Worldwide Seminarian Support and Catholic Answers Live!

I am very excited to be a small part of the fifteenth anniversary of Worldwide Seminarian Support. WWSS will be featured on a live broadcast of Catholic Answers Live with Jerry Usher this Friday, May 9, 2008 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Eastern time. In honor of this occasion I have put together an iMix of songs dealing with vocations. It is my prayer that these songs will inspire Catholics everywhere to support vocations or to consider a vocation themselves.

For more information you can visit Catholic Answers Live online; and, as always, for more great Catholic music visit Top Catholic Songs

Fire at Little Portion Hermitage

By now many of you have heard of the terrible fire that burned much of the common areas of the Little Portion Hermitage in Arkansas. Personally, I felt a deep sadness as the loss the community there has suffered. As a musician and a Christian John Michael Talbot has been a real inspiration for me. His spirituality and his music have provided me with much comfort as I have faced challenges on my own journey.

At times like this I ask myself, "What I can do?" First of all, I know that I can pray for the community. Prayer is certainly an important part of dealing with adversity. I know that I can also give thanks because this fire did not result in any loss of life. Buildings can be rebuilt and possessions can be replaced. God did protect his children from physical harm in this instance.

However, since I do not possess large financial resources I am trying to do something small to give back to a person and a community who has given much to me. I have selected some of my favorite John Michael Talbot songs and compiled them to an iMix available through iTunes. These songs are ones that have supported and sustained my spirit over the years. I hope that many will choose to listen and download this music in an effort to support John Michael and the Brothers and Sisters of Charity.

Thank You!

A big thanks to everyone who logged on a voted for "Shine Out." The voting at Top Catholic Songs is now over for the the Top Ten Holy Spirit Songs of 2008. "Shine Out" was selected as the #6 song for this list. More to come later when the official list is published.

Again, thanks for your support!
