May 14, 2019 23:28 - 36 minutes - 49.9 MB

A worship release caught out attention recently. Sarah Kroger's debut album with Integrity, Bloom, showed up in our inbox last month with a long list of production and co-writer credits that we couldn't ignore including our friends Ross King, PJ Anderson, Audrey Assad, and Josh Blakesley. That was intriguing enough for us to give the album a spin. It certainly didn't disappoint. We invited Sarah to join us to chat about Bloom, her faith journey, and her go-to self-case regimen. She was an a...

Two Minute Music Review - "A Million Lights" by Michael W. Smith

September 19, 2017 00:00 - 3 minutes - 5.23 MB

Back in August, Michael W. Smith released his new single “A Million Lights” to the world as a sampling of his new full-length album to be released early next year. We at Frequency tend to look out into the blogosphere, the industry, the other podcasts and gauge the response of consumers and industry experts, to get their take on new releases.I’m sad to report, that there has been very little by way of review or response to the song. The reviews (which are all glowing 5 stars) on Amazon are no...

AMPD Interview 36 - Stu G: A Symphony of Suffering and Hope

June 20, 2017 13:29 - 20 minutes - 28.2 MB

We admit it: sometimes it can be difficult to get us to move off of high center. You can put wonderful art right in front of our faces - we will even enjoy and appreciate it - and yet we can get so buried in the day-to-day existence that we fail to bring it to you. That was nearly the case with The Beatitudes Project, an album, book, and documentary film from songwriter/guitarist Stu G. It's an ambitious and timely project, well-crafted and striking in its reexamination of the blessings fro...

Ross King: Artistry, Unchained and Unsafe

May 31, 2017 04:14 - 28 minutes - 38.8 MB

It's probably safe to say that we don't mind playing favorites - especially when it comes to folks like Ross King. Yes, he's a talented singer/songwriter who doesn't mind pushing up against Christian music industry norms.

February 11, 2017 05:33 - 47 minutes - 65.3 MB

Who says there's no such thing as providence? You certainly won't hear it from us. Our episode today is the result of the appearance of a small package on Joe's doorstep.

This inspiring yet practical piece paves a path to the restoration of personal faith for those who have been hurt or betrayed by established institutions of faith.

Podcast Episode 43 - Paul Baloche: A Season of Change

October 12, 2016 18:27 - 47 minutes - 65.2 MB

For folks with some level of awareness related to Christian music, the name Paul Baloche is familiar If that doesn't ring a bell, just name a few songs he's written - like "Open the Eyes of My Heart", "Your Name", or "Hosanna (Praise Is Rising)" - and you're bound to get a head nod.

October 07, 2016 13:17 - 12 minutes - 17.7 MB

Note from Jim:I met Matt Storer, CEO/President of VisionTrust International through a mutual friend here in Colorado Springs. The thing that is different, in my opinion, about VisionTrust is that they are in these countries for years. I met Nelson today who celebrated his 15-year anniversary as Director of VisionTrust Dominicana (Dominican Republic). When news of what was happening in Haiti developed, I reached out to Matt to see what they were going to do to help families and children in Hai...

July 29, 2016 13:19 - 41 minutes - 76.2 MB
