May 11, 2025 Episode 33 - I Want to Feel
The yearnings we all feel for a heartfelt connection to the Spirit can be bittersweet.
When we feel connected, they elevate us and allow us to draw closer to the powers
of Heaven. When we feel separated from divine influence, our spirits long to be
reunited with the source of pure joy and lasting comfort.

May 04, 2025 Episode 32 - It is Well With My Soul
This classic Christian hymn originates from a heart-breaking story of tragedy and
overcoming trials. Horatio Spafford, a late nineteenth-century businessman whose
children were lost on a trans-Atlantic voyage, penned the heartfelt lyrics to this song,
an anthem to faith and resilience in the face of adversity. His words resonate today,
and his family’s commitment to service and purpose are an ongoing legacy.

April 27, 2025 Episode 31 - Welcome Change
There are some non-traditional, quirky (at least for Afterglow!) elements to this song,
a light-hearted reminder to all of us to be open to the twists and turns that life
sometimes delivers to us, and maybe more importantly, to trust that the Lord’s plan
for us is always better, more inspired, and more elevating than what we might have
had in mind. The goal is to see and welcome the changes that come our way as
opportunities to grow and draw nearer to our Heavenly Father by humbly submitting
to His will.

April 20, 2025 Episode 30 - If Only
This song, written by Joel many years ago, is a plaintive cry , a hope that all of us
can better understand the great gift of the Atonement of Jesus Christ, and the
transformative blessings it can bring to each of our lives. If only we fully understood
His sacrifice for us, there would be nothing we wouldn’t be willing to do to bring Him
more completely into our lives.

April 14, 2025 Episode 29 - Evening Prayer
We have done only a few acapella recordings, but for this song, a musical prayer at
the end of the day, it just seemed right. Simple and plain, this is both an expression
of gratitude for our many blessings, and a plea to help us stay on the covenant path
and serve and love those around us.

In these days of trial and challenge, our prophet has emphasized the need for each of us to gain our own witness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Through sincere prayer and a consistent study of His words, the Holy Ghost will testify to our hearts the knowledge of the truth, which in turn brings joy and a desire to serve and share with others.

HIs ability to lift us, helps to turn our weaknesses into strengths.

March 23, 2025 Episode 26 - The Nashville Experience
We were blessed to be able to record two albums of country music in Nashville,
which represented a huge opportunity for us. We wrote a few original songs, and
gathered some of the best music we could find from other writers, both at home in
Utah and in the Nashville community, to create Close to Home and No Love Lost.
The experience of working with such talented people and learning to work in another
genre of music was an unforgettable memory.

March 16, 2025 Episode 25 - The Love Song Experiment
As experiments go, this one turned out to be a fun success! In the 1980s, we turned
our attention to writing and recording two collections of original songs dealing with
love and family. These two albums, It Takes Love and Love Notes, recorded in Salt
Lake City and Los Angeles, gave us the opportunity to work with talented musicians
and arrangers, and open up our musical horizons in new and different ways.
