Movie Night | 5000 Blankets

Looking for some inspiration this holiday season? I’ve got a great movie recommendation for you!

Inspired by a remarkable true story, 5000 BLANKETS is filled with hope and highlights the power of family and faith.

When her husband has a mental breakdown and goes missing, a determined woman and her young son set out to find him on the streets, sparking a movement of compassion toward those in need and inspiring a city.

5000 BLANKETS features Anna Camp (PITCH PERFECT 1 and 2) as Cyndi; Rob Mayes (THOR: RAGNAROK) as her husband, Bobby; and Carson Minniear (RALLY CAPS) as her son, Phillip.

Bobby is a loving and lovable husband and devoted father, who struggles with mental health issues. After suffering a mental breakdown he checks himself out of the treatment facility leaving his concerned family to wonder where he’s gone and if he’s safe.

His wife, Cyndi and their son, Philip, start combing the streets to find him. Seeing so many un-homed and suffering breaks their hearts and inspires them to help where they can. With their church and others lending a hand they set to work giving out blankets and dignity to those living on the streets in their Texas community, and in the process they find purpose and hope for themselves.

5000 Blankets is only in theaters on Monday and Tuesday, December 12th & 13th.
This holiday season take the family, take a friend, take yourself!

WATCH THE TRAILER:

The Chosen | Season 3 Begin


The Chosen, Season 3 - the multi-season streaming TV series about the life of Jesus of Nazareth - is here!

In an exciting twist this year, they are debuting episodes 1 and 2 of the most emotional and consequential season to date on the big screen beginning November 18th. Tickets are on sale now, so don't hesitate, it's going to be a wonderful night out!

I was recently invited to tour the set of The Chosen at their brand-new home at Salvation Army's Camp Hoblitzelle, in Midlothian, Texas, and meet with several members of cast and crew.

The set build was a huge undertaking, the landscape needed to believably represent biblical locales (such as the Feeding of the 5,000) while also housing production facilities, a state-of-the-art, 30,000-square-foot soundstage and an authentic first-century city. The biblical set covers two acres, or approximately two football fields side-by-side.

When filming is complete, the set will be turned back over to the Salvation Army to use in their outreach with children's camps. AND I GOT TO SEE AND EXPERIENCE IT ALL!!!I

You can listen to my podcast episode with Dallas Jenkins, creator, director, and co-writer of the series, as well as several cast members including Amber Shana Williams, who plays the incredible Tamar, Brandon Potter, as the villain we love to hate, Quintus, Giovani Cairo, who portrays Thaddeus, Jordan Walker Ross, who is Little James, Lara Silva, as Eden, and Elizabeth Tabish who shines as Mary Magdalene, HERE.

The Chosen came to me in the midst of a world-wide pandemic - when Fear and Hope were running a footrace and Fear seemed to be taking the lead. The Chosen showed up and showed me and my family that all it took was a matter of perspective (and a mustard seed of faith) to see that Hope was going to be the clear and obvious winner each and every time they matched up in a competition. 

I don't know what you may be going through right now, but I do know that we all have something. Some challenge, some trial, some insecurity that weighs upon us.  I encourage you - as I always do, to let go and let God, and while you're working on that, watch The Chosen.

Its characters are sublimely multi-dimensional, beautifully flawed, brilliantly portrayed, and you will come away awed and inspired. 



2022 Merry Music Musts!

It’s THAT TIME again! The time I’ve been waiting for all year long… Time for Christmas music all day, every day!

Nothing makes me quite as giddy as the day we flip the switch to all-Christmas programming, it comes after weeks of planning and preparation and we do it because we want to sprinkle the magic of Christmas music over some part of each and every day.

Maybe it helps to put you in a festive mood as you leave the office and head home each day, or perhaps it gets you into a holiday cookie baking spirit. Hopefully too, it helps you to remember the reason for the season.

Along with the massive collection of holiday favorites we’ll be playing over the airwaves, I’ve got a few recommendations for your personal playlists. Here’s my ‘Merry Music Musts’ for 2022:

SIA: Everyday Is Christmas

I wont stop telling you about Sia’s “Everyday Is Christmas,” until each of you have added it to your holiday music collection!

It’s a fun, whimsical album, chock-full of original music like the mega-hit “Snowman” which has over 980 million streams and is on it’s way to becoming one of the biggest holiday songs of all time! This year “Everyday is Christmas” is available for the first time on vinyl, with an Amazon exclusive Snowman White vinyl and the 5 year anniversary Deluxe album available on 11/11/22.

If I had it my way, everyday would be Christmas.

Pick up (one or more copies of) the Deluxe Edition of Everyday Is Christmas


REBA McENTIRE: The Ultimate Christmas Collection

Brand new to the Christmas music scene this year is Reba McEntire’s just released, "The Ultimate Christmas Collection”! It’s comprised of top picks from her previous Christmas releases and includes the stirring track “I Needed Christmas,” featured in the Lifetime movie “Reba McEntire’s Christmas In Tune.”

Says Reba:

“I’m excited to share this newly packaged collection of my all-time favorite Christmas songs. It was so hard to narrow down to just twelve songs, but I hope my fans enjoy this journey through time!”

I love me some Reba, and her Ultimate Christmas Collection is going to help me get through my to-do list and yours too - promise!

