Hilary's been featured on numerous compilation albums and has been the recipient of multiple awards presented from the Faith Centered Music Association. "Breaking the top ten on the Christian Billboard Charts for a second time is an exciting surprise! For me, the most important word in the prior sentence is 'Christian.' It has only been in the last two years that I've been able to say that I charted on Billboard, but I've always been able to declare I am a Christian," explains Hilary.

Delivering music with a rare combination of assuredness and tenderness is one of Hilary's strengths as an artist. Pulling from life experiences, inspiring lyrics and a stellar voice; every song on the album reminds us that we can make a difference no matter where we are in life.

Bob Ahlander, Director of Shadow Mountain Records, was excited to hear the news. "We are ecstatic!" Ahlander said. "For her to achieve this a second time shows just how strong her fan base is and how well her music connects with people of faith. We couldn't be happier for her."

In addition to the CD, the album is available as a digital download on iTunes.
