The Message Description: Reviewed by Darlene Zschech "When The Message first came out, I went straight to the Psalms. I loved the way [Eugene Peterson] described all of these people and took them all off their pedestals. He talked about them as the everyday people that they were, and all of a sudden so many of the scriptures just came to life in a different way. It's been the greatest evangelism tool for me. I always have one with me when I'm traveling on an airplane or wherever I am because anybody can read it. When people open The Message, there it is and they get it. They understand it. I've never met Eugene Peterson, but I hope to someday, maybe in Heaven. I would love to thank him because I'm so grateful for how The Message has helped me in my own writing and in my own revelation."

But if we're in some way hung up on the past, what does that mean for our lives now? How are we and those around us affected if we're are not fully present? If we're longing for the way things used to be, what does that really say about our understanding and appreciation of our lives today? Maybe we need to learn to embrace our past for what it is, in order to live our lives to the fullest, right here, right now. In 018 Name, we often compare ourselves to others. Some of us even wish we were someone else. Why are we so concerned with what other people think, say, or look like?

The Altar and the Door Description: After two Platinum-selling albums (Casting Crowns & Lifesong), one Platinum and one Gold live project (live from Atlanta & Lifesong Live), numerous awards, and one of the most successful headlining tours in our industry, one might expect a different Casting Crowns. Those who meet this exceptional group, however, quickly realize they are still the same down-to-earth people with ministry at the heart of what they do both on the road, and in their local churches where each of the members serve on-staff or as laypeople, including lead singer/songwriter Mark Hall who still holds his post as youth pastor at his home church. Casting Crowns' third album, The Altar and The Door, draws on this first-hand ministry experience with real people, real life struggle and the faith that overcomes. "At the altar, everything makes sense," Says Hall. "When we're in the church and spending time with God, we know what we're supposed to do and how to live. Everything is black and white. But somewhere between the altar and the door, when we leave and go out into our lives, it all leaks out. Everything gets gray again. It's like we have these two lives, and the Christian life is the journey between the altar and door.trying to get the things you've got in your head, into your hands, into your feet, and into your life. This album is all about that journey of realization, the struggles we encounter and the victory of seeing it as possible." The band is excited about the next ministry chapter to unfold, and is already planning Fall and Spring legs of The Altar and the Door Tour. With the debut radio single hitting in June and widespread media coverage starting late summer through the fall, this album is set to be another phenomenal release setting records and, more importantly, impacting hearts.
