THE KINGDOM

For over a year now, I’ve been writing songs that chronicle the ministry of Jesus, from John the Baptist’s proclamation “Behold the Lamb of God…” to Peter’s Confession “You’re the Messiah…”. From the calming of the Sea of Galilee: “Peace, be still” to the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem: “Blessed is He Who comes…” The Last Supper, Death, Resurrection, and impending Return: these songs focus on The Kingdom of Heaven at hand! The first song (Authority) released March 28th, Peace Be Still is scheduled for October.

HOW IS THIS ALBUM UNIQUE?

I won’t compare to other artists’ albums, but I’ll compare to my own!

This is not a collection of disconnected songs that landed on my radar over the course of two years. The Kingdom tells a story from beginning to end.

Even though Heaven + Earth, my Psalms Project, was chronological (beginning with Psalm 8 and ending with chapter 150) The Kingdom has an arch: a storyline that develops from track to track.

The closest similarity would be like Unto Us, my Christmas album, that progressed from the angels’ proclamation, to the shepherds’ adoration, to their declaration that the Messiah had come as they returned to their fields…

Not only will these 11 vignettes cover a timeline from Jesus’ Baptism to His Eternal Reign (as described above in greater detail), and not only will carefully crafted sound effects between songs facilitate the listener’s immersion into the heart of the narrative, but the songs themselves contain “chapters” that move each moment along from start to finish.

One such example…

Peace Be Still begins with a peel of thunder, howling wind, pouring rain, and a raging tempest. The brilliant strings of Antonio and Allison Marin evoke the sway of the ship tossed back and forth by the waves. However, when the words “Peace, be still!” are spoken, even the music obeys! Your shoulders relax, and like the disciples, you realize Who is with you.

Emmanuel isn’t just a word reserved for Christmas! This song ends with a declaration of worship I envision the disciples singing with broad smiles on their faces as they ROW back to shore (because the wind ceased!) “Take courage, He is with us! Emmanuel!”

Peace Be Still began with a storm that promised destruction, but ends with calm waters, clear skies promising another sunrise, and the Son of Man in the boat WITH them!

“Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey Him?” - Mark 4:41