Get The Ultimate Christmas Collection and add it to your collection!


LAUREN DAIGLE: Behold

“Behold” by Lauren Daigle is another LP that you definitely want to get your hands on.

Lauren has a uniquely beautiful voice, and a spirit to match! She’s as delightful and she is talented, and it all comes through on the 13 tracks that make up “Behold” which also brings the reason for the season to the front of the line!

Her super fun version of “Jingle Bells” is also fabulous gift-wrapping music that I, for one, will be employing in the wee hours of Christmas morn!

Treat yourself and fill a few stockings with Behold


PENTATONIX: Holidays Around the World

Pentatonix, our favorite pop acapella group, has done it again! They’ve just released their 6th full studio Christmas album, “Holidays Around the World” and the world is going ga-ga over it!

It contains 12 tracks including  "Kid On Christmas" , ft Meghan Trainor, the new original track, "Star on Top" , "Love Came on Christmas (Joy To The World x Kumama Papa)" ft Grace Lokwa, "Last Christmas" ft  HIKAKIN & SEIKIN and the oh-so-needed"Prayers for This World".

You don’t just want it, you NEED Holidays Around the World


BACKSTREET BOYS: A Very Backstreet Christmas

It’s beginning to look a lot like a very Backstreet Christmas! The Backstreet Boys’ very first Christmas album ever is out now! “A Very Backstreet Christmas” brings the holiday cheer!

 It features numerous timeless holiday classics including “White Christmas”, “Silent Night”, “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” and “Last Christmas,” The album also features three all new original holiday songs “Christmas In New York,” “Together,” and “Happy Days.”  Exclusive formats include a 15-track CD at Target which includes two bonus tracks “Feliz Navidad” and “It’s Christmas Time Again” and limited edition red-vinyl on the group’s official store.

Backstreet Boys will continue to spread holiday cheer this year with more exciting gifts and surprises for fans in the coming weeks. In December, they will perform at five iHeart Radio Jingle Balls in major cities such as Detroit, New York City, Boston, Tampa and Miami. Stay tuned for more Christmas surprises from Backstreet Boys soon!

“A Very Backstreet Christmas” is the addition to your Christmas catalog you didn’t even know you needed, and now you can’t do without!

It’s A Very Backstreet Christmas this year!


KELLY CLARKSON: When Christmas Comes Around

Kelly Clarkson is the first artist ever to top each of Billboard’s pop, adult contemporary, country, and dance charts. And there's a sampling of each of those genre's in her holiday album, “When Christmas Comes Around.

Featuring many Christmas classics, the album also includes original co-penned tracks and duets with Chris Stapleton,and Brett Eldredge. I love the fun breakup power anthem, “Christmas Isn’t Cancelled (Just You)”, and the soaring duet with Ariana Grande, " Santa, Can’t You Hear Me”. It also includes previously released singles "Christmas Eve", "All I Want for Christmas Is You", and "Under the Mistletoe", as bonus tracks.

Don’t wait, download it today! When Christmas Comes Around


ED SHEERAN & ELTON JOHN: Merry Christmas

Know what doesn’t happen every day? Ed Sheeran and Elton John collaborations, but it did last year when they released the oh-so-holly-jolly single “Merry Christmas”!

This marked Ed Sheeran’s first Christmas recording and only the second for Elton John. They pulled out all the stops, and made this over-the-top everything Christmas the merriest it could possibly be.

Hang up the mistletoe, put up the tree, light the yule log,
and get yourself a copy of Merry Christmas


ROB THOMAS: Something About Christmas Time

Rob Thomas released his first Christmas album last year and I’ve been waiting for months to be able to start playing Something About Christmas Timeonce again.

It is a beautiful mix of the new, like “Small Town Christmas”, the old, with covers of Bryan Adams and Ray Charles recordings, and some really lovely collaborations with friends.

Here's a link to help you on your way: Something About Christmas Time

Christmas comes but once a year, and I want THIS year to be the most joyful of them all! If, like me, more “stuff” is something you can do without, get yourself and your friends, loved ones, co-workers, and everyone else on your list the gift of music instead.

I hope my ‘Merry Music Musts’ list helps you choose a few gems!

Sia's "Unstoppable" On Top Again!

Seems like the “power” in Sia's power anthem, "Unstoppable”, is in its ability to remain relevant year after year after year!

First released in 2016, Unstoppable has become one of the biggest songs in radio again this summer!

“I'm so powerful
I don't need batteries to play
I'm so confident
Yeah, I'm unstoppable today”

But it’s really no wonder. Every single one of us is fighting some kind of battle. Whether it’s facing another weary work-week, dealing with cranky kids home for the summer, or more monumental worries, with its uptempo beat and strong, relatable lyrics, Unstoppable provides an energetic encouraging soundtrack as we gather ourselves to face whatever challenges are headed our way.

DOWNLOAD/STREAM “UNSTOPPABLE”

Watch the video:

With a bit of nostalgia, a half-billion streams, and lots of radio play, Sia and her fans continue to be UNSTOPPABLE!


New Music from Chicago!

Chicago has released their first new music in eight years!

“If This Is Goodbye” is a catchy tune employing their classic pop tempos and sensational signature horns, but it’s also a wistful look back at the memories made in youthful recklessness that have lasted a lifetime - now winding to an end.

