YANCY ~ Rock-N-Happy Heart CD Giveaway CLOSED

Congratulations Jen and Stacy! You each win a CD!


imageI was recently sent an awesome Yancy Rock-N-Happy Heart CD and devotional book to review. I had never heard of Yancy but am always looking for awesome products for preteen girls specifically. I developed and lead the God’s Girls program at our inner-city church. We lead a group of about twelve 10-13 year old girls each year and spend an intense week teaching them about what God’s word says about many issues. We put an major focus on modesty and purity, while also sharing about many other issues relevant to young girls today. This week long program then turns into our weekly God's Girls Sunday school class which I also lead.

When I was contacted to see if I would be interested in reviewing this CD and devotional I was thrilled, as I immediately thought of the possibility that it could be a great new resource for the God’s Girls program in addition to sharing the music with my own children!

The daily devotional book is wonderful. I will definitely be using it as a resource with my God’s Girls!!!

After listening to the music, I was excited to learn a few things…

  1. I LIKE the music! I have actually added a couple of the tracks to my “Mommy’s Quiet Music” playlist on my iPod!
  2. It is scripturally based! I am very picky when it comes to music, even Christian music ;-). I was happy to listen and even hear verses within the songs. The message of Jesus is loud and clear, I love it!
  3. It is COOL! Yup, it’s hip, modern, cool and awesome!!!!

I would highly recommend this CD especially if you have kids {of any age}!!!! I like the music, so I can imagine that those of you with kids will really enjoy this music along with your children! With all of the worldly music out there for young kids {especially in the preteen age range}, it is nice to see a cd that is “cool” and Godly!!!

The songs are mostly all written by Yancy herself, which I think is so awesome. I absolutely adore singer/songwriters!!! I was also surprised and happy to hear the song “My Savior, My God” written by Aaron Shust, a well known Christian song these days!. You can see lyrics to all of the songs on the cd here in an awesome PDF format.

In case you’re not convinced yet, here's two videos I found on YouTube. This is the awesome song Shout it Out…

Here’s one that gave me chills, a little 4 year old singing Shout it Out with Yancy, it’s so cute!!!!
