Tell Me a Story

Here's a lovely song, one that I've been listening to a whole bunch lately.  It's the first song on an album produced by the SOIL AND THE SEED Project, a Mennonite creative collective with roots in the Shenandoah.

I adapt their worship resources for regular use in our little church, and this album...telling the story of Matthew's Gospel in the form of a folk bluegrass gospel opera...really floats my boat.  

Sweet, filled with gracious harmonies and organic acoustics, it's a great supplement to the class I'm currently leading on Matthew's Gospel.  For anyone preaching on Matthew this year, it's a fine, fine backdrop for contemplation.  

Give it a listen, and if you enjoy, there's much, much more.
