Hello friend,
We're back! We've really missed being here with you. And we find it hard to believe we're right in the middle of Holy Week already.
Since our last post in December, some major health stuff has been piling up on us. We'll be able to update you on some of it a little later.
In the midst of all this, the Holy Spirit has been bringing Greg's song, What If I, to our minds for weeks now. We have felt His persistent nudge to post it this week. So, we're trusting Him for what He has in mind for this.
Jesus of Nazareth had everything,
yet allowed himself
to be made nothing.
An intentional
downward
free fall
So says Chapter 2 of the book of Philippians.
I wrote this song years ago as part of a drama scene...
posing this question:
what if I were to make the radical choice to follow Him down that road, disengaging the gears that push my ego upward toward notoriety and acclaim?
In the years since I wrote and recorded this, I often do a check in my spirit:
how far down His path have I ventured?
am I keeping up with Him...
or, actually, down
with Him?
can I go further?
why not?

What If I. (if you click anywhere else on Soundcloud it will take you away from our site/post)
This is the road... laying down
whatever we grasp to steady ourselves
apart from Him
Somehow…
this is where life turns
What am I still holding onto?
Do I trust Him enough
to loosen my grip…
and go with Him?
These are the questions we're grappling with.
Thank you for being here with us.
Peace, kindness and hope to you this Holy Week...
Always with love, gregrinne and heidi

Beautiful as always. I loved the song. Happy Resurrection day to you.
Just listened to this on Good Friday. Wow. Beautiful! So appropriate. Thank you.
The question “what if I? “It’s really what this holy week is all about. It’s so easy for me to fill my life, my time, my thoughts with all kinds of other things that, quite simply, don’t matter.
Thank you for reminding me that this question is the only question that matters: Am I going to be and become what Jesus is asking of me? Or am I going to turn my back on him ?
Corinne and Greg, in the midst of all the incredible challenges that you’re facing, you have chosen to look to Jesus and to find a way to create holy ground in this blog. Well done, faithful servants!