If this is goodbye / Let's take one more shot for the memories / Life's too short to be enemies / And if this ends tonight / You can save your tears for the other guys / I'll see you in another life."

It reminds us too, that though paths diverge, we should never turn our backs on those companions we traveled the first miles of life with.

This summer, Chicago will co-headline a tour with Brian Wilson, an original founder of The Beach Boys. They will also be joined by Al Jardine and Blondie Chapman.

The Summer Tour kicked off this week in Phoeniz, AZ and will hit some 40 venues all across the country until coming to a close on October 20 in Memphis, TN. It’s going to be a phenomenal show, with plenty of nostalgia and music to get you up on your feet! You can find information and dates HERE.

Loved “If This Is Goodbye”???

New Music | Mandy Moore: "In Real Life"

Mandy Moore’s much anticipated new music album is finally here! The 11-track album,“In Real Life”, releases Friday, May 13th, and I’ll be the first in line!

I spoke with Mandy while she was busy wrapping up the final episodes of “This Is Us” and simultaneously getting ready to launch this new album. You can listen to that conversation - one of the most fun I’ve had on my podcast series, LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah - HERE.

Mandy dropped several hints about her new music during our conversation. I know it came fast on the heels of 2020’s “Silver Landings” , her first new body of work in over a decade, but unfortunately the pandemic prevented her from touring and sharing that project as widely as she’d planned.

A brand new baby with husband, Taylor Goldsmith, took centerstage instead, but as opposed to burying the momentum that had been set into motion, the magic and mysteries of motherhood served to expand that creative energy, and “In Real Life” was born.

What can we expect? It’s being described as “a gloriously unpredictable sound, touched with elements of everything from jangly college-rock to cinematic synth-pop to classic singer/songwriter simplicity.

From the very first seconds of the album-opening “Real Life,” Moore fully immerses the listener in her intimate lyricism and kaleidoscopic sound.

With its elegant collision of moody guitar work, glacial synth lines, and luminous strings, the slow-burning epic captures the blissful upheaval of becoming a mother (“I spent every day/Filling every page/How the world revolved around me/When I saw your face/I knew right away/We’d be whoever we wanted to be”)…

All throughout In Real Life, Moore suffuses her lyrics with an unguarded humanity that’s undeniably tied to her philosophy as a songwriter. “To me it’s all about staying open, staying aware, staying sensitive and empathetic to the people around me,” she says. “There’s something about expressing myself through lyrics and melody that makes me feel whole, and I see it as a privilege to have that outlet. And even though this album is very specific to me and my experience—there’s songs about my baby, my husband, my father, my friends—I hope everyone’s able to see their own lives in it. I hope they’re able to come along on the journey with me, and put themselves in the driver’s seat.””

Mandy takes her new music and her extreme talent on the road this summer on a coast-to-coast tour. I know I’ll be in the crowd when she’s in my neighborhood, and I know it will be a magical experience for you too!

New Movie | The Mulligan

News Flash: THE MULLIGAN, a wonderful new family movie, is in theaters for only two nights: Monday, April 18 and Tuesday, April 19!

This inspirational movie is based on the book of the same name written by legendary leadership expert Ken Blanchard and former professional golfer Wally Armstrong. Both Ken and Wally have cameos in the movie.

THE MULLIGAN stars Eric Close (“Nashville”), Pat Boone, and Tanya Christensen (“I Still Believe”), with legendary PGA golfer Tom Lehman and hall-of-fame broadcaster Jim Nantz playing themselves.

An intensely driven businessman and golf fanatic, Paul McAlister is a success in everything—except what really matters. Like an errant tee shot, Paul’s life could use a do-over … a “mulligan.” With the help of an old golf pro, Paul hopes things will soon improve. But Paul soon discovers the Old Pro is more focused on his priorities and purpose than his pitching and putting. Whether it’s a replayed shot during a friendly round of golf, rediscovering lost priorities, or making something good of a situation gone bad, there are times we all could use a mulligan in life.

THE MULLIGAN is a beautiful reminder of the importance of second chances in our lives—mulligans.

GET TICKETS to THE MULLIGAN

Spring is the season of new beginnings - of second chances - it’s mulligan season! Take the kids, take the parents, take yourself, and go spend an evening being entertained, feeling good, and remembering what’s important!


New Movie | "Redeeming Love"

REDEEMING LOVE

I’ve long been a fan of author Francine Rivers. Her books are always meticulously researched, steeped in rich historical detail, and filled with complex, fascinating characters. Her stories are as layered and nuanced as life itself. It’s been a while now, but I have featured a few of them as my monthly Book Club choices.

One of her most beloved novels, REDEEMING LOVE, has recently been made into a major motion picture, and I hope you’ll all be going to see it when it’s released by Pinnacle Peak Pictures later this month.

REDEEMING LOVE is a skillful retelling of the biblical love story of Gomer and Hosea in a setting that America has long romanticized, the Old West. It’s been called “a powerful story of relentless love and perseverance as a young couple’s relationship clashes with the harsh realities of the California Gold Rush of 1850” . It stars Abigail Cowen, Tom Lewis and Logan Marshall-Green.

Coming to theaters January 21, 2022, REDEEMING LOVE shows there is no brokenness that love can’t heal.

