Letters from the hearts of those who took the leap of faith to learn guitar: To: Christian Sing Along Publishing Subject line: You're changing hundreds of lives! Hi! My name is Leah and when I found your web site I knew I had to write you. I ordered your song book from the Brio magazine a few yrs. ago because I wanted to play the guitar. I got one one Christmas and started playing it the next when I got an electric tuner. I have to tell you that your book was such a blessing to me, but not only to me, but to hundreds of others. The scriptures in the book kept me going, and I really wanted to give up.But I prayed and practiced for an hour a day, seven days a week, for ten weeks, and praise God! Since learning those few simple chords I have had many of ministry opportunities, I'll accutally be starting to lead praise and worship for the women's prison ministry tomorrow night! I played at my high school graduation, for children's camp, for a nursing home, and most importantly, for Jesus! Man, you'll never know what your book has done! I now write my own songs and have a CD. It's just for like a demo thing for ministry, but it's still cool. People always want me to play praise and worship, I've played for a small church, for home church at a friends house, virtually everywhere. Any ways, thank you, and God richly bless you! - Leah
You can do it, too! |
To: Christian Sing-Along Publishing first of all, thank you sooooo much for the first lesson book for the guitar! it was soooo awesome! i had really been looking for some way to help "spark" my relationship with God, and trust me, this truly helped! it gave me another new way to serve the greatest influence on my life! but my other reason for writing is to ask if the other two books (2 and 3) are ready to be ordered yet. i saw in the back of book #1 where it said that they were being made, but i wasn't sure if i could order them now or not. well, once again, thank you soooo much for putting these lesson books together, i truly believe they are helping people come closer to God. keep up the great work!!! god bless--whitney mccall :)
To: Christian Sing Along Publishing Hi, I want you to know that my husband and I have really enjoyed Christian Sing-Along Guitar - Book One. we will be starting Week 10 tomorrow, and we were wondering if there is a Book Two, yet? We figured that after Book Two, we will be ready to go on tour!!! :) Well, not quite; but we are interested in continuing our lessons. Thank you for allowing God to use you to bless others! Diane To: Armand, @Christian Sing Along Publishing My wife and I are working with the children's ministry at our church and they asked my wife to lead Praise and Worship earlier this week. Well, last night she kinda' lost her voice soooo, I had to stand in for her (she did play the keyboard instead of her Tiple). So, Armed with my Christian Sing-Along book we led, and it worked just fine. You know IF you sing LOUD enough no one even knows when you play a D instead of a G by mistake! Keep up the good work and God Bless you! In Christ, Kevin |

KEEP ON SINGING
Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new sibling. They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommy's tummy. The pregnancy progresses normally for Karen, an active member of the Panther Creek United Methodist Church in Morristown, Tennessee. Then the labor pains come. Every five minutes ... every minute. But complications arise during delivery. Hours of labor. Would a C-section be required? Finally, Michael's little sister is born. But she is in serious condition. With siren howling in the night, the ambulance rushes the infant to the neonatal intensive care unit at St. Mary's Hospital, Knoxville, Tennessee. The days inch by. The little girl gets worse. The pediatric specialist tells the parents, "There is very little hope. Be prepared for the worst." Karen and her husband contact a local cemetery about a burial plot. They have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby-now they plan a funeral. Michael, keeps begging his parents to let him see his sister, "I want to sing to her," he says. Week two in intensive care. It looks as if a funeral will come before the week is over. Michael keeps nagging about singing to his sister, but kids are never allowed in Intensive Care. But Karen makes up her mind. She will take Michael whether they like it or not. If he doesn't see his sister now, he may never see her alive. She dresses him in an oversized scrub suit and marches him into ICU. He looks like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognizes him as a child and bellows, "Get that kid out of here now! No children are allowed." The mother instinct rises up strong in Karen, and the usually mild-mannered lady glares steel-eyed into the head nurse's face, her lips a firm line. "He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!" Karen tows Michael to his sister's bedside. He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live. And he begins to sing. In the pure hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sings: "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are are gray --- " Instantly the baby girl responds. The pulse rate becomes calm and steady. Keep on singing, Michael. "You'll never know, dear, how much I love you, Please don't take my sunshine away---" The ragged, strained breathing becomes as smooth as a kitten's purr. Keep on singing, Michael. "The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I held you in my arms..." Michael's little sister relaxes as rest, healing rest, seems to sweep over her. Keep on singing, Michael. Tears conquer the face of the bossy head nurse. Karen glows. "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. Please don't take my sunshine away." Funeral plans are scrapped. The next day--the very next day--the little girl is well enough to go home! Someone might have called it "the miracle of a brother's song." The medical staff just called it a miracle. Karen called it a miracle of God's love! NEVER GIVE UP ON THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE!
