The Gift of Christmas
I wrote this song a couple of years ago for our choir to sing at our church. I wanted a song for our choir to sing that talked about what the gift of Christmas really is. Sure it’s a message that’s been told in many songs, but it’s a message that needs to be repeated as often as we can. The point of Christmas isn’t “Presents in bows or wishes for snow, or gifts...

This past Saturday, my family remembered one of the members of our family. He was a wonderful father, husband, uncle and friend to many. He also served in our armed forces for a period of time, serving part of his time in Korea.

A lot of the great Hymns have been rearranged several times, and we have a contemporary version of them that our band already knows – so it would be redundant for me to come up with a new arrangement for one of those. So, I’ve been looking through my hymnals lately...

I know it’s been forever and a day since I posted anything here. The short reason is it’s complicated. The long story is, well, just ask me in person some-time In the meantime, I thought I’d put up a recording of one of my songs that’s not up here yet. I wrote this song a few years ago. We’ve been using this song as a worship song at our church for a while now, and...