Life made them underdogs. Faith made them champions. From Kingdom Story Company and The Erwin Brothers — the directors of I CAN ONLY IMAGINE — comes AMERICAN UNDERDOG, based on the inspirational true story of Kurt and Brenda Warner.

Undrafted as a quarterback out of college, Kurt found himself stocking shelves in a grocery store to help support Brenda and her two kids, all while trying to hold onto his fading dream of becoming an NFL quarterback. That dream was realized when he was signed by the St. Lousi Rams in 1998.

In the following years, he would become a two-time NFL MVP, a Super Bowl champion, and Hall of Fame quarterback. American Underdog, allows you to experience all the highs, lows, victories and defeats Kurt and Brenda shared. It hits theaters on December 25th.

The film sports an MVP cast, starring Zackary Levi, as Kurt, Anna Paquin, as Brenda, Dennis Quaid, as Dick Vermeil, Chance Kelly, as Mike Martz, and Hayden Zaller, as Zack Warner.

I’s a story synonymous with hope, and the knowledge that with hard work, perseverance, faith - and family - our dreams are never out of reach.

Opening in theaters on Christmas Day, it's a football movie, it's a romance movie, it's a movie sure to inspire the dreamer in all of us! Take the family, get a big bucket of popcorn, and get in the game!

New Movie | "Christmas with The Chosen - The Messengers"

A little over a year ago I discovered “The Chosen”, the first-ever multi-season television series about the life of Christ. A FREE television show, watched all over the world by tens of millions of people.

I was so enthralled, transfixed, mesmerized, by this story of “A charismatic fisherman drowning in debt. A troubled woman wrestling with real demons. A gifted publican…” that I reached out to writer/producer/director Dallas Jenkins and begged him to spend a little time with me on my podcast series, “LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah”. And he did! We had an amazing conversation, raising him to yet greater heights in my esteem (if that was even possible!)

Now Dallas and The Chosen team are bringing us a remarkable Christmas gift, a big-screen episode entitled, Christmas with The Chosen - The Messengers.

In theaters beginning December 1 (in most by December 10), reserve your tickets and experience the birth of Jesus Christ through the eyes of Mary and Joseph. What a wonderful way to launch the Christmas season, immersing yourself in the actual reason FOR the season!

There is also an extraordinary lineup of musicians performing both new and classic Christmas songs from the set of The Chosen, including: Phil Wickham, For King & Country, Brandon Lake, Maverick City Music, Cain, Matt Maher, Bryan & Katie Torwalt, Jordan Feliz, We The Kingdom, The Bonner Family, Leanna Crawford, Dawson Hollow, and One Voice Choir. 

This is the perfect opportunity to bring friends and family, including those who haven’t seen The Chosen, for a unique Christmas experience.

More information can be found HERE, including how to get group tickets, how to rent out an entire screen, and how to host a screening in your church or community.

I was able to sit down with Norah for a long lovely chat that you can listen to on my podcast, LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah. We both profess our love for Christmas music all year long, and we talk about our favorites from the album. “Christmas Calling” was the single released ahead of the album and Norah confesses that of all the new music, she has a particular fondness for this one. I have my own favorite - you’ll have to listen to the podcast to find out which it is. (But let me say, I see MANY dedications in it’s future!)

While the album is imbued with the mellow, melancholy sound of Norah, it’s also warm, welcoming, and brimming with belief in all that is good and hopeful. The best news? It’s available RIGHT NOW!

I have fun seeking out the perfect gifts to add to my 12 Stockings of Christmas Sweepstakes each year - I’m so happy to be adding autographed copies of Brett Young’s, “Brett Young & Friends Sing the Christmas Classics”, to the mix.

This is Brett’s first holiday album, and he’s gathered a star-studded lineup of collaborators including Colbie Caillat, Darius Rucker, and Maddie & Tae, to help him celebrate the spirit of the season.

The eight-track collection of classics is sure to bring everyone on your list lots of yuletide cheer! Songs include “White Christmas”, with Caillat, “Let it Snow, Let It Snow, Let it Snow”, with Maddie & Tae, and Brett’s own unique rendition of “Silver Bells”.

Fans will have the chance to experience the album on the CMT Christmas Crossroads event, “Brett Young and Friends”, airing on CMT in December. You can check local listings for times.

The album feels like home, and it is a great addition to your Christmas music collection!

BRETT YOUNG & FRIENDS SING THE CHRISTMAS CLASSICS


My 12 Stockings of Christmas Sweepstakes is about sharing wonderful discoveries. One this year is Fishpatrick’s, fresh, flavorful albacore tuna from my hometown on the Oregon Coast! Each of my gift packs will include a sampling of their 4 fabulous flavors!

“Fishpatrick” has been a fisherman and respected business owner for over 20 years. He and his family are known for providing great customer service and for their product’s top-quality flavor and freshness! Fishpatrick’s canned albacore is a specialty gourmet food that you and your family are going to love as much as me and mine!

They offer 4 canned albacore products. Salt Free, Sea Salt Added, Garlic Jalapeño, and Smoked. Salt Free is simply a nice chunk of albacore in the can, (no water or oil is ever added to any of their BPA-free cans.) Sea Salt Added has a small pinch for a hint of additional flavor. Garlic Jalapeño is very mild with a dash of sea salt, granulated garlic, and fresh jalapeño. And the Smoked is marinated with kosher salt, brown sugar and spices, then lightly kippered with kiln dried alder.

