A very good family friend of ours, Richard W. Johnson, has just released a real CD!!! It’s called Pray and he wrote every single song. Rick is one of the most talented and authentic men of God I’ve ever known!  This CD is really, really good!! It’s on iTunes and CD Baby and it will be coming to more places soon.

I had the honor of singing backup vocals on a few songs and #8, called “My Friend” is a duet between Rick and I. This song is very special because the song was written as a prayer for a good friend of ours named Lisa West, who died just last month after a very difficult year battling cancer. Lisa was Claire-chan’s first Bible teacher at church, and she left behind two beautiful pre-teen daughters. Recording that song helped me very much personally to deal with the inevitable questions of her sickness. If you are dealing with the sting of death or know someone who is, this song could be a real blessing to you perhaps.

You can download the whole CD on iTunes or just a few songs. My favorites are #4 (“Call on the Lord”), #7 (“Pray” is probably my very, very favorite on the whole CD), and #8 (our duet,”My Friend”).

Why are you still here? Go get on iTunes!!
