The Shannons are a family group that comes from Indiana and you will enjoy their family harmonies.  Their latest project was recently received at our offices at the Southern Gospel Music Forum and you will enjoy it.

The project gets off to an upbeat start and "He's Everything To Me" is a great start to this project.  The next song slows it down tremendously.  "I'll Be So Glad I Made It Home" is a touching song that celebrates our journey to Heaven and our subsequent joy when we finally arrive!  The pace picks up once again as the Shannons sing "Trading My Cross For A Crown."  This song reminds us that we will someday trade our cross for a crown.  "I'm Going Home" is another song about going to Heaven.  That is a subject that I love and this song does a great job of reminding us about it.

"He Saw It All" is the song that was a huge success for the Booth Brothers.  The Shannons version is enjoyable as well.  "It Is Finished" is a slower song and the message will bless the listener.  "I'll Leave This Valley Behind" is a song that will encourage a listener who is going through a trial.  It reminds us that valleys are only a temporary thing.

"Way Down Deep" picks up the tempo once again and the song reminds us that God can reach us even way down deep in our heart.  "Home Comings In View" reminds us that Heaven is just in view and we can make it if we just trust Christ.  "He Loves You" is a simple message but a great one!  It reminds us that God loves each and every one of us.  I have always loved the music of the Hinsons and you will enjoy "Too Many Times."  That is the final song on this project.

The Shannons are a true family group with all members of the group actually family members.  Their song selection is a nice mix of the familiar and the new songs.  A number of the songs were written by group members James and Shawn Shannon and they were good additions to this project.  My favorite songs from the project are "Too Many Times," "He's Everything To Me" and "I'm Going Home."  I am sure that you will enjoy this project if you listen to it.  You can learn more about the Shannons at www.theshannons.com.
