Driving Notes

Today we celebrate the Easter weekend – the death and resurrection of Jesus.  We’ve been playing Easter-themed songs throughout the day and today’s NZ Top 10 fit right in!

10. Jeremy Camp, Same Power
9. Danny Gokey, Tell Your Heart to Beat Again
8. Lauren Daigle, Trust in You
7. MercyMe, Flawless
6. Chris Tomlin, Good Good Father
5. Big Daddy Weave, My Story
4. Jordan Feliz, The River
3. Matthew West, Grace Wins
2. Stars Go Dim, You are Loved
1. Casting Crowns, Just Be Held

We also featured two of Michael W. Smith’s songs from his 2-CD collection, Hymns and Hymns II: Shine on Us, available at Cracker Barrel stores.  I picked these up last month after hearing Michael sing and speak at the NRB worship service in Nashville, TN. We played ‘Victory in Jesus’ and ‘The Old Rugged Cross.’ Click here for more on Michael’s hymns projects.

Also, a BIG thanks to the Ohio State Fair for allowing us to to a ‘win it before you can buy it’ ticket giveaway with Lecrae. Today’s winner was Donna of Mount Vernon – congratulations!

The Word of the Day is: Golgotha, the proper name for the place where Jesus was crucified. It is a Greek word meaning “the place of skulls.” Also called Calvary, which is Latin meaning “the skull.”

Thanks for listening and Happy Easter!
