Album Review: Mandisa’s “Overcomer”

Mandisa_Overcomer_20130613

It’s party time!

The 2013 end of summer bash has arrived in Mandisa’s “Overcomer”. It is impossible to summarize this pure musical delight. The eleven tracks all have their own charm, but there are some stand out tunes.

Check out BTSCelebs’ favorites below:

Back To You – This is a song about expounding on a Christian’s gratitude for God’s grace and love. He has given so much for us that you want to give back to Him. I can’t stop listening to this poppy and cheerful song.

At All Times – The ultimate oldie but goodie CCM track. This reminds me so much of Anointed‘s music in the early 2000s. The lyrics about praising the Almighty God all the time are new, but the music will take you back to time when music brought a smile to your face.

Joy Unspeakable – Go clubbing for God! This dance song literally sounds like it should be on every DJ’s list. He gives Christians so much joy that it is unfathomable.

The entire album supplies at least one memorable Bible passage and dedication per song. The Holy Trinity, Mandisa’s fans on Twitter and Facebook, celebs like Giuliana Rancic and Robin Roberts all have a song dedicated to them. You have to read the lyrics booklet to discover which song is for whom.

BTSCelebs gives “Overcomer” a 9 out of 10. The only reason I didn’t give it a 10 is…. because her beautiful love song to her future husband didn’t fit into the worship line-up. It would have been better to release it as a single.

Nonetheless, enjoy your Labor day weekend with some free “Overcomer” tracks via YouTube!

Book Review: Rene Gutteridge & John Ward’s “Heart Of The Country”

ReneGutteridge_JohnWard_HeartoftheCountry_08202013

“Heart Of The Country” is a trip.

If you love medical programs and extensive spotlights on death and loss, you will be a fan of this book. The story begins with Faith‘s loving mother, Catherine, slowly transitioning between life and death. She is in the ambulance on her way to the hospital following a car accident that left her in critical condition. In the next chapter, we are fast forwarded to the present with Faith and Luke’s upscale lifestyle. They enjoy New York’s high society scene until on a business decision forces the happy couple to separate.

As the story unfolds, Catherine’s first-person narrative of her final hours on earth damper the first half of an otherwise interesting and well written tale. The second half of the story focuses on Faith’s father dying of a terrible illness. I almost cried twice in the final chapters and tearjerkers are not my cup of tea.

The couple’s journey back to one another is a decorative frame to a story about coping with loss and healing.

“Heart Of The Country” took me by surprise, but I hope you put on your seat belt before you travel down sorrow lane.

“Heart Of The Country” will be available in stores in September. (The movie based on the book is in stores now.)
