I look forward to hearing this collection and your next visit out to the Sacramento area. Your Father album is one of my favorites. And congrats on your new son!

Thanks for the gift, sir.

Partially relevant: I remember a concert in 2006 when you said the phrase “and when we have kids…” and thinking that it was a big shift from previous concerts when you would say in the same story “and if we ever have kids…” So, congratulations on the new phase of learning about the word “Father.”

Our son was born on May 31st last year, so we recommend that date.

I said a prayer for you concerning your Dad. I have a number of your albums which I purchased at full price, but I admit to buying a copy of ‘Father’ off of ebay. It is excellent like all your albums. The thing that strikes me about your music is the passion with which you sing. I have great admiration and respect for you as an artist. I am sure it is simply a reflection of you, the person. God bless.

Long-time fan. I actually think your Grace Must Wound Before It Heals is my favorite – though admittedly haven’t heard all of your albums (including Father).

Enjoyed watching the FIF DVD and seeing the story about you being the lead singer for a day!

Love the new song. I actually went back and downloaded the original on iTunes for perspective.

You guys should think about some more collaberations, great job! Just finished reading Donald Miller’s To Own a Dragon as well, really related some of that book to your song too.