It all comes directly from the fisherman to you for the best price and the best quality. Purchase a gift pack, or buy it by the case to enjoy all year long. (Make sure to share with appreciative family and friends!)

FISHPATRICK’S


I love tea and the calm, soothing feeling that comes with every sip, so I’m welcoming Bigelow Tea back into my 12 Stockings of Christmas gift package with a generous sampling of their wonderful brews!

I’m sure you know Bigelow from their signature blend, “Constant Comment”, the original recipe that started it all. To this day it’s blended only by someone with the Bigelow last name and remains a closely guarded family secret. Cindi Bigelow, third generation President and CEO, joined me recently on my podcast series, and shared the fascinating Bigelow story - Listen In!

Bigelow has expanded far beyond their original recipe and now produces an abundance of flavorful blends. Their Bigelow Benefits is a wonderful line of teas that support everyday wellness, body and mind. Benefits features blends like Lemon & Echinacea, supporting the immune system, and Lavender & Chamomile, to help with sleep. With many delicious flavors, Benefits uplift, relax, and help reduce stress. There’s a perfect cup for any time of day.

Staying hydrated this holiday season is important too! Try the new Bigelow Botanicals Cold Water Infusion, it’s a new way to love your water. Flavors like Watermelon Cucumber Mint infuse in cold water, for a simple and refreshing way to achieve daily hydration. Zero calories. No artificial anything.

I could go on and on; I think Bigelow has a tea for everything!

BIGELOW TEAS


My 12 Stockings of Christmas just aren’t complete until I’ve added my favorite candy, Almond ROCA, the sweetest gift of all! Almond ROCA is the Christmas candy of my youth, and I believe every Christmas stocking should include some of those classic gold-foil-wrapped pieces - so I’ll be sure to add more than a few to the 12 I’m giving away!

Every batch is made with rich creamy butter, California almonds, and the best quality chocolate! The ROCA selection is large! Almond, Cashew, Dark Chocolate, Sea Salt Caramel, Peppermint, and Mocha - They’ve even added Extra Dark ROCA, to their list of sweet treats.

I love giving and getting Brown & Haley confections the whole year through. Everyone should try the new ROCA bites that come in several delectable flavors. They’re just the right size to slip into those holiday stockings that have been hung by the chimney with care. (And to carry with you for some self-indulgence while out running holiday errands.)

Brighten someone’s day with the gift of Almond ROCA. Visit them online or find them at all your local retailers.

ALMOND ROCA

Remember, be listening to my radio program, and when you hear the KEY WORD for each of my 12 Stockings gifts, text it to 48484 or enter it [HERE], for an opportunity at winning one of these 12 bundles of gifts.

Good luck!

Christmas Music Musts!

One of the most exciting things about this time of year is the great selection of new holiday music releases!

We “flip the switch” on the Delilah radio program to all-Christmas programming earlier than most because I love the magical mood that Christmas music creates!

It’s the infusion of new music each year that makes our programming a fresh and welcome sound coming over the airwaves and spilling into your cars, your offices, and your homes, becoming a soundtrack to the memories you’re creating with co-workers, friends, and family.

And this year there are several albums full of fabulous additions to my playlist! I like to call them my “Christmas Music MUSTS,” that I just can’t wait to tell you about!

Kelly Clarkson is the first artist ever to top each of Billboard’s pop, adult contemporary, country, and dance charts. And there's a sampling of each of those genre's in her new album, “When Christmas Comes Around.

The fun single"Christmas Isn't Canceled (Just You)"  is an empowering anthem to all those who refuse to give in to remorse or regret after a breakup, but instead look toward the future with hope and happiness in their heart (even if their stockings are empty on Christmas Day!)

"We are probably all in very different places emotionally ‘when Christmas comes around.’ Some consumed with a new love, some reminded of loss, some with optimism, others for much deserved time away from the chaos our work lives can sometimes bring us. I wanted everyone to be able to connect to a message on this album. While change can be unpredictable there is no better time of year to breathe hope into one’s life and let possibility wander.” ~ Kelly Clarkson

If you haven't downloaded it yet, you shouldn’t wait a second longer!
Find it here: When Christmas Comes Around

Rob Thomas has given yourself and someone like you (see what I did there?) a fun little gift this year, his first-ever Christmas album, Something About Christmas Time.”

Rob put a lot of thought into this 10-track compilation. It is a beautiful mix of new, like “Small Town Christmas” inspired by the picturesque community he and his wife live in north of New York City, old, with covers of Bryan Adams and Ray Charles recordings, as well as some lovely collaborations with friends; pop sensation, Ingrid Michaelson, gospel star, Bebe Winans, and country legend, Brad Paisley.

As the host of a dedication show, I appreciate that not every track is what you’d call “happy.” Christmas brings about the full range of emotions, and Rob’s new album speaks to them all. You can listen to Rob and I chatting about “Something About Christmas” and all kinds of other random topics on an upcoming December podcast episode!

The album dropped in October, and is available wherever you get your music!
Here's a link to help you on your way: Something About Christmas Time

Know who else is supplying a whole new album’s worth of holiday happiness? Pentatonix! With the release of their 6th holiday themed album, “Evergreen”.

