Prison Fellowship presents  The Restoration Series: Jonathan’s Walk , a 5-part documentary film series following Jonathan as he is released on parole to join his wife and kids after 15 years in prison. I watched part of the first episode (see the video below) and was very impressed. The story is powerful and the production is well done. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the series.

My Shining Hour is Steph Carse 's new album which consists of some original songs, two hymns, and two cover songs. His voice reminds me of Elvis Presley :). On this album, he personally wrote four songs (" Awesome ", " Healing River ", " My Shining Hour ", and " I Sing ") from what he has experienced in his life and along his journey of faith. Below is the list of songs: 1. Amazing Grace 2. Awesome 3. Healing River 4. My Shining Hour 5. Sometimes It Rains 6. To Make You Feel My Love 7. Crying in the Chapel 8. I Sing 9.

Unfortunately, we could become so familiar with it that it doesn't touch our soul like it used to. I was pleasantly surprised and stirred by Steph Carse 's beautiful rendition of Amazing Grace . He s...
