| MLJ Music (named for the Gospel writers Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), was founded in 1995. Although we are a Catholic Christian company, we are active in all areas of the music business, the sacred and the secular. We specialize in Catholic Music and Boogie Woogie. "We" is usually me for the time being.
We love life and the joy of simple living. Music is an integral part of the good life.
We thank and praise Jesus Christ for the opportunity to serve him through the gift of music.
Thank you for visiting our site.
Matthew 6; 30-33
If God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith?
So do not worry and say, 'What are we to eat?' or 'What are we to drink?' or 'What are we to wear? All these things the pagans seek. Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil.
