Joy Beyond the SorrowJoy Beyond the Sorrow, the new album from Indelible Grace is available to order and download today. I’ve been listening to it for a few days now and can say that it’s their best yet. Seriously, it’s a fantastic album. Go here for digital only, or here to order the CD (and get immediate downloads).

Come Ye SinnersCome Ye Sinners, a new live album from Sojourn Music, also releases today.

—C.H. Spurgeon
