About

Too often Christianity's musical voice can be a syrupy imitation of popular sound. Redeeming music shouldn't happen by "christianizing" radio singles but by setting the aesthetic standard. As creative beings, we have a responsibility to create faith-full art that is both musically innovative and lyrically imaginative. Art that reflects imago dei. Life is too short to be shallow, and God is too holy for cliché.

Over the Rhine has a song that starts "I don't wanna waste your time with music you don't need." Amen. In the songs that I've written, I have tried to share that same vision. And if these are songs that you needed to hear, know that any glimpses of the divine image comes from the One who gives us the light to see.

"In Your light, we see light." -Psalm 36:9
