“Hope of the world”/ Becky Green

Full length song

Hi ladies and gents. A Creative Arts Showcase - genius idea. Thanks for letting me being involved. Just wanted to share a track from my wife Becky’s album “All About Everything”. We’re both passionate about God and music… Don’t know how the compressed mp3 will turn out but hopefully you’ll get a taste of her sound. Being thinking about this quote recently:

“Each generation of the church in each setting has the responsibility of communicating the gospel in understandable terms, considering the language and thought-forms of that setting”
Francis Schaeffer

What is Real?

A video from a mini lounge-gig, of a song I wrote expressing some of my frustration about things in the world

The verses of this song I wrote on scraps of paper here and there over a few weeks, and didn’t actually match them up together, unti one day I wrote that chorus and then dug out those lyrics from the songwriting box next to my fridge, and realised they fitted together! I am a Christian and believe the God created this world beautifully, and intended that we live in it in freedom, with justice and equality. Sadly and awfully, sin entered the world and due to our sin and selfish thoughts and acts, I now look round and get so gutted about the way things are, across the world, down the street, and in my heart. My view is that we cannot and must not sit back. I do sometimes (actually if I’m honest, really often!) feel like i don’t know what we can do about it- as the chorus states- yet, I also am an absolute unbeliever in hopelessness. With Jesus, hopelessness is a fallacy and I know that He has the power and compassion to set us free- individuals and nations. I see transformation, in the office, in my heart, and I believe that one day we will have full restoration to the way things were intended to be. With this song I am hoping that it will resonate not just wih other followers of Jesus but also with non-belivers who feel similarly, and then that they will see the heart behind it and be directed to the Prince of Peace who rules.

Is this allowed?

I'm sure this is breaking a few laws but it looks like fun!

I have recently been following the blog of David Capener who, if you have seen the Lovenations webpage, or have read one of the flyers will know is speaking at the conference. You should check out his articles, some are challenging, most are humerous and all are honest.

He posted this video and I thought I’d repost it as it is so very cool!
I’m not sure how they we’re able to get permission for it, maybe they didn’t… All I know is it made me smile.
The music track from UNKLE is pretty sweet too.
Now that was 7 minutes well spent wasn’t it!
