Coming from the Catholic tradition of the church, this is a demo of such low-fi, just Stephen's vocals, keyboards and bits of harmonies, that listening is extremely difficult. Stephen writes melodic devotional songs, but with a similarity of tempo and key on many of the numbers and plenty of wobbles in the voice it's impossible to recommend. The Middle Eastern sounding "Om Nama Jesu" and "Jesus Is The Lord" raise interest momentarily and almost remind me of Secret Archives Of The Vatican. But even here the poor sound quality drags it down.
