Hymns Project (arrangements of hymns by Bob Kauflin)
Savior (songs about the Incarnation)
Songs for the Cross Centered Life (based on readings from CJ Mahaney's Living The Cross Centered Life)
In A Little While (songs by father-son duo Mark and Stephen Altrogge)

Enjoy!
