The Bible quotes, voice and music are well matched and the combination really does offer help and peace’ Eddie Askew Jesus invited his busy disciples saying: ‘Come away with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest….. so the disciples sailed away with him in their boat, seeking a quiet place, away from the crowds ‘ (Mark 6:31-32) The invitation of Jesus still stands but it’s hard to find that elusive ‘quiet place’, surrounded as we are by so much noise, and our lives become so busy, so stressful with many demands and so little time…….we long for the space we need – a quiet place away from the crowds, away from the stress. In a busy and often stressful world anything that can help bring peace, calm and a sense of perspective into our lives is to be welcomed. ‘INSPIRING CALM’ (a relaxing Christian CD with a unique style of it’s own) aims to do just that. Relaxing, calming and meditative, the Inspiring Calm Christian CD features inspiring Bible verses and Reflections mixed with soothing music, ocean waves, gentle streams and birdsong…… something of an oasis of calm in a stressful world.
