WILD - 4411 (Official Album Release Video) youtu.be/9tTuRqZXCwQ via YouTube. My son and his band’s first album release video! Xander’s on keyboard and is the videographer. So proud of these guys-all 16 and juniors in high school. Not letting this pandemic hold ‘em back.

Christ the King: "We bring before you now all that troubles us: our failings, errors, and exaggerations, our tribulations and sorrows, and also our rebelliousness and bitterness—our whole life and our whole heart, which you know better than we know it ourselves." -- Karl Barth
