This song is a call to prayer, patriotism, courage, faith, and boldness for all Americans to speak out against the corruption and blatant overreach that is happening in our government, mainstream media, and big tech/pharma corporations. An entire nation is waiting, watching, and asking the same question that is deep in your heart even as you read this. It is time to stand up and speak out.

Great reminder for a Sunday morning.
Don’t let the “woke” church tell you that being a Christian never involves any sort of conflict, or drawing a line in the sand. On the flip side, don’t be the kind of contentious believer that is always going and looking for a fight, stirring up trouble out of pride.
“Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.”

We need a revival in this country. We have fallen to far and now it is so fast. I heard a quote yesterday that is so true. “What one generation tolerates the next generation embraces”. Made me think of all the things the silent majority was silent about and now look where we are. It’s time to stop being silent.

Wow. My husband showed me this and I swore up and down it was photoshopped. He said nope, he first saw it back in the 90’s. I had to stare at it awhile to see him.

Just a side note, this is not a photo of my husband. I meant he said he saw this photo back in the 90s, it has been around awhile. I have no idea who this is, or where it is.

That one time I pulled out my phone to take a picture of how green everything was and accidentally caught a couple lightening bolts in the frame. I didn’t realize it until later when I was looking at them all. It’s no wonder my favorite color has always been green. Swipe left to see a second picture. ⛈⚡️☔️

Thank you Bro Fred! Wow!! What a thing to daydream about! To even pretend to imagine that my music (a mama of 5 in the middle of nowhere) might ever possibly be heard by the incredible Allison Krauss or even anyone close to her! Made my day!! Thank you and give my regards to Emma for taking the time to listen! Thanks again Bro Fred! Y’all have a great weekend over that way! 🙌🏻

@RhodaMusicOfficial You have a great weekend also. Sister Emma lost her husband last year. He was our pastor. You probably already heard his music on our website by now.

@WildernessMinistry I did and I was shocked at how good he was. He had a real gift. I’m sorry. I didn’t realize he passed away just last year. That is such a huge sorrow for a church to lose their pastor... and a pastor’s wife to lose her rock. My deepest condolences to you all. Praying God carries you all through these difficult and u certain times.

I wrote this song 23 years ago, and then put it on the shelf (along with all of my music) when I started dealing with "life". I didn't pull my music back out for over two decades, until I had a scary stint with melanoma. I felt God telling me it was time to do what He had made me to do and to stop running from it. I made a huge step out on faith 2 years ago and pulled my guitar back out, singing in front of others for the first time again, after so long, slowly dipping my toes in by making some online videos. I had a very old friend, who remembered this song, find me on FB, and asked me to please record it again for her. I did, and what happened next surprised me. People responded in huge numbers, sending stories of how God was using it in their lives. People really connect with this song and everywhere I go, it is the one song people always request. It is the story of the woman at the well in John chapter 4. Blessings! #rhodamusicoffical #waterpot

My cover version of Lauren Daigle’s song, Trust in You. Yes, our log cabin is about 400 square feet, so sometimes, I have to go record out in the camper. 😁 it works good until it’s below zero out. 😄🥶

Looking forward to a busy season of milling lumber and constructing some out buildings here on our homestead this summer. Probably going to have to use this amazing old gem on some of them, before our new bandsaw arrives. Alaskans... can you feel Spring in the air?! I mean, look past the single digit temps the last many months and remind yourself SIX WEEKS and it’s summer!!!!! 🥳🌱☀️

Worth an echo 👏🏻
Worth an echo. The beautiful thing about all of this craziness is that it is causing a true great awakening, the world over. Everywhere people are watching their God-given rights be stripped away and told they must do so in silence. Everywhere people have had enough and are starting to push back and cry out. God embolden, strengthen, protect, and help the people across this world who are standing up for what is right, true, and good. Protect us. Lead us. Provide for us. Give us wisdom and discernment. Remind us of who we are, of Who lives within us. Let us never be confused or discouraged... we serve the God who breathed out the heavens and hung every star in place.

Wow beautiful river

It’s a very special river to us. To many Alaskans. It’s the beautiful Copper River... where the world-wide famous Copper River red salmon come from. There are lots of places to dipnet up and down the river, but it’s ridiculously dangerous... especially where my husband goes, miles back via ATV, deep in the canyon. Mountain walls of shale and rock that plunge straight down into the river that is full of silt and swiftly running. It’s a well known fact around here that what goes into the Copper River, never comes out. It’s an annual pilgrimage and one I pray over probably more than anything else he does. We keep camp at the river downstream, bite our nails and pray, and wait anxiously without any phone signal, while he does the hard work all night and comes back the next morning. This is one of the sunrises he caught.

We still have lots of snow and temps in the single digits here right now. As much as I love the ice, wind, and snow... I start reminiscing about warm, sunny summer days-gone-by, about this time every year. Going to share a few favorites I took of last summer. Can’t wait to drink coffee on the porch swing again in the early mornings, dig in the dirt, and go fishing. It’s on its way! #alaska #summer #rhoda #rhodamusicofficial #TBTonsunday

I almost ended up in Alaska when I moved away from Michigan back in 1987.
After 30 years of Michigan winters, I decided I had enough and landed here.
Today I'm thinking it was a mistake, but I never envisioned Oregon turning into this!

My husband ran a saw mill and lived in Molalla. He loved where he was and said he was nothing like Portland area. I’m so sorry you folks have been going through all the chaos down there. Praying for you all.

@RhodaMusicOfficial Here in Troutdale, I'm as far from Portland as I can get without going into the gorge or crossing the Cascades. Generally it's fine, but the state laws & rules go to state lines.
I would love to move, but 34 years of 'roots' has me firmly planted.

Here's my acoustic version of Down in the River to Pray. I grew up listening to Doc Watson and Allison Krauss' renditions. My baptism is one of the most powerful memories I have. I was a young woman, newly returned to Alaska after running away during my teenage years to Seattle and California, living on the streets and playing my guitar and singing to make a few dollars enough to eat every day. (I can't wait to share some of my stories with you all in the future)... but coming home, meeting Jesus in those in chilly waters was something else. It was October here in Alaska and snowed the day before and after... but I was dead-set on having my sins washed away in that mountain lake. It was a moment with God I will never forget. It was dark, as we had church services at night. Cold, dark, and deep in the murky depths of that lake... I saw light and I felt warmth, hope, and joy like never before. #rhoda

Thanks for the pictures, songs, and your baptismal story. I was stationed at Elmendorf AFB 1974z78. Made it to Homer, where my sister lives in a nursing home. Her daughter and husband live and commercial fish from there. Camped in the park at base of McKinley. Drove on the ice of Lake Wasilla. Lots of memories, including remarrying there 7/7/77.

Wow Neil! So you are very familiar with up here! Homer is a beautiful town and area. I grew up about 30 minutes out of town from Wasilla Lake, the opposite direction from where we live today. It’s so great that being in the service has allowed a lot of folks to not just see Alaska, but live Alaska. It’s an intimidating place to pack bags and head off to if a person has never lived close to mountains or woods, etc. But, usually when folks do make it up, they fall in love and it gets in their blood. Lots of families decide to call it home after doing a stint up here at JBER, (EAFB).
