I feel the needs to start a new feature here on IVM that spotlights different organizations that I feel are worthy of attention. I will try and make a post weekly but it may turn into a biweekly feature. Please click here to read the story behind YoungLives and our experience dealing with this deeply personal issue.

I’m still chugging away at selling my collection on Ebay. I’ve got so many CDs to list but I can only do so much each day. I recently added a few different lots/albums today including 2 rare lots of Quick and the Dead CDs and an Indie Vision Music 6 CD Super Lot. I put “15” available of each of these two lots but I have plenty more still sealed in boxes. There is also stuff up from Man Alive, Huntingtons, Ghoti Hook, Juliana Theory, Further Seems Forever, Fold Zandura, Dimestore Prophets, Quayle/Spud Puddle, Watashi Wa, Gameface, Starflyer 59, Four Year Strong, Farside, and tons of Dogwood releases!… Continued →

This is a dark time for our world and we need Jesus now more than ever. I pray for the families and those affected by this horrible tragedy in Manchester, UK last night. Our hearts are with you.

I hope this new music video from We Are Messengers will give you some peace and rest from your worries. … Continued →

I have added a bunch of band tshirts, new band specific lots from artists like Dogwood, Forever Changed, Dashboard Confessional, Juliana Theory, Further Seems Forever, and so many more being added each day. There are quite a few “classics” to be found including sealed copies of Sagoh 24/7 first two (and only) releases (band featured members that went on to form Anberlin). Check the auctions out right here. I decided to bypass selling privately and put some stuff on Ebay. It’s easier this way and the best way to maximize earnings to hopefully put towards some IVM related activities in 2017/2018.… Continued →

These “Vinyl” were all scanned in over a year ago and I have collected quite a bit more in that timeframe plus some didn’t scan in for whatever reason.… Continued →
