With Christmas money, I bought Casting Crowns “new” CD, “The Altar and the Door.” I first became familar with this CD via the radio. The song “East to West” has been playing since early this summer. That particular song was part of a very powerful moment during my Emmaus Walk. I have never listened to the song the same way since.
There are some great songs on this CD. I’ve only had this CD since Saturday, but the strongest cuts so far for me are “Everyman,” and “The Word Is Alive.” As I’ve been listening to this CD, I sense a sermon series coming from it. I did that with Lifesong and it was one of the more powerful times in the life of our church since I have been here. It’s one of those CD’s that I have to listen over and over again, because I catch something new each time. It’s been a long time since Casting Crowns has released a CD, so it’s good to hear from them again.
