Voices of the Christian Music and Arts Scene
The Winn Agency
Jennifer and her husband may be ahead of the game a little bit when it comes to working together and traveling with a family. They were both living a busy traveling lifestyle when they met. However, every family that lives outside the box, as they do, has to learn how to respect each other, manage time, and schedule with the family’s best interest in mind.MORE......
Artist/Songwriter Cate Morris
I’ve heard the argument often, “If there is a God, why is there so much evil in the world?” It’s a question that comes from deep within the doubts and fears we all face as humans…is there really a God? MORE...

Making Cents
I think there are some very valid "Christian" bands out there, bands that need an income attached so that the people who work them can focus on them entirely. But I want to keep asking questions of how we can lose the gimmick. How we can purify our forms of industry and entertainment so that it's not just about profiting ourselves. How we as the Church can build bridges to the world around us instead of creating a self-sustaining module of Christian industry. Will you join me in asking these questions?

My Conversations with God
This life (if we allow it) although not always easy can be laid out in such a beautiful way. It teaches us so much. There is so much possibility for true growth. I love that about God, he speaks to us in so many ways. When we let him he also speaks through us.
Many of the songs I write come from so many different experiences. Floods of thought’s and ideas come from things that I have seen, said, felt or done.
So I hope that with this CD: Conversations With God that I have allowed him to do just that.
These are some of my personal conversations in song that I have had with God. He is teaching me about relationships. And of course what better example to learn from and apply to all my other relationships in life, than the one I have with him.
If nothing else I want people to get just how easy it is to talk with God, to build a true open relationship with him, and to know just how much he cares about us and loves us! We are each special to him. The fact that all of us can be his favorite I think is truly amazing! As the scripture says: “We are the apple of our Daddy’s eye!”

Green Music
In a sense, what we listen to reflects our beliefs. We can look at the history of music and see that is true. Most artists want to represent something, even if it is crazy like “Woodstock”.
The energy to be meaningful is going in a new direction for some bands who want to help the environment. Songs that make a statement are being composed to take awareness to another level. We are in the midst of musical change.
Artists are taking their environmental voice on stage and on tour as music festivals and concerts take on a shade of green. This trend has reached a broad spectrum of performers and festivals.Tell us how your band or group is going GREEN!
