Who is this Jamin guy anyway?
I am the husband of one and the father of nine. I was created to sing, to worship, to encourage, and to be steady. I am the Owner & Executive Director of Trinity Arts Center, a multi-disciplinary Arts Center in Eastern Tennessee, and the President of Trinity Arts Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization focused on funding arts education and performance. I've been involved with four music projects in my life -- Hot Pink Turtle, Spin Radio, Stand Like Stone, and of course, Jamin Rathbun.

No matter how many times you've dropped the ball. No matter how many times you've failed. No matter how many chances you've squandered. No matter how many hearts you've broken... God's mercy is never too small. God's forgiveness is always enough.


Father... Forgive me and help me. Take away my laziness. Take away my distraction. Take away my fear. Take away my worry. Take away my sin. I hate how I've failed you. Help me to please you. Help me to obey you. Please take my guilt and my shame. Help me to hear you and to be faithful to do what you are calling me to do. Amen.



The songs are part of a compilation called iPop 2006 which, I assume, will be available in stores soon. Regardless... There are a few songs on this disc from some heavy hitters, as well as, good tunes from some new artists so... I'd go grab the free mp3's while they're available.

By the way... The free downloads include:

Who Can Compare - Foolish Things
Something To Believe In - Newsboys
Suddenly - Superchic[k]
Fence Riders - Jimmy Needham
Chicago - Mat Kearney
