This is a refreshing soprano voice. Her Face to Face collection of favorite hymns is an ode to peaceful, reflective worship. With "This is My Father's World," "Sweet Hour of Prayer," "Just a Closer Walk," and other standards, one is called to "come apart." "The Lord's Prayer" offers a fitting finale to this devotional project.

At its core, The Heart of the Matter is an inspirational CD album, with two Twila Parris gems, "The Warrior is a Child, and "God is in Control." The artist's rendition of "Not too far from here" is a stand out. Contact Christine by writing to: 8105 FM 1753 Denison, TX 75021-6033; or Phone: (903) 813-6578.
