[Dynagroove] try something different: Terrence Parker Thursday

[Amy Ricketts]

Hmmm.... yes, I will agree that a higher percentage of TPs records lately
are gospel oriented but I must disagree with your blanket statement that,
"Every song was about Jesus or how christ would come down &
> save us or how we should dedicate our lives to the lord, etc., etc." 
Every song was definitely uplifteing, but NOT about GOD.
