Sing the Stories of God's New People is the third volume of songs for the very youngest singers, ages four to seven, offering twenty-five songs based on stories and writings in Acts, the Epistles, and Revelation. As with the two preceding volumes, this third volume can be used with young choral singers as well as a part of a church school curriculum. The tunes are short and memorable; the lyrics are written in simple language and focus on a key idea in each story. When the story-songs are coordinated with the Revised Common Lectionary, the songs provide an opportunity for young children to provide music for congregational worship that is relevant and meaningful.Included in the collection are piano accompaniments, a CD recording with both a full chorus and accompaniment versions, as well as creative suggestions for teaching the songs.

Liam shares remarkable stories of human life and of the people and events that have touched him during his years of ministry, along with fascinating perspectives on his own spiritual awakening. These pages reveal a God who does not intrude upon human living but rather is available to enter into the very depth of it and become present to those who wish for “eyes to see, and ears to hearâ€.

A Musical for Young Voices - The Story of the Tower of Babel Leading to Pentecost In Genesis 11 and Acts 2 we read about two events where languages helped fulfill God's purpose. When the people of Babel built the tower, they were led by the human spirit and ended up in confusion, scattered over the earth, speaking different languages. At Pentecost, people from many nations, speaking different languages, were led by the Holy Spirit; and even in their diversity, they were united. This 35-minute musical for young voices (Unison w/opt. Two-Part) links together these Old Testament and New Testament stories with songs, humor and heart. The message is, if we follow the Great Commandments - ?loving God and loving our neighbors, no matter how different from us they are or what language they speak - we will surely be filled with the Holy Spirit. A score with piano accompaniment and a singers edition without the piano part are both included for the one price. You may make as many copies as you require for use by your choir. Separate audio MP3s and instrumental parts are available, and there is a video of the debut performance on the Hope YouTube channel.
