This is a collection of songs I wrote and recorded in January - March, 2020 while on sabbatical from ministry. They each deal with a different aspect or expression of the Gospel. Click on the image above to listen.

Three Hands Clapping

Three Hands Clapping
This is my latest recording project (released May 27, 2019). It is a double album of 22 songs, which very roughly track the story of my life... a sort of musical autobiography, so to speak. Click the album image to listen.

A collections of original songs I wrote in 2015, and recorded with the FreeWay Musical Collective. Click the album image to listen.

inversions

inversions
Recorded in 2014, these songs are sort of a chronicle of my journey through a pastoral burn-out last winter. They deal with themes of mental-health, spiritual burn-out and depression, but also with the inexorable presence of God in the midst of darkness. Click the album art to download.

"Bridges" is a collection of original songs I wrote in the summer of 2011, during a soul-searching trip I took out to Alberta; a sort of long twilight in the dark night of the soul. I share it here in hopes these musical reflections on my own spiritual journey might be an encouragement to others: the sun does rise, blood-red but beautiful.

Postcards from a Ministry Quest (4)

Variations on the question "What are some of the significant thinkers/writiers/books that have influenced your ministry?" are pretty common on the candidate interview front. I find these hard questions to answer because there are so many writers and books that have impacted me for ministry, narrowing them down is a bit of a challenge. Here's a question I answered a few months ago, though there might have been other names on the list.

Question: What three authors/thinkers have most guided and directed your thinking?

My answer: N. T. Wright (The New Testament and the People of God, Jesus and the Victory of God, The Resurrection of the Son of God, Simply Christian, etc.); James Torrance (Worship, Community and the Triune God of Grace); Francis Schaeffer (How should We Then Live, He Is There and He is Not Silent, etc.)
