Less than two weeks!
Sophie - May 13, 2009
It's hard to believe that it's been almost four months since Melanie and I (and so many of you!) made the trip to Atlanta to see Travis Cottrell record his Jesus Saves LIVE CD. I will remember that night for the rest of my life, and I still think it's a wonder that every single rafter in that sanctuary didn't come tumbling to the ground when Angela Cruz sang "Mercy Seat." I've never heard anything like it.
The CD hits stores on June 2nd, and it is absolutely phenomenal (repeat after me: PHE-NOM-E-NAL). We're gonna have us a little photo caption contest next week so that we can give away a few copies as prizes. In the meantime, I thought y'all might like to see this preview video.
Last thing: "Jesus Saves" is playing on Christian radio (right now it's number 18 on the inspirational charts), so if you have a Christian radio station in your area and you love the song, you can totally call in and request it.
(Maybe you'll even be caller #14 and win some sort of fabulous prize pack that involves Petra albums and two tickets to Amy Grant's "Age to Age" tour.)
(Sorry. I am powerless to resist the 80s nostalgia.)
(Good times.)

I’ll have you know I’m standing here in my kitchen bawling over this song, that night, the experience, the music, Travis, the whole Megillah!!!
I cannot wait for this to come out.
Thanks for posting…now I’m sending the link to everyone else who was there.
God bless you Travis Cottrell for rocking our world with your music.

I cannot wait for this CD and DVD. And I cannot promise that I won’t listen to Mercy Seat over and over until my CD player says “uncle.” That night was seriously one of the best nights ever. Certainly the best night of worship ever. No contest there.

Phenomenal is right! What powerful worship.
I can’t believe it’s been 4 months…

Cannot. Stinking. Wait.
I will always and forever pretend like I was there.
Travis, thank you for your ministry. You are good and what you do is good.

YAY! I saw Angela in the choir, too :0)
I wonder if it will be available in Laramie next weekend??
I cannot even tell you how excited I am to purchase this! My mp3 player and my favorite place to walk will be like a sanctuary for this child. Mmm.

That was the most awesome night of worship I have ever been a part of! Cannot wait to get my copy of the CD and play “Mercy Seat” over and over!
So awesome to have had the opportunity to meet you and Melanie, too!

Oh my I CANNOT WAIT for this CD! I was there and I still get chills thinking about that night.
I pre-ordered two cds, but I think I’m going to buy a few more to give as gifts!!
