Fellow Catholic convert and blogger Russ Rentler has released a new CD, Way to Emmaus, which I have now listened to several times and can happily recommend.

I would describe Russ’ music as acoustic-folk; it’s pleasant and relaxing to listen to, a cross between Rich Mullins and John Denver. Here’s Russ in his own words about this CD:

I have recently finished a CD that attempts to highlight the beauty of the Catholic faith with some apologetics thrown in as well. My eyes were opened to Jesus in the “breaking of the Bread” while I was living in the little town of Emmaus, PA. Hence the title track of the CD is called Way to Emmaus. All the proceeds from the sales of the CD go to our Haiti Medical Mission.

My favorite songs on the album are: Room of Tears, a beautiful song about the election of Pope Benedict, the two instrumentals Holy God (hammer dulcimer) and Sing of Mary (Autoharp and mandolins), and Jewel of the Caribbean, a song for our Haitian brothers and sisters.

Get some good Catholic music and help out a mission to Haiti as well!
