About

My name is Danny. Husband to Kathy. Father to Alexandra and Benjamin. A child of God by adoption.

For years, God was showing me something through my own life - that this life is received from Him, not produced by me. But it was so contrary to how everyone around me seemed to live that I doubted it. Surely it could not be this simple.

So I went looking. I asked what Paul would have taught the people around him. What Jesus opened up on the road to Emmaus, when He showed two travelers Himself in all the Scriptures. What the apostles understood, and actually lived. And as I traced it, the same thread ran through all of it, from Genesis to the cross. That is what the studies are.

But even after I wrote them, the truths were hard to connect with - too much, held at arm's length. So I wrote the songs. Singing them let me ponder these rich truths until they sank in. And somewhere in that, I realized what God had been showing me through my whole life was never strange. It was always meant to be normal.

I've made my peace with what this can and can't do. I can't argue anyone into it, and me telling you the truth I found doesn't, by itself, change a thing. The most I can offer is this: it is not strange. It was always meant to be normal — the ordinary life God gives. The rest is between you and Him.

So sit with the songs. Sit with the Scriptures. Seek, and ask God to show you what He showed me. Seek. Surrender. Be sanctified - not by your effort, but by His life in you.
