Today our Scripture is John 15 v 5 ‘I am the vine and you are the branches’

October 22, 2025 /

Without being joined closely to Jesus, anything we try and achieve spiritually will be of no use.  

Before you listen to the song, ask God to speak to you through these words from Scripture. Don’t worry too much about the tunes, I’m just putting the words to simple easy to sing and play melodies which will hopefully help the words sink in!

I’m writing these simple Scripture songs as a resource. Please do use and teach them as both old and young can be helped and encouraged by singing and learning them.

Church visits.

I’d love to visit you and would be available to do an ‘ALL-AGE PRAISE PARTY’, or a ‘SPECIAL CHILDREN’S PRAISE PARTY’ and yes, even a very different ‘ADULT PRAISE PARTY’ with a lot more older Ish popular praise and worship songs. All Praise Parties are guaranteed fun, with few simple words of challenge…of course.  You choose.

I can also do the ‘When the road is rough & steep testimony concert for adults…which is quite unique and has helped, encouraged and blessed many struggling in these difficult times. Praise God!

Just drop me an e mail…I’d love to be with you! No fee, just minimal expenses.
