Reconciliation promotes harmony in life and music

RR Worship Band members would meet 2-3 times a week, preparing to lead music for upcoming local events on Vancouver Island. Songs would be written by members of the band and sung as well as popular Christian music.

Jodi is an award-winning singer and songwriter. She co-founded Christian Songwriters Network in Saskatoon. One of her songs was made known through her debut album RECONCILIATION years earlier through church friends.

He was going to bring a Fresh Wind and Fresh Fire, Wake Our Nation, and bring Reconciliation.  She had just finished reading Jim Cymballa's book and had written the three songs. Her contemplative prayer songs were recorded in 1999 and again in 2000. She was contacted by Washington D.C. area Rev. Beth Bryant (no relation) who had been tasked with planning one of the six Obama inauguration prayer services. It was a very thrilling and honouring experience for Jodi.
