Mr. Bill finds himself on the soapbox this morning after queuing up a huge playlist of Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) videos. He asks his readers to show him the difference between the CCM world and the rest of the music “business” or “industry”.

This post is to be the beginning of trying to share the overwhelming amount of loneliness I'm trying to conquer. Heather and I splurged a little today and went to Cracker Barrel for … Continue reading Not Home Yet…
