A Relaxed Christmas Experience

Joshua Mills is an ordained minister, speaker, musician, and author based in our great neighbor to the north, Canada. He's known internationally for preaching that brings the glory of God to those he ministers to.
Christmas Miracle is great for those who are less into the rock-n-roll style Christmas music. Lots of piano and a little bit of jazz make this album a traditional contemporary mix.
Bringing back memories of making the staff Christmas video was a rendition of "Marshmallow World." Just can't get away from those marshmallows! Gratuitous use of jingle bells, finger snapping and what sounds like electronic drums gives new life to the old classic. The single "It Snowed" was featured on NRT's own Christmas sampler, and more than anything, it makes this reviewer wish it would snow "four feet high."
Closing Thoughts:
This project is different, in a good way. Having not heard anything by Joshua Mills before, it was a good first impression. Overall, it sounds like something that would be played in a mall while snow falls outside and everyone does their Christmas shopping. The music and Joshua's vocals work well together to bring a Christmas album worthy of being in anyone's playlist.
