\"chapmanmoment.jpg\"If you\u2019re driving this Thanksgiving weekend, buy and listen to Steven Curtis Chapman\u2019s first new CD project in three years, \u201cThis Moment.\u201d SCC fans will love and appreciate this new collection of material that combines a fresh themes and lyrics with a new expression of the easy sound that has marked his long career. This is his 16th CD project.
\n\u201cMiracle of the Moment\u201d is the kind of good vibe with a memorable hook that should start any good CD. \u201cBroken\u201d features the kind of transparent reflection that should mark any authentically spiritual person, and having met Steven twice and watched his career over time, I know that he lives what he\u2019s saying (err\u2026singing!)<\/p>\n


\nThen comes the highlight on the CD which should be a humungous cross-over hit except for the way music and marketing works these days. If Chapman was a long-time country singer, \u201cCinderella\u201d would be the runaway hit at the Country Music Awards, the Grammys, the American Music Awards and probably a Chevy commercial. As it is, he\u2019ll win a Dove award for this wonderful tribute to the daughters of daddies.
\nThe rest of the tracks are as nicely done as they are sequenced, making for a wonderful ride, or jog , or run, or iPod-accompanied activity of your choice. And what\u2019s more, they\u2019re the kind of uplifting lyrics that are Jesus-centered but not preachy, reflective but not somber, upbeat but not noisy.
\n\u201cThis Moment\u201d could well accompany\u2014even produce\u2014some future defining moments in the lives of all who listen. It\u2019s that good. And it’s worth passing on to those you love during this gift-giving season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
