This Oaklahoma-based singer/songwriter has been involved in ministry since she was a kid. Writing her first songs at 18, Jenny is focused very strongly on ministry and this CD of songs aims to give the listener the opportunity to be touched by her songs long after the concert spotlight has faded. Blessed with a distinctive, powerful voice and a heart to communicate, this is a top quality independent effort and sounds every bit as accomplished as those CCM artists you see in your local bookshop. Her passionate voice brings out all the emotions of her songs from the poppier end with the breezy, catchy "You In Me" and " Consume Me" through to the soulful excellence of "Put Me Back Together" and the gorgeous closing acoustic "I Will Sing". Along the way she touches on dance beats on "Grace" and even a little bluesy feel for her portrait of Christ on "Legend". Jenny Wheeler's big voice, insightful songs and polished CCM production make this an album to check out.
