Seventh Day Slumber Review
Take Everything, the new and first worship album from the band Seventh Day Slumber is more, but at the same time, something you can expect from this guys, taking popular songs such as Surrender, Mighty to save and from the inside out to masterpieces.
This album in my opinion deserves more than just 5 stars and two thumbs up, i would say 4 thumbs up and 10 stars or probably more than that, if you still do not have it, go to iTunes or your near store and get it NOW!, it would worth it!
Interview 1. To all those who don’t know you can you give your names and what you play on the band? Joseph Rojas- Lead Singer and Guitar, Joshua Schwartz- Bass, Jeremy HolderfieldBGV and Lead Guitar, and Elliot Lopes- Drums
2. What’s the meaning of the band’s name “Seventh Day Slumber” God created the earth in six days and rested on the 7th. A friend suggested it and we couldn’t think of anything else so we went with it.
3. How SDS starts? Joseph started the band in 1997 and met Josh a year later at bible college and they had different musicians playing with them until they moved to Nashville, TN and met Jeremy there who has been in the band for 7 yrs. Elliot is our newest addition in the band. He has been with us almost a year now.
4. What’s the band message? Our message is to reach the lost and hurting let them know that there is hope for their lives and that God can take their pain and hurts and restore them. We all have been through things in our lives and God has brought us out of it and when Seventh Day Slumber was started we made it our only focus. Music comes second to us. 5. What’s the meaning behind your new album in stores March 10th “Take Everything”?? Take Everything is basically about asking God to take all of us and not leave anything. I think it’s so appropriate since this a worship record.
6. What are your hobbies? We like playing video games in the bus, watching movies, and riding four wheelers.
7. I know bands usually like to play pranks on each other, what is the funniest prank you have ever seen and/or took part of while on tour? The only thing that comes to mind is on one of the tours while another band was playing some of the other guys on tour brought out sleeping bags and laid on stage during one their songs. It was funny of course the audience didn’t know what was going on.
8. What is your method at the time to write a song? Joseph always writes lyrics. Music it varies. Sometimes Joseph will have basic music and then Jeremy or Josh will finish it or Joseph will write the whole song. It really depends.
9. What are SDS music influences?? Before we were saved, we listen to bands like STP, Rage Against the Machine, etc. But nowadays we listen to pretty much any kind of music. Bands like POD, Underoath, Anberlin, Dead Poetic and Casting Crowns to name a few. I think they all have some influence in our music. 10. What you guys do when you are not touring? Hang out with our wives and family.
11. What plans are you making for the future?? We just want to reach as many people as we can with our message of hope. We have tours coming up for this record and we’re very excited about getting out there and playing this new songs and seeing lives being changed.
13. Which has been the greatest day of your life?? As a band, I think when you get an email saying that I was going to kill myself but God used you guys through your music…or when I was at a show I heard your testimony and I decided not commit suicide that night it really give us fulfilment. When you’re making an impact in someone’s life it makes all the struggles and hardship worth it. So as a band I would say those are the most fulfilling moments
14. Pancakes, waffles or hotcakes?? And why? I like all of them. I think they’re all good it just depends on the day.
15. Chevy, Toyota or Jaguar?? And why?? Toyota because they have the best gas mileage now…if money wasn’t a concern Jaguar for sure.
16. If you guys had the chance to ask God tonight one question to be answered by him, which it would be? Why would he love someone like me?
17. How do you feel the band is going now?? We are excited to see what God has for us in the future. We know this new record is going to touch a lot of lives and open new opportunities for us to minister.
18. What are the album or song (if you don’t have an album), that you guys cant take out of your head, as much as you try??

Why?
Part 1
Three simple letters, one word. Why?, a word that many of us can’t stop to ask ourself, but sometimes that leave us with a doubt that many times destroy us or separate us from the truth. In this first issue, i would be talking to you about those why? we all have such as “Why my parents have to die”?, why is there war, crisis and hungry at the world?, why i have to live like this and others like that? and one of the most popular “Why God let this happen?”. all of then have a answer and a reason, so in this 2 series part, we would be watching why all this is happening and for that, we would go to a book love for manies and hate for manies called “Bible” and what it have to say about this.... We in some ways have heard this i gonna be talking about or probably not, but read it again would not hurt you... The way i would be explaining this would be divided in 2 ways, “Destiny” & “Decisions”. Destiny: like the definition said, is when all that happen to us , has been destinied for a reason, several times the bible talks about destination for each of us, some for salvation and others not.
Christ when dies, as in the bible is written, in books like romans, where in some chapters talks about those some people he buy with his blood, so many of us in any time have heard that we are ALL save, and from now let me tell you is a completely lie, just think about it, if we are all save, then, for what is hell?, for what satans waste his time fooling us, confusing us and making us fall?, if we are all “save”, for what then is gonna happen the apocalypse, who’s gonna stay, some has to be fooled and marked OR save, right?, the question is simple, not everyone is save, the bible talks about even people and pastors who call themselves believers, which are anything of that. There are people destinied to not be saved, many times all that are not save have a
purpse in this world, for example.: those who hurt you and hate you because you are a christian have a purpose, which is written in the bible: “Those who gonna persecute you, because they hate God”, NOW, that doesn’t means those people are not saved, there has been people like that on the bible that have made bigger stuff like Paul, which was a christian killer, but ends been a man of God as no other. In the bible is wrote that God use the most terrible of the world to show his glory; So when you ask to yourself, why this is happening to me?, there may be 3 reasons for that, 1. you’re from the evil club use as a tool for God to test a believer, 2. God may be testing you or 3. you may suffering and use as a tool, but at the end God may buy your life with his blood at the cross and something awesome may be waiting for you at the end. In the next sermon, i would be talking about another reason that may happen the things called “Decisions”. God’s the only one that knows your life, your beginning and end.
