A MESSAGE TO OUR LISTENERS:

MAY 2013

Having been a huge fan of the progressive rock band KANSAS, I was very interested to hear that former KANSAS lead singer, John Elefante—an accomplished singer, songwriter, musician and producer in his own right—was about to release a brand new project.

John is a Believer and has been a huge part of the evolving over the years of Contemporary Christian music.

As I previewed his new recording (to be released on May 7th), I was deeply touched by the song "This Time," which he wrote about the experience his adopted daughter's mother had in an abortion clinic.

John was recently featured on the ACLJ's "Sekulow Now" program, along with that song, as they discussed its relevance especially in light of the horrors of the Gosnell murder trial.

John talked about his song and how it came about...

"It's generally the story of how my daughter came into the world. Her birth mother was seconds from aborting her and decided not to. She asked them at the place that she was at to use the telephone, she called her mom and told her she was pregnant. Her mom said, 'You get out of there immediately!' She's in studio today and I'm really glad she's here."

Listen to an excerpt from the interview, and also excerpts from John's song at this link: http://snd.sc/12szjSy

"This Time" really affects me because I too was once in a similar situation and was pressured by some to have an abortion. But, although at the time I didn't know the Lord, God impressed on my heart that I was carrying a precious life—one that I could not end. My beautiful daughter is testimony to God's saving grace that day.

Here are some of the lyrics from "This Time" by John Elefante:

She laid flat on the table, she asked please can I talk to someone
But a headstrong woman with a blank stare said we've got to get this done
Then she cried out loud please help me, I've got to get to a phone
I need to call my momma, to help me find my baby a home
They said "don't worry, you'll be fine, you're still young, we see this all the time."

Right then the Lord began to speak, you're not taking this one, she's Mine
She'll grow up to seek My name, you're not taking her this time,
I decided before time began, her name is written in My book,
They didn't have the power to take her life, they're not taking her she's Mine
You're not taking her this time, no you're not taking her this time.

I've added "This Time" to our playlist on ElijahStreams, I hope it touches you as it did me, and that God can use it mightily to change hearts and minds.
