The Altar and the Door

Description

Despite Casting Crowns' successful records they are still the same down-to-earth people with ministry at the heart of what they do, both on the road and in their local churches.
Casting Crowns' third album, 'The Altar And The Door' draws on this first-hand ministry experience with real people, real-life struggle and the faith that overcomes.
"At the altar everything makes sense" says Mark Hall, lead singer. "When we're in the church and spending time with God we know what we're supposed to do and how to live. Everything is black and white. But somewhere between the altar and the door, when we leave and go out into our lives, it all leaks out. Everything gets grey again. It's like we have these two lives and the Christian life is the journey between the altar and the door... Trying to get the things you've got in your head into your hands, into your feet, into your life. This album is all about that journey of realisation, the struggles we encounter and the victory of seeing it as possible."
