The Waldens’s Top Ten by Gene Walden


1. Please tell us the name of your latest recording and your favorite song from that CD. What is the message behind this song?

Our latest recording is the self-titled CD, The Waldens. Of course every song is my favorite but if I had to choose just one, it would be a song that Kim and I wrote entitled Little Things. It depicts a couple of real life scenarios that we might typically overlook but God’s hand of providence was in control of those situations. In essence, He loves us so much that He’s involved in every area of our life and “He’s Big In The Little Things”.

2. Have you been on a mission trip? If you have, where did you go? If you haven’t, would you like to and where would you want to go?
