It’s finally happened! I’m finally official!
The other day I got a surprise package in the mail from Alliance Music Publications. What to my wondering eyes should appear but a great big stack of published scores… with my name on the front!
You may recall that “Mick McGuire” is the Irish folk song I arranged [...]

Ah, those good old Pharisees. They’ve been dead and gone for centuries, yet we never tire of talking about the dangers of their beliefs. I’ve lost count of the number of sermons I’ve heard, articles I’ve seen, and books I’ve read that in some way or another caution the Christians of modern days [...]
 This is the part where Eric goes away for Christmas vacation. In case you don’t hear from me–although you might–Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I think I finally figured out what Christmas trees are really about.

Those of you who have been following me for a while have probably heard that I’ve been working on a brand-new CD recording of worship songs and hymns I’ve written over the past several years. I’ve wanted to do this for quite a while, especially since getting married and realizing how wonderful Carrie’s [...]
Originally published August 2006. These ideas are in a rough and unpolished form. I wrote them down one evening while they were in my mind for some reason, and since then several people have told me this was very helpful in their own work in worship music. This is still very much how I [...]
Starting on September 8, I’ll be recording a new CD. My usual piano and vocals will be joined with the audio engineering skills of Peter Devins, the vocals and guitar stylings of Carrie Pazdziora, and the fantastic violin virtuosity of Øystein Torp, making an intimate but dynamic sound. The songs are new hymns and worship [...]
R. A. Torrey was a 19th-century evangelist known for his commitment to the Word of God and the message of the Gospel. As a pastor, evangelist, teacher, author, and scholar, he has an enduring impact even today. Many of his books are regarded as classics (such as the splendidly simple How to Pray), and institutions [...]
