White Wine in the Sun

White Wine in the Sun by Tim Minchin is one of my new favorite Christmas songs.  It might seem strange considering he’s an atheist, but an atheist who gets “it” and knows it’s all about love.  But the tune, melody… Continue Reading →

I Am Light

A Reflection on: "I Am Light." A beautiful song to help you remember who you truly are. You and I suffer from spiritual amnesia! We have forgotten who we are, why we are here and how to li...

Life is a Church?!

Life is a church. I don’t know exactly what it is about this song, but it captures my heart and soul. Give it a listen and let me know if it touches your heart. Maybe it’s because I’ve always loved… Continue Reading →
