LOL <BR/><BR/>I know that there are kids in that group that are going to have their hearts opened to Christ because of Chris's lyrics.risaleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754939096270758631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-6485150859482713112008-05-08T17:16:00.000-05:002008-05-08T17:16:00.000-05:00I'm not sure if my reservations for the picnic hav...I'm not sure if my reservations for the picnic have even been made?Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16938628110502581436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-7170759677770490662008-05-08T16:57:00.000-05:002008-05-08T16:57:00.000-05:00Chris,Thanks for today's concert at the Vineyard o...Chris,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for today's concert at the Vineyard of Augusta. You made my daughter's day! she has been a fan of yours since early on in American Idol and was thrilled that you were here and that you were a Christian artist.<BR/><BR/>don't know if you have time to do much reading, but in Jack Hayford's book "Pursuing the Will of God" (on Pgs 79-80) I just read a passage that echoed your testimony regarding turning down man's rewards in favor of God's.<BR/><BR/>Keep growing!

Click the link on the front page of Chris's blog for more information on the picnic and accomodations.<BR/><BR/>Chris, any word on when your tickets for the concert that night will be available?

We had a fire alarm go off about an hour ago, as we've never had one and had not been notified that it was a drill, we were all pretty sure it was the real deal. BTW we are on the 12th floor. Anyway my office is the closest to the doors leading out of our suite so I had time to run to my office and well I'm a girl, so I'm not leaving without my purse no matter what. I had to think really fast about what else I wanted to take as I was being rushed by my friends so I grabbed my purse and 2 pictures...my son's graduation picture....and yes you've probably guessed it by now....my picture of me and Chris taken in B'ham last month.<BR/><BR/>Needless to say it generated quite a buzz and I was happy to explain to everyone who asked why it was critical that I grab it. Heck it took me a year to meet Chris, there was no way I was going to lose any evidence of that meeting!<BR/><BR/>In hindsight I could always have made a copy from my my disk or pulled a copy from my harddrive, but in the heat of the moment, all I knew is I had to have my Sligh pic!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Just sayin.DJ in ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10688855990272617413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-55032416689505246752008-05-08T11:43:00.000-05:002008-05-08T11:43:00.000-05:00There are a ton of reviews (and some interviews)he...There are a ton of reviews (and some interviews)here:<BR/><BR/>http://chris-sligh.info/rosaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02008139855126202575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-12805795685996633252008-05-08T11:08:00.000-05:002008-05-08T11:08:00.000-05:00Hey Chamilton,I started listening to K-Love to hea...Hey Chamilton,<BR/><BR/>I started listening to K-Love to hear Chris and fell in love with it too. Started listening to it all the time. BUT, I really hated that I never heard our guy Chris played. SO, that's when I found HIS radio. They DO play Chris there and it is very uplifting also. you should check it out. I don't know where you're from but you can go online and find stations in your area. I'm glad I did and now I switch back and forth between them. I got to hear Chris on there live yesterday morning promoting his new cd and telling stories about himself...it was very cool!

I played it for my sister (who is visiting from CA) on the way to church and took it in to choir practice with me. When my friends there saw what I had, they were excited to see it. Some didn't know you were a Christian! But all knew you and were interested. Anyways I was talking an excited mile per minute and I hope I helped make a few more sales.<BR/><BR/> It's SO nice to have this CD in my hands! I remember back when you first penned the lyric to Empty Me and you posted it on the blog. Later, came the whole song in a fast tempo on myspace. I didn't like the slower tempo at ALL. But I DO love it now. It feels like a baby has been born or something. Yeah, I was there when he first announced he was expecting, ya know!<BR/> Thanks for letting us be a small part of the long gestation period, Chris.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-17109189557297455092008-05-07T23:39:00.000-05:002008-05-07T23:39:00.000-05:00Risa,Thank you for that.

I wasn't super close to Amanda, but we talked back and forth a few times before her cancer came back and even about the picnic so she is definitely in my prayers. I wanted nothing more than to give her a huge hug at the picnic but now I'm more focused on praying for her and her family SO MUCH. Amanda is so strong and just an amazing girl. Believe it or not, she helped me a lot through losing my grandpa to cancer. It's her strength that has gotten me through such a tough time. I'm sure her mother is just as amazing of a person or seems like one from what I have seen her write over on Amanda's site when she has.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16938628110502581436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-5563581682766306262008-05-07T22:59:00.000-05:002008-05-07T22:59:00.000-05:00The CD is amazing Chris!
