I just discovered that my song May the Mind of Christ My Savior was used at Western Theological Seminary’s graduation ceremony. Here’s a short clip from the rehearsal which sounds just lovely.

Just a quick note to say that some people have been reporting broken links when they try to download music. Nothing’s simple, am I right? We’re working on a solution and will keep you posted. If you need a file immediately, send an email and we’ll try to get it to you right away.

One of the big projects I’ve been working on recently is a Korean/English hymnal. Chan Gyu Jang and I have been collecting favorite worship songs from the Korean church, translating and arranging them for use in English-speaking congregations and Korean American congregations that often include multiple generations and some mix of the two languages. It is immensely satisfying to make these gems available more widely.

One of our translations was included in the 2023 Calvin Worship Symposium. You can hear “은혜로다 / This Is God’s Grace” by 심형진 (Hyung Jin Shim) at 24:42 in the service. Beautiful!

If you subscribe to my newsletter, you will have already heard that Kate Bluett and I won the 2022 Church of the Servant New Psalm Contest with “Psalm 20: Blessing.” In celebration of the song’s premiere, I’ve written a string quartet/orchestra arrangement of the song. You can download the arrangement here on my website. You can listen to the premiere in person at Church of the Servant or tune in via Zoom on February 12, 2023 @ 10am EST: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82066362992?pwd=cmkzRzYxakViTnBrOXkxZmkxbytiQT09 [Meeting ID: 820 6636 2992, Passcode: worship].
