Orthodox Singer/Songwriter Has a Change of Heart
Written by Jim Giatas   
Saturday, 31 May 2008

Contemporary Orthodox Christian Singer/Songwriter, Jim Giatas, Has A Change Of Heart. Jim Giatas has been inspired to make his original music available for free. He is no longer in the business of selling music and will, instead, be giving his music away to anyone who wants it.

“Yes, you can say I have truly had a profound change of heart. I have recently come to understand that it is very wrong to be about selling the truth and merchandising the Gospel. I want to be pleasing to God above all, so I just can’t continue in the direction I have been going. I had lost the peace of God there for awhile but with these changes I have found it again. Glory to God in the highest!”

Six of Jim’s songs can be downloaded, at no charge, from http://www.myspace.com/jimgiatas. These songs are:
  1. Whosoever
  2. The Gift Of God
  3. Spirit And Life
  4. Remember Lot’s Wife
  5. In As Much
  6. Lift Up Your Heads

Jim’s account at Nimbit has been closed as Nimbit does not have any provision for free downloads or free CD ordering. As soon as possible and God willing, Jim will make complete downloads of single songs and albums available, at no charge, from DigStation.com and IndieHeaven.com. Physical CDs will also be made available, God willing. Also, if the Lord is willing, Jim also will produce three one- half-hour per week music programs over worldwide shortwave radio.

God loves a cheerful giver.

Your prayers and financial gifts are very much greatly appreciated and needed. Donations to the work of Jim’s Orthodox Christian mission can be made at http://www.myspace.com/jimgiatas through PayPal and all major credit cards. Tax deductions for donations are not possible.

“Freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8
“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:” 2 Cor 9:6-8

ARTIST BIO

Jim Giatas is an Orthodox Christian singer/ songwriter who proclaims the good news of life in Christ. In these perilous end-times, Jim is blessed with a clear sense of vision as a serious artist who writes and performs songs with uncompromising lyrics firmly based in the Holy Scriptures and in the Holy Tradition of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. In this age of confusion, compromise, secularization, and the dulling of our doctrinal acuity, we emphasize apostolic tradition, continuity, and conservatism over a 2,000 year history.

"We preserve the Doctrine of the Lord uncorrupted, and firmly adhere to the faith He delivered to us, and keep it free from blemish and diminution, as a Royal Treasure, and a monument of great price, neither adding anything, nor taking anything from it." (Eastern Patriarchs to the English Non-Jurors, 1718)

Jim has found the peace of God through repentance in the ancient, undivided, Holy Orthodox Church after years of agony and personal searching. He is of the conviction, however unpopular, that the purity of the Gospel message must never be sacrificed for feelings, "spiritual experiences" or a desire to become more acceptable to the world.

Jim has accepted the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ to forsake all, and fully consecrate himself to leading people to God through Orthodox Christianity as his great and only lifework. The life of Christ richly dwells in him as he ministers in spiritual songs, singing with grace in his heart for the Lord.

"The aim and final reason for all music
should be none else than the glory of God."

(J.S.Bach)
