"What a blessing to have found your website. I work with early childhood special needs children as an assistant and was so touched by your Whole in the sight of God CD. I want to purchase more of the Whole in the Sight of God CD to give to the parents of the children in my class and my coworkers. It will be such an encouragement for them also. This job is very challenging at times and your music gave a new spark to my job....Thank you so much for listening to God's voice."
- Paula Born, Grundy County Special Education Cooperative, Coal City, Illinois
It's no secret that marriage is one of the most difficult things any of us will ever do.
Like anything worth doing, it takes commitment and a lot of hard work to do it well. Over forty per cent of marriages fail in the United States and unfortunately the numbers are no better among Christian couples.
When you're trying to learn how to do something you want to learn about it from someone with experience. As my friend Gary McSpadden says, "If you want to learn how to fly, talk to a pilot."
Accordingly, for this CD we interviewed four couples whose combined experience total 207 years of marriage! Their stories inspire and challenge. In addition, the piece the Top Ten Reason Why Marriage is Good for You shares sobering statistics that encourage couples to work harder on keeping their marriage relationship healthy.
The five songs on the project deal honestly with the emotions and pain that arise when a marriage is in trouble. Christian marriage counselors have reported that Fifty Years from Now has been a tremendous ice-breaker for couples who have reached the place where communication feels almost impossible.
Whatever the state of your marriage, it is our prayer that this CD resource will bless your marriage, strengthening and re-invigorating it for years to come.

Words & Music by Steve Siler
Becky sits in the darkness imagining the sky
Finding her rainbows in the blessings of life
Without crayons she colors the world with her smile Opening eyes by just being a child
She is whole in the sight of God
She is whole in the sight of God
She can see all things through the eyes of the spirit
She is whole in the sight of God
Johnny sits in his wheelchair as the children run and play
Feeling the warm summer sun upon his face
He moves everyone with his laughter and light
and through prayers they lift up for him every night
He is whole in the sight of God
He is whole in the sight of God
He can run to all things in the path of the spirit
He is whole in the sight of God
None of us is perfect
Every life has a measure of trial
But Father we know
How much you love every single child
Katie lives in deep silence where music never plays
Finding her songs in the joys of each new day
Without notes she's creating a new symphony
'Cause her gentle sweet soul is it's own melody
She is whole in the sight of God
She is whole in the sight of God
She can hear all things through the words of the spirit
She is whole in His sight
We are whole in the sight of God
We are whole in the sight of God
We can do all things through the grace of His spirit
We are whole in the sight of God
