"The Real Thing" CD Review

"The Real Thing " is a new CD by Shannon Perry, a Christian singer, songwriter and speaker. This CD gave voice to many disappointments and triumphs that Shannon has experienced over the years. This ex-school teacher minces no words or feelings as she shares her life experiences through songs and through her "If the Shoe Fits" conferences. She finds that women especially relate to her journey, especially through songs like "Bad Hair Day" from this CD.

Shannon Perry earned her Master's Degree in Education, with an emphasis on Counseling. She was a public school teacher for over 14 years, then went into full-time ministry. She has recorded several albums, even performing with the Houston Symphony and at Carnegie Hall. She is a contributing writer for Crosswalk.com and WestSideStory.net, host of Grace in High Heels radio show on BlogTalkRadio.com, and she is the head of a national women's conference "If The Shoes Fit", which supports Dress For Success (a charitable organization that provides suits, career development and support to women entering the workforce who can't afford it on their own).

Her CD, The Real Thing, features songs that tie into the theme of her conferences, which are targeted towards women. The conferences include bible studies, small group gatherings, and now she has begun them specifically for tweens/teens, called "Don't Flip-Flop in your Walk with Jesus". And if all that activity wasn't enough, she is working on a book, If The Shoe Fits.

My Opinion

I am a big fan of great Christian music and I am so happy to add this CD to my collection! Shannon is really down to earth with her songs and she talks about subjects that all of us women can relate to in our daily lives and reminds us that God is here for us and will guide us through everything!

Her songs were very comforting and uplifted my day everytime I turned it on! I played the CD over and over and loved it more and more each time

I recommend "The Real Thing" CD to all people - especially Christian women. She sings about real subjects that we can all relate to and reminds us to look up at the cross and remember what our Savior did for us!

Pros: great songs with a great message, catchy and fun to listen to

Cons: Not one bad thing to say about this CD!
