- Jason Anderson

RE:ZOUND's new album, entitled "Abandoned to You" was released on March 11 through VSR Music Group and Distributed by EMI CMG Distribution. The title track is our current single. If all you CHR and AC stations could rotate "Abandoned to You" about 60 times a day, that would be awesome. Now that was funny. :) BTW - If you were not serviced with the single, email us and let us know and we'll get a copy out to you right away.

RE:ZOUND – Playing for crowds reaching 50,000 – 75,000 per event at rock crusades since 2001 spanning 6 nations including Communist Vietnam, being named MTV’s #1 undiscovered band in 2001, impacting Christian radio with 3 top 20 singles from an independent release in 2004….although this is RE:ZOUND’s first nationally distributed album via Vertical Shift Records ™ EMI/CMG, the band is not naive to the road, or to the service of the gospel.

With help from JR McNeeley (Mercy Me, Jeremy Camp, Kutless) this album is poised to explode. "Music is the platform, redemption through Christ is the message. If all of this helps us reach more people with the gospel, then I’m in," explains front man Jason Anderson (yes, the voice of the radio spots, "Taking a Minute"™) The music has the familiar flavor of Casting Crowns with a heavier edge, and lingering melodies that will keep you humming past the time you should’ve been asleep. There is no doubt about the message and purpose of RE:ZOUND… no doubt whatsoever. Hesitating to say, it’s all very beautiful.

Your Life INCorporated

Grace Unedited

Leadership School

Your Life Incorporated
We are made in the image and likeness of God. God is a Spirit. We are a spirit. God has asked us to be led by the Spirit in our lives. God has given us many other tools to help us run our race. We have a vehicle, a body, to get around in. We have a mind, will and emotions. Everything God made for us was good but we sometimes abuse them. If we can begin to see these gifts God has given us as employees in our company, submitted to the Spirit of Christ and to the the purpose we have here on earth. If we can learn to lead ourselves successfully we can then begin to lead others. This message is designed to teach you how to live a Spirit-led life. This series will pour into the foundation of your life so that you will be able to build taller and stronger the dreams God has given you.

Grace Unedited
Much of the church body is not teaching grace fully for fear that Christians will use it as a free pass for a sin fest. Well, here is Grace Unedited, the way the Bible presents it. Isaiah 54 speaks of redemption; a change in the relationship with God that now has come to fruition through the death and life of His only Son, Jesus. God didn't change, but the relationship did. Now God has sworn not to be angry with us, never to rebuke us again. Can we accept that? Can we believe that God's blessings come to us because we believe and not based on our ability to live right? Can God bless you even though, at times, you are a mess? The answer is 'yes' and I'll show you why.
