The prophet Alma, teaching at the Waters of Mormon, delivered a compelling 'baptismal challenge' to those gathered to listen, suggesting that to become a disciple of Christ was to be 'willing to bear one another's burdens...to mourn with those that mourn...and to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things.' We hope this anthem from one of our earlier albums captures the spirit of that challenge.   For almost 50 years, Joel McCausland and Kevin Peay of Afterglow have been writing, recording and performing inspirational music for people of faith around the globe.
