Musings of a Catholic Convert

JMT will be in concert tonight at Church of the Incarnation in Collierville, TN (where I b) at 7pm.  It's a free concert, but a love offering will be collected, so share the love.

John Michael Talbot is one of my favorite musicians.  Long before I was Catholic I listened to JMTs music.  Both he and Michael Card have never been afraid to have deep theological themes to their music, which is a refreshing break from the often shallow content of the so-called "praise music" that I've been exposed to.  JMT's willingness to pursue a meditative/contemplative musical ministry shows a lot of guts.  And God has honored him for his decision and his faithfulness.

If you're in the area, drop by for the concert.  You won't be disappointed. 

Oh, and if you're feeling particularly outgoing today, why not drop over to his blog on blogger and invite him to join us in our happy little Catholic blogging community. 

I feel like I've been mauled by wild cougars or angry leprechaun.  Monday's just are not my day of the week.  However, I am mega super ultra excited about one particular Monday.  March 10 I will have the opportunity to be a guest on The Journey Home television program, hosted by Marcus Grodi.  I'm both excited and nervous about the opportunity.  It has been a little while since I was in front of a camera.  However, I'm trying not to think about the fact that I'll be on a worldwide live television broadcast.  It does me no good to worry about it.  What I have to focus on is being myself and sharing what God has done in my life.

Do you want a sneak preview?  Then I suggest you do one of two things.  

1.  Search this blog for my posts: Why Catholic?

2.  Go to my ministry page where they are already indexed for you. 

I would appreciate it if you prayed for me.  You know, while I'm thinking about prayer, I could use your prayers also for a personal intention of mine.  I can't go into details online, but there are two things I'm praying about that could sure use the prayer support.  Thanks in advance.
