CD review and a giveaway!


I was recently given the opportunity to review a CD that is being released on the 26th of this month. The artist is Robert Pierre and you can learn more about him at his website.
One thing that I found surprising is that he is only 18 years old and he worked on recording this album during his senior year in high school. He also stays busy leading the worship time at his 800 member church in Orlando, Florida.
This is what he says about this album:
"All of the songs have something to do with things I was going through my senior year, preparing to say good bye to friends and not really knowing what would come next, but finding comfort and peace in the Lord's plan for my life. The Bible talks about how the eyes of the Lord are searching to and fro throughout the earth, searching for someone whose heart is wholly His. This CD is me saying, 'I'm all in'".
I have really been enjoying this CD. I've had it in my car and have been listening to it non-stop. You know how when you get a CD, there is usually one song you really like and the rest are just ok? I can honestly say that I like all the songs on the album. I was listening and trying to pick a favorite and I had a hard time. I did come up with one though. It's the second song and it's titled "Who R U?" In it he talks about choosing who you will be, and if you are going to be hot or cold for Christ.
You can listen to a sample of the songs on the album here.
And now for the giveaway! I've been given the chance to give this album to one of my readers. All you have to do is leave a comment here to be entered. Next week I'll draw a winner and I'll post it Wednesday evening.

We listen to CDs in the car. I can't remember when we listened to any of them in the house.

Hi Mari,
I have thought about you these past days...

Thanks for sharing about this CD. The verse you mentioned, that God is looking to and fro for those whose hearts are wholly his, that's one of my favorite verses.

Hope my name gets picked! Just in case please know that I have a US address.

Blessings on your week...

Love
Lidj
