Bible Stories are the inspiration for the music that I write. Here are scripture references for the stories that inspired these songs: God is Light is a praise song that is based on 1 John 1:5-9. Loser recounts a variety of stories about Jesus from the Gospels including the story of the lepers in Luke 17:12-19. Water into Wine is based on the story of the wealthy young man from Matthew 19:16-26. Wild Man in the Desert tells the story of John the Baptist found in the first and third chapters of Luke as well as the first 12 verses of the third chapter of Matthew. Elisha’s Bones is five verses long but comes from only two verses of scripture, a story told in 2 Kings 13:20-21. The Prodigal Son is based on the familiar story from Luke 15: 11-32. Bound for Glory is another telling of the story of the Israelite nation in the wilderness first told in Exodus and repeated throughout the Old Testament. Job is inspired by the first two chapters of the Book of Job along with the last chapter, chapter 42. A Little Faith is based on the story of David and Goliath told in 1 Samuel 16 & 17. Found a Penny tells the story of the widow’s mite found in Mark 12: 41-44 and also in Luke 21: 1-4. I hope my songs will help you think about these familiar stories in a new way.
