Friends of Cedar Church Releasing 'Love Is The Heart Of Christmas Time'
Andrew Kisumba, the pastor of Cedar Church in Birmingham, England, and a songwriter, has gathered a gospel choir collectively known as Friends of Cedar Church, to release a new Christmas song called "Love Is The Heart Of Christmas Time".
The single is released on December 2nd and is available for pre-order now at iTunes and Amazon Worldwide.
"Christmas can be a sad, lonely, tense and uncertain time for many people around the world", explains Andrew. "Personally, I remember not celebrating Christmas Day as an eight year old boy, because my father had passed away two days before and we were waiting to have his funeral on Boxing Day. On the exact same day in subsequent years, my family experienced both the loss of a grandfather and the funeral of a younger brother. Many have faced and will encounter worse trials and traumas and yet all this trouble in life is the real reason for the season.
The Bible records in John chapter 3 verse 16 how human history changed from B.C. to A.D. 'For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.'
For over 2000 years and still counting, this truth has continued to bring hope, joy and freedom to countless souls who have walked the face of this troubled earth - myself and my family included. Over the ages, a vast array of Christmas traditions have developed all around the globe, but if you reach into the season you will find love is the heart of Christmas time."
