I am currently seeking out talented Christian artists of any genre or style to fill the ranks of our new Digital Compilation that will be posted in December just in time for Christmas.

We have released 4 compilations in 2008 totaling more than 200 songs and exposing thousands of people to great unsigned talent.

Please help us make this our best compilation ever!!!

I am bringing a few prayer requests to your attention:
Pray for our nation overall…. our leaders, “the issues”, etc.
Pray for our youth centers (there influence is unknown, but for the most part is REALLY positive).
Pray for all the people who visit IVM, the ones seen, and especially, the ones unseen.
and… I need some prayer too, my life is going through a lot of snags lately and it is a really confusing, awkward time… unlike any I have ever experienced… I had to take two years off from college and am just fresh into my second year of it. I just have a lot going on, feel free to e-mail me if you need specifics: ivm.len@gmail.com

also, put in prayer requests in the comments, general ones please…. if you need specific prayer, e-mail one of us that is on staff (bloodwater, me, Brandon, etc.) and we will make sure we pray for that specific need.

Becoming The Archetype has yet another new song out called Evil Unseen. It’s streaming on the HM Magazine myspace.

I thought I had more time, but I have to get out of here.
