(insert exclamation points where ever you feel so inclined)

Caedmon’s Call has announced via their MySpace blog that not only are they releasing their 15th album, Overdressed, on 28 August, and not only will it be on INO Records, but… Derek Webb is returning to action as a member of the band…

Regarding the album… “Overdressed is a 12 song cd collection unlike any other Caedmon’s Call record, organically acoustic with emphasis on rhythm while maintaining cleverly-written lyrics. All songs were co-wrote between Andrew Osenga, Randall Goodgame, Derek Webb and Webb’s wife, musician Sandra McCracken.”

Full disclosure and more relevant information can be found at the aforementioned blog entry, CaedmonsCall.net, INORecords.com or CaedmonsCall.com (is that enough?)

i’m sure that there’s more to report, but that’s the BIG news…

peace… love… bdg…

Okay, i’m starting to fall a bit behind, but we’re continuing forward… this chapter talks a bit about the story of Moses, the early figurehead of deliverance, since he was the leader of the Israelites as they were led out of Egypt…

the point is made that Moses was prepared to be the leader of this deliverance, because he himself had been delivered… and in fact a pattern of deliverance had been established in his life from a very early age… i’m not entirely certain that i agree with the spotlighted quote here, “A great leader can’t lead where he hasn’t been led before”… but i’m sure it’s simply meant to tie into the experience piece of last chapter…

It’s funny how we always end up needing to be delivered though, isn’t it? for all our advancements, and for all our attempts to control the world around us – even to the point of assuming the role of global deliverer – we can’t avoid the realization that we’re oppressed in our own way and that we need the Messiah…

the greatest revelation of the grace and glory of God is the redemption and deliverance of us sinners…
