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.

Feast of Fools, a song


Calling all you sinners 
To this Feast of Fools
Where the tables all get turned 
And we're breaking all the rules
So put your best dress on
And come and be made new
When the master breaks the bread
And pours the wine

At the Feast of Fools
Where the king waits on the guests
The Feast of Fools
Where the greatest are the least
The Feast of Fools
Where the last become the best
And the broken are the blessed
At the feast, the Feast of Fools

Calling all you thirsty to 
Come and taste and see
The tables are all laid out 
With milk and honey
And all you have to pay to eat 
Is just your heart's poverty
When the Master breaks the bread
And pours the wine

At the Feast of Fools
Where the king waits on the guests
The Feast of Fools
Where the greatest are the least
The Feast of Fools
Where the last become the best
And the broken are the blessed
At the feast, the Feast of Fools

Calling all you vagabonds
To come and have a seat
The table's overflowing 
With good things to eat
And all it takes to be here
Is to let him wash your feet
When the Master breaks the bread
And pours the wine

At the Feast of Fools
Where the king waits on the guests
The Feast of Fools
Where the greatest are the least
The Feast of Fools
Where the last become the best
And the broken are the blessed
At the feast...
Where the king waits on the guests
The Feast of Fools
Where the greatest are the least
The Feast of Fools
Where the last become the best
And the broken are the blessed
At the Feast of Fools