The beloved a cappella quintet has become practically synonymous with Christmas on the Delilah radio show, and I can’t wait to add their new tracks to my merry musical mix! “The Prayer” nearly brought me to my knees, as it will you, and "It’s Been a Long, Long Time", seems long, long overdue. (Yes, it’s THAT good!) The deluxe album contains a whopping 14 new tracks that we’ll all be playing on repeat!

4 of the 5 members joined me on my podcast LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah earlier this year. It was an incredible opportunity to get to know these amazing individuals whose blended voices give us the gift of the unique Pentatonix sound - so be sure to listen in.

Get your copy and several more to share here: Evergreen
(And take the opportunity to watch the video for “The Prayer”!)

“Behold.” The name along conjures great joy and anticipation, and everything on this rich album by Lauren Daigle meets those expectations.

Lauren and I were able to sit down and chat recently and we had the greatest conversation about life, faith, growth, and MUSIC. (Listen HERE) She infuses each song she performs with her love for the Lord and that unbridled joy is passed on to us as we listen.

“Behold” is a collection of 13 tracks that remind us of the reason for the season. You’ll want to pay close attention to the powerful “Light of the World”, her fun and jazzy version of “Jingle Bells”, and her unique rendition of “What Child is This”. 

Treat yourself and fill a few stockings with Behold
Then spend a moment watching the album trailer & the “Jingle Bells” video.

I love to kick off my Christmas play list with “Everyday Is Christmas,” from the oh-so-talented SIA!

It’s a fun, whimsical album, chock-full of original music like the mega-hit “Snowman” which has over 500 million streams! This year “Everyday is Christmas” is being produces as a deluxe edition with 3 new bonus tracks including the fresh “Santa Visits Everyone ,“ a fun new “Snowman” remix, and a cover of Perry Como's "Round & Round".

If I had it my way, everyday would be Christmas.
Pick up the new Deluxe Edition here: Everyday is Christmas

We fell in love with all that is Darren Criss (multitalented musician, songwriter, stage & screen actor) through his various roles in Glee, Versace: American Crime Story, Hollywood, and others… and yet I’ve just found a whole new reason to sing his praises; his first full length album, “A Very Darren Crissmas.”

It features original songs, creative re-imaginings of classic tunes, and rarely covered hidden gems - plus guest appearances by Adam Lambert, Evan Rachel Wood and Lainey Wilson! It’s a remarkable collection of tracks curated with the dual purpose of connection - those with personal significance - and consideration - those that make you think twice.

Whatever his process, he had me at “I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas,” a looooong time favorite since way back when my children (who now have children) were small.

Having a merry little Christmas is all but guaranteed
when you get your copy of A Very Darren Crissmas

Farewell December” is a full LP of festive favorites released by singer-songwriter, Matt Nathanson.

It’s a 12-track set that delivers the homey blend of rock, folk, and pop the guy who brought us the platinum single, “Come On Get Higher” is known for. Matt has a unique way of connecting with his audiences when performing live, and the same authenticity is felt through his recordings.

I want to be the one he’s singing “Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)” to, and when I get there, I hope he serenades me with his cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River.” He also takes on “Blue Christmas” , “I Believe in Father Christmas”, and “Little Drummer Boy” featuring Donovan Woods, and several others that will get you into the spirit!

After downloading this LP, you won’t want to say Farewell December

On Friday, November 5, superstar, award-winning artists, Mariah Carey, Khalid and Kirk Franklin, debuted their new single, “Fall in Love at Christmas”!

The R&B and Gospel infused ballad, promising to be a new holiday classic, arrives just in time for the season. and is streaming on all digital platforms. The three artists also premiered the video for “Fall in Love at Christmas”; filmed at Carey’s home and the Butterfly Lounge in LA, and featuring her twins, Monroe and Moroccan, evoking the warm and loving spirit of the holidays.

Mariah will continue celebrating the season with a new holiday event on Apple TV+ in December, featuring the first and only exclusive performance of “Fall in Love at Christmas” with Carey, Khalid and Franklin.

There may be no new romance for me, but I know I’ll still

There’s no such thing as “enough” Christmas music! I get so giddy each autumn as new holiday albums and singles start falling like snowflakes… each one unique and magical, becoming part of a larger chorus of praise and celebration.

These are some of the best and you’ll want to get them before you set out to capture the perfect Christmas tree or take your first sip of eggnog!

New Movies You'll Fall For!

Family, faith, and fistfuls of popcorn is going to be just ticket this fall! Get in on the good stuff when you cozy up to watch one - or all three - of these fabulous new movies coming your way!


Show Me The Father

thumbnail_ShowMeTheFather-Profile.png

The Kendrick brothers are the team that brought us War Room, Courageous, and Fireproof, and now they've created an amazing documentary about fatherhood, featuring five true father stories, all from totally different perspectives.

Show Me The Father deals with the universal issues of fatherhood. Whether your earthly father was someone to look up to and admire, someone to run from and fear, someone you never really knew emotionally, or never even met... your unique father story has a profound effect on the way you view the world and often the direction that your life takes.

This dynamic documentary involves Alex Kendrick, Stephen Kendrick, Deland McCullough, Jim Daly, Eddie George, Jill Kendrick, Jonathan Evans and Tony Evans.

Show Me The Father provides a fresh perspective on the roles of fathers in today's society. It will help you to see that your earthly father story can be redeemed for good, and you will come away empowered and inspired.

