Providence – a New album by C. R.
Providence ($ 5.94) is a new album based on music I wrote 10-15 years ago.
The reason for the name providence is because in retrospect I can see how God has sovereignly been working in my life.
I hope you like the music. It is for sale at Itunes, and Amazon and many others. I hope you enjoy it. By you purchasing the the album it will help support our ministry.

I Hope My Daughter Hears the President’s Speech
September 6, 2009 | By: John Piper | Category: Commentary
I am stunned at the outcry against the President of the United States speaking to the youth of this nation about the importance of education.
I am embarrassed by the governor of my home state saying, that the president’s plan to address them is “disruptive . . . uninvited . . . and number three . . . I don’t think he needs to force it upon the nation’s school children.”
This speech seems, for me, to be an answer to a prayer that I have prayed for the president repeatedly.
Father, the condition of our schools and families is so broken that nothing seems to be working, especially for the poor in our urban centers. Help our president to have the courage to use his amazing place of influence to speak into this situation in such a way that boys and girls would take their studies seriously and put school above sport and homework above hiphop and graduation above gangs.
O, Lord, create a culture where it is not cool to fail. Give our President the courage to call all children, especially ones who feel hopeless about academic work, to fight for knowledge the way gangs fight for turf.
And as the President plans his speech, help him to feel as helpless as he really is to meet the greatest needs of the children, so that he turns to Jesus who alone has the answer for the ruin and the wrongs of our cities. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
I hope my daughter hears the speech.
It is something good to pray for.

Beautiful message. Hope it can challenge you and encourage you.
