    It has been a while since I've written about Country music. I want to keep reminding you that the volume of Christian Country music is steadily increasing, and the quality is there!

    Take, for instance, this new product from Terri Lynn. The only way that I can describe it is music from the soul. The lyrical content is really without peer-and I listen to a lot of vocals! This is a rare glimpse within the world of a very devoted wife, mother, singer, and Christian.

    The music isn't bad either. The "Oklahoma Front Porch Band" launches the listener off on a tour of, well, probably somewhere down South, where the livin' is easy, and the Spirit still moves! Lynn's acoustic wonders are coupled with a pretty darn good band making both the fast and the slow songs a pleasure to keep listening to over and over...

    But what really gets a listener on this album is Lynn's voice. WHAT A VOICE! She can sing like very few that I have ever heard. Some songs like "He's the one on the White Horse" and "Mama Prays" are worth playing over and over simply to hear Terri sing. The vocals are pure, sweet, and blessed.

    If you ever find yourself either missing the South or wanting to visit the South to hear some down-home country tunes, both fast and slow, with the purpose of giving God glory, go and add this disc to your collection-you will not be sorry!