In theaters Now!
Watch the trailer HERE.


COURAGEOUS Legacy

courageous.jpeg

As a mother of a police officer, who is also an incredible father of four, this film truly touched my heart.

This is a 10th Anniversary re-release of the Kendrick Brother’s film, COURAGEOUS Legacy, and is another must-see. Celebrating 10 years of impact on families and fathers, the updated version of the film includes new scenes and an enhanced look and sound.

“Four men, one calling: To serve and protect. As law enforcement officers, they are confident and focused. Yet at the end of the day, they face a challenge that none of them are truly prepared to tackle: fatherhood. While they consistently give their best on the job, good enough seems to be all they can muster as dads. When tragedy hits home, they are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, their faith, and their fathering. Can a newfound urgency help these dads draw closer to God ... and to their children?”

I laughed, cried, and cheered these guys along as they struggled to find their footing - not on the force, which they seemed to have well in-hand, but in their role as fathers, one of the most courageous positions to find oneself in. I know you’ll be right there with me when you visit theaters this September.

In theaters September 24th
WATCH the trailer HERE.


The Jesus Music

TJM.jpeg

Contemporary Christian Music is as mainstream and available now as any other genre, but that is a fairly new phenomenon.

The Jesus Music, a dynamic documentary, unfolds the whole story, from it’s humble beginnings at the Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, California, and up through it’s many fits and starts, to become today what is recognized and celebrated as a multi-billion-dollar industry.

The film features some of my favorite artists, and people! Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Toby Mac, Lauren Daigle, Bart Millard, Joel Smallbone… and so many others who have dedicated their lives and their art to making music that unites people and honors God.

As Amy says, “A lot of hymns are close your eyes, singing to God. I wanted to sing with my eyes wide open, singing to each other.”

From the creators of I Can Only Imagine, comes The Jesus Music! If you love music (and who doesn’t?), you’ll love this magnificent musical film!

In theaters October 1st

Music Notes | Lauren Daigle & ABBA

Screen Shot 2021-09-08 at 1.30.13 PM.png

There’s a couple of music notes that I’m super excited to share with you this month!

A new inspirational single, “Hold On To Me", from Lauren Daigle, and an entire album we’ve been waiting almost 40 years for - “Voyage” from Swedish pop stars, ABBA!

Both have me excited for entirely different reasons. The first is from a young, fresh artist that provides inspiration for today, and gives me hope for our future. The second is from a well-seasoned much-beloved quartet that created much of the soundtrack of my youth. Their unique sound floods me with memories while their new music reminds me there’s no better time than RIGHT NOW to be doing what we love to do.

I’m so happy that both Lauren and ABBA love making music that makes people feel good!


LD.jpeg

The enchanting Ms. Lauren Daigle has an inspirational new single out, "Hold On To Me". It is, like all of Lauren's work, beautiful, powerful, and illuminating - just what we need to hear when we find ourselves in a dark place.

HOTM3.png

Each room within the official video is connected to different causes that the charitable organization she founded, The Price Fund, has partnered with and will be raising funds for.

"This song is about the person who feels lonely, the person who feels defeated ... It's a song to remind people that hope is around."

I had the delightful experience of chatting with Lauren recently on my podcast, LOVE SOMEONE. If you love Lauren's music, you are in for a big big treat with this episode, where she shares her life and her heart with us! Listen HERE.

You’ll need these links!


abba-avatars-press-2021-696x442.jpeg

Here’s some great news almost 40 years in the making! ABBA, the beloved group that sold over 400 million records and had 20 top hits on Billboard (like “Mama Mia", “Dancing Queen”, & “S.O.S.” ) is back with a brand new album, “Voyager”.

VOYAGE.jpeg

They recently surprised millions of fans with the release of two new songs, “I Still Have Faith In You”, and “Don’t Shut Me Down”, both of which are available right now… And then they shocked us all with the news of an entirely new album, “Voyage”!

“Voyage,” the Swedish group’s ninth studio album, contains 10 tracks in all. It is set to release on November 5th and is available for pre-order now!!!

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha) there is nothing we can do… but join Agnetha, Björn, Benny, and Anni-Fridpre on the out-of-this-world “Voyage” they’re about to embark upon!

Here’s some links to get you started!

DeVon Franklin | "Live Free: Exceed Your Highest Expectations"

I’ve been a big big fan of all things DeVon Franklin for a long while now. That’s why I can heartily recommend his new book, “LIVE FREE: Exceed Your Highest Expectations.”

thumbnail_LiveFree_HC_final.jpg

As you may already know, DeVon Franklin is an award-winning film producer, NYT bestselling author, and motivational speaker. He was a guest on my podcast, LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, along with another one of my favorite people, Chrissy Metz, after directing the heartwarming, faith affirming, film, BREAKTHROUGH. And before that, I was fortunate to have a small, (ok tiny… ok, teeny tiny) speaking part in THE STAR the sweet animated film he also directed.

DeVon is committed to uplifting global communities through entertainment and has leveraged his 20-year Hollywood career and experiences to become a leading authority on inspirational personal and professional development with millions of followers worldwide. Perhaps this is why Variety Magazine named him one of the "Top 10 Producers to Watch,"

DeVon is also the author of multiple bestselling books including THE TRUTH ABOUT MEN, THE SUCCESS COMMANDMENTS, THE WAIT (co-written with his wife, award-winning actress Meagan Good) and PRODUCED BY FAITH.

