Mark Arnill entered the world of recorded music in 2003 with his debut album,"Hello God". Following the horrific events of Sept. 11, Mark wrote the title track saying,"Everybody, it seems, had something to say after 9/11. This is my contribution." Over the years Mark has written hundreds of songs, so selecting a collection for his first recording was challenging, to say the least. But listeners will find true gems on this album. As a writer he explores and grapples with many themes, never minimizing the reality of human experience in tragedy, the need to feel loved and accepted, letting go of hurt and bitterness, and clinging to the truths of scripture that express hope, acceptance, and above all, love. Mark's songs will take you on a journey where your deep sadness can meet an even deeper joy. The haunting melodies of"Jerusalem" and"At the Cross" draw us into a quiet place of reflection, while"Please Put a Light in the Window","LOVE", and"The Pearl" lift our spirits to soaring heights of celebrating God's love for mankind. It's no wonder that this first release has nearly sold out. It is an album not to be overlooked. Personal reviews of Mark by dedicated listeners:•Mark speaks to the heart. His contemporary folk style is uplifting, inspirational and easy to listen to.•Emerging from his Christian roots, Mark's music will comfort your soul, deepen your faith, and at times challenge your social conscience.
