The musically gifted members of Roots of Faith have put together an album called Hac! V’Shema – Shut Up! and Listen.
God has drawn several talented musicians to the Roots of Faith Congregation in Saint Francisville, Louisiana.  In keeping with the vision of this unique Bible fellowship, these musicians elected to write and perform their original music in the desire to be an inspiration to those who base their faith on Scripture alone.

You will be inspired by the incredible music on this CD.  The title is Hac! V’Shema – Shut up and Listen. The title seeks to convey the idea that quite often we fail to hearken because we are too busy talking.  The title of the album sends the strong message that we should HAC (be silent – hush!) and SHEMA (listen).

Here is what the musicians had to say about their contribution to this album:

John Carlson
“It was truly a blessing to be able to share the gifts HaShem has given to our little group of misfits.  I pray that each person that hears it will be touched by something it has to offer.  Not to mention I that it was great to have the opportunity to play with my toys again.” ;-{)} John C.
 
Glenn Chatterton
“What an incredible privilege it is to worship the Father! May this offering from the heart be acceptable in His sight.”  The songs are The Lord’s, not mine. Glenn C.


Sherry Cole
“What a joy to be included in this recording! May each listener be encouraged to walk in the way of the LORD, and in so doing, walk in the blessing of the LORD .”  Sherry


Tammy Michael
“You know you’re in the right place when your heart is filled with this much love.” Tammy
