Nearly eight years after 2000's HEAVEN TO EARTH, Christian singer Michael English returned with THE PRODIGAL COMES HOME, an introspective selection of spiritually minded tunes (and also the title of his '07 autobiography). Standout tracks include the rock-tinged "Sanctuary" and an emotive cover of the John Hiatt classic "Have a Little Faith in Me," songs that reveal English's heart-on-the-sleeve charms.
