Mission

 Somewhere in the last hundred years, the traditional practice of resetting hymn texts to contemporary melodies has been lost. Moldering hymn texts lie dormant from disuse, but not because of any loss of relevancy or meaningful content. On the contrary, the practice of historical hymnody has become tarnished simply from neglect.

In a postmodern context, the concept of blended worship has developed, largely referring to a style of music that alternates traditional hymn tunes and texts with praise songs or choruses; however, the attempt to balance the ratio of hymns to choruses often creates discord and divisive heart attitudes among those passionate about worship.

Far Beyond Rescue is a new project with an old goal: to unite the hearts and voices of believers across the globe. The term blended worship is being redefined as a middle ground where the rich texts of ancient theology are carried by relevant melodies and sounds. The project's goal is to challenge worshipers to examine our hearts and to graciously worship in unity of purpose—
the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I did not expect to be offered employment, and as a matter of fact, I had actually planned on such a contingency, so as not to be disappointed. Thus far, I had chosen to disregard the Savior's provision and lovingkindness in favor of another attempt at control. Having not interviewed for several years, my skills were quite rusty. Thankfully, the hiring manager was not overly seasoned, and God brought me favor during the interview process. In what seemed like a dizzying blur, the int

Could it be True?

One of my personal favorites from the message of TrueFaced is the principle that talks about God's design. Being currently stuck somewhere between underemployed and unemployed, I've had ample opportunity to give this some thought. Admittedly, I am the sort of person that would much prefer to leave the Savior out of the equation. In a practical sense, give me a paycheck and a time clock, and I will gladly give my allegiance to...myself. The writers of TrueFaced echo sound biblical counsel that speaks of the incredible purpose that we are built into. Beyond and superseding the mundane, the Father's intimate knowledge of His children allows Him to perfectly craft their development into a vibrant and integral part of His body. His ways are perfect because His knowledge is perfect. No one in the universe is more qualified to dream with and for us than our God. Previously, this concept has been foreign to me not because it did not sound alluring, but because I failed to belie