His highly anticipated fifth book, LIVE FREE: Exceed Your Highest Expectations was just released this month!

He helps teach us how to live free from unnecessary stress and anxiety and lead happier lives by learning to set our own expectations rather than accepting those imposed upon us.

Everything DeVon touches is full of lessons and wonderful advise helping us live more joyful lives. This one will be on my night stand for a long time to come. I want you all to get a copy, and heed the advice he sets forth within! I can assure you that any advice DeVon has to offer is positive, powerful, and empowering, and nothing but good things will come of you following it.

Music Notes | Tim McGraw & Carrie Underwood

Screen Shot 2021-04-09 at 10.16.21 AM.png

Sharing music with you is one of my greatest joys. This month I have the pleasure of introducing you to two wonderful new projects I think you’ll be excited about.

Each of these multi-talented writers and recording artists have joined me on my podcast, each are truly gifted and giving individuals, and each have hearts that match the radiance of their smiles.

Three-time GRAMMY® winner and country superstar Tim McGraw has two digital deluxe versions of his #1 album HERE ON EARTH: HERE ON EARTH Ultimate Edition & HERE ON EARTH Ultimate Video Edition available TODAY, April 16!

Screen Shot 2021-04-09 at 10.01.54 AM.png

The Ultimate Edition features six new tracks, including “Undivided,” McGraw’s latest collaboration with Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard, and two additional bonus movie tracks: “Keep Your Eyes on Me” with Faith Hill from the 2017 feature film The Shack , and “Gravity” from the 2018 OSCAR winning documentary "Free Solo."

The Ultimate Video Edition will include all tracks on the Ultimate Edition with the addition of videos for six songs: “Here on Earth,” “I Called Mama,” “Gravy,” “Undivided,” “Thought About You,” and “Neon Church.”

Both albums are available today HERE.
Listen to my podcast with Tim HERE.

(Additionally, a special edition 12” vinyl of “Undivided” will be available on June 12 for Record Store Day.
An acoustic version of McGraw’s hit single “I Called Mama” – originally released in May 2020 – will be on the B-side of the vinyl. The song has continued to serve as a reminder of the importance of home and human connection, especially in the toughest of times.)


Seven-time GRAMMY® winner and three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year Carrie Underwood, recently released her new album, My Savior, debuting at #1 across the Country and Christian charts.

My Savior consists of covers of some of Carrie’s favorite traditional gospel hymns in a unique pastiche of musical styles from classic country to folk, bluegrass, and gospel.  The album is available digitally and on CD now, and will be available on vinyl April 30.  

Carrie-underwood-my-savior.jpeg

Carrie says, “This is an album I have always wanted to record and I’m thrilled to be able to bring these uplifting, inspirational songs to life in this special way” . 

 She goes on to say, “When I set out to choose these songs, I wanted to include the beautiful, familiar hymns I grew up singing in church,” says Underwood.  “There are several songs I have performed in the past, like ‘Softly And Tenderly,’ ‘How Great Thou Art’ and ‘Amazing Grace’ that mean so much to me and I knew immediately we needed to record for the album.  This music shaped who I am as a person and is the foundation of my career as a recording artist.  I feel so blessed to get to share these songs with generations of people who love them as I do, as well as others who might be experiencing them for the first time.”  

Here’s the order LINK.
Listen to my podcast episode with Carrie HERE

(My Savior CD, vinyl, and limited-edition t-shirt/CD boxsets are available Here. )


I hope everyone’s spring season is off to a wonderful start. It’s the time of new beginnings and second chances, of reminders that light will always defeat the dark, and of course, the perfect time for music.

New Movie | YES DAY

preview.jpg

Do you have kids at home? I mean AT HOME, like so many do right now, with most schools in the country still using a distance or hybrid model of teaching…

If the answer is YES, you’re probably somewhat familiar with the feeling that you’re always in the position of saying NO! No, you can’t have friends over. No, you can’t eat on the couch. No, No, No! If that sounds and feels and familiar, you’ve got something in common with film parents, Allison and Carlos.

Screen Shot 2021-03-09 at 5.30.36 PM.png

But would you give your kids a “Yes Day” - where THEY get to make the rules for the next 24 hours?

Jennifer Garner, who stars in YES DAY, said she would, has, and will do so again!

A fan of Amy Krouse Rosenthal’s books, she and middle daughter fell in love with the book, Yes Day! many years ago. Her daughter asked for a ‘Yes Day’ for Christmas and this fabulous mom delivered, and has continued the tradition every year since.

They’ve had so much fun with it, Jennifer wanted to bring it to the big screen, and we’re so lucky that she did!

YES DAY releases globally on Netflix today March 12.

Screen Shot 2021-03-09 at 5.31.07 PM.png

It stars Jennifer Garner, Edgar Ramírez, Jenna Ortega, Julian Lerner and Everly Carganilla, as a family who said YES, kicking off a whirlwind adventure around Los Angeles that brought them closer to each other than ever before.

Say yes to YES DAY and join this fun-loving family on their wild ride! (And then make an effort to say Yes more often. Our kids have had to give up so much lately, they more Yes! in their lives!!)
