On August 29, 2017, the Feast of the Passion of St. John the Baptist, and in the wake of the destruction wrought by Hurricane Harvey across central and coastal Texas, RED-C Radio extended its heartfelt sympathy to those affected and offered its prayers. This week's program offered a chance for listeners to step away from the stress of the weekend's weather by learning about the efforts of two different Catholic artists. In the first part of the show, Cici Stevenson and Seah Schiavolin introduced listeners to the 8Beats Movie Project. A collaborative effort of Catholic filmamkers and cinematographers across the nation, it will produce short dramatic films to explain the real-life implications of living the eight Beatitudes (hence the name!). Listeners can visit 8beatsmovie.com to view the films once they are produced and to learn more about the project. To support the effort financially, go to indiegogo.com/8beats. In the second part of the program, Catholic musician and performer, Michael James Mette, talked about his new album Between the Lines. Literally recorded and produced in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, Lines is both a spirtually searching and rich album on songs like "You'll Never Forget Me" and a paen to 90s bubblegum pop with tracks like "Summertime." The debut single "Higher" pulls the listener onto the dancefloor even as it rejoices in the gratuitous outpouring of God's love for His children. The album is available through Amazon on CD and through iTunes digitally to name just two retailers. Please purchase the album to support Mette's ministry of free concerts for Catholic parishes and organizations. For booking and more inofrmation on Between the Lines visit michaeljamesmette.com.
