BRENTWOOD, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Sparrow Records) - Bethany Dillon's new album, Stop & Listen, has secured a spot in Kevin Davis' "Top 10 Albums of 2009" article featured on newreleasetuesday.com. Davis had this to say about Bethany's latest effort: "First song 'Get Up And Walk' impressed me so much I had to listen to it again immediately. According to Bethany, she read this St. Augustine quote she'd scribbled down a couple months before, 'To this you answered me that you are my God, and with a mighty voice you speak to your servant in his interior ear, and break through my deafness.' This inspired me to begin singing the words that start 'Get Up and Walk.' The song is catchy and biblical, which really sets the tone for this great album. First single 'Everyone To Know' is next and is my favorite song on the album. This song is deceivingly light-hearted sounding, but behind it there's a very confronting commandment. I often forget what a commandment it is to share who Jesus is in my life and what He's done. I think it's a pretty common sentiment among American believers not to want to be too pushy with their faith. Just like 'Let Your Light Shine,' this song convicts me to share the Gospel."
