An easy-listening album that explores various Scriptures and the lessons taught in them. "For the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword...." (Hebrews 4:12a NKJV) It is filled with God's instructions, wisdom, love and truth, and this collection of songs draws deeply from its pages. They were inspired by reading the passages, in times of prayer and through messages shared by others. Because the Word is alive, as we prayerfully read it, God's truths are impressed upon our hearts, and we are changed by it. I pray that the lessons which became real to me and spoke to my heart, will speak to yours as well, and that these songs will minister the Truth of the Word in a fresh and inspiring way. May it also encourage us to spend more time searching out the endless treasures contained in the Bible, as we spend time with the Author and allow His words to breathe life and hope into us every day.

As always, I give thanks and praise to my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, for all He has done for me, and for His gift of song which He entrusted to me. My precious family is always the team that encourages, strengthens, loves and supports me, and I can never thank them enough for enduring my recording frustrations and delays, and standing with me in this ministry. It brings me such joy to have our children singing with me on several of the tracks, and I appreciate their willingness to join me.

This Christian worship CD focuses on the Hebrew names of God and their meanings, which give us a glimpse of His nature and attributes. The simple songs are keyboard/guitar based in a Messianic praise and worship style.

This latest CD, Names of God, is somewhat of a departure from my usual style. Corresponding to the Hebrew name theme, the music for a number of the songs is a Messianic worship style. It is both joyful, reflective and worshipful. These Hebrew names of God have always fascinated me, and as I meditated on them, over a period of several days in the spring of 2011, these songs poured into my heart. The list is by no means complete, but it gives us a glimpse of God's attributes, qualities and majesty. As we call upon His name, we find in Him the response to our every need. And as we focus on Who He is, we will recognize His authority, be drawn closer to Him, and be changed. My prayer is that as you hear and sing His names, you will come to know and love Him more; becoming more aware of His presence as you worship our awesome God - the Holy One. He alone is worthy of all praise.

I grew up in a Christian family where singing and music were always a part of our home. Both of my parents played multiple instruments, and all of us children learned to play several as well. We often sang at senior’s homes and other special events. At about age 14 I started writing songs on the piano, and later learned the guitar which is now what I usually play and compose with. Many of the songs I write are simple praise choruses and children’s songs, but I have also written numerous full-length songs with a style I would describe as a combination of praise/inspirational/country gospel. I have also written and performed many songs customized for special events, such as weddings, dedications, anniversaries, family reunions, Christmas programs, funerals, etc.. I have written over 1,500 songs, and have made 10 recordings in a friend’s home studio, with my latest five recorded at my home. I also had one CD recorded by the CBC for their radio show “Road Records” after being chosen in their contest, and I had a song chosen by a Nashville company to be featured in their demo showcase, which was made available to publishers and performers throughout North America. I have had some recent international radio exposure, including having several songs on the European Country Music charts, and an internet presence on various music sites.

I believe God has given me a gift to write music, and I am looking to share these songs, wherever He opens up an opportunity. My desire is to honor & glorify Him by sharing what He has given to hopefully encourage and edify the body of Christ.

This CD features songs about God's love, grace and forgiveness and portrays the truth of the cross in a very personal and powerful way. It reminds us of our need for salvation, and the amazing gifts of grace and love that God offers to each every person.

This project was inspired by a visit to a young offender facility, where we sang and shared the message of God’s love and salvation. Some of the young men had never heard the words “Jesus loves you”, and my heart was burdened for those who had never been told that amazing truth. The title song came the following day, as I so strongly felt this was a message that needed to be proclaimed. I was compelled to create a CD with the theme of God’s love, grace and forgiveness that would portray the truth of the cross in a very personal & powerful way. For those who have never heard about salvation, I pray these songs will touch your heart & prompt you to turn your life over to the God who loves you. For those who have drifted away from your loving Father, may you be drawn back into His welcoming arms. He is waiting for you. And for those are very familiar with Calvary’s story, may these songs awaken a fresh realization of what Jesus did for us.

Simple scripture choruses and worship songs in an easy-listening, inspirational style.

The songs on this CD center around the themes of overcoming, spiritual warfare & God's strength. They were written over a span of several years, during times of prayer, while reading & meditating on the Word or after hearing inspired messages. I have been conscious of God speaking to His people about the spiritual battles we face & His call to remain faithful & be overcomers. My desire is to share what I have been given to encourage, strengthen & build up the body, reminding us all of God's promises & the certain destiny of the Church to be victorious in & through Christ. Thanks again to my Lord for His gifts & the opportunity to use them, to my family for their support & patience & to all those who contributed by sharing of their time & talents. May we all stand together in the strength & power of our God & press on as overcomers! All songs (c) Cyndi Aarrestad, 2010 www.cyndiaarrestad.ca

As the title suggests, the theme of trusting and obeying God, runs through this CD. Many of the lyrics are taken directly from Scripture, and encourage us to live as God calls us to.

Writing music has been part of my life since my early teens and is an integral part of who I am. I have been priviledged to be a recipient of many songs and any honor belongs to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. For me, music is an expression of every emotion, experience, event and desire in my day-to-day living and in my Christian walk. It comes as naturally as breathing, because it is a God-given gift and part of who He created me to be. We are all created to worship God and I know that I find my purpose in singing to the Lord, as these two "life verses" that were prayed over me express:

Psalm 57:7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed:
I will sing and give praise. (KJV)

Psalm 108:1 My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my soul. (NIV)
