Traditionally, introducing yourself and your music to the right people has meant creating a press kit. And that means a well-designed brochure that showcases your talents and distinctive sound, along with a CD so they can actually hear you.

I think it is a bogus claim people in the press make when they say what the right wants is a fight about ideology, ... No. What we want is a good justice nominee but not a fight for the sake of having a fight. If it takes a fight to get a good justice, fine.

I believe that we're doing the right thing. The press doesn't agree with the president on these things. The people I speak to assure me he is doing the right thing.

It's been a perennial problem for Christian musicians. Traveling hundreds of miles to minister at a church, coffee house, or concert, and then playing your heart out for a meal and maybe a small offering.

You talk to most independent Christian musicians who've paid their dues and they've all had a similar experience. They travel hundreds of miles to minister at a church, coffee house, or concert, and then play their hearts out for a meal and maybe a small offering.

There are tons of great Christian artists who don't have access to the marketing machinery to get their names and music into the right hands. And there are a wealth of venues ? from churches, to coffee houses, Christian colleges, concert promoters, and Christian music festivals ? that are looking for these talents.
