Hymn Recordings from Jon Beebe



We hope you will enjoy these great recordings from Jon Beebe.  The meaning behind these recordings is all the more significant because they were made during a live performance on September 13, 2001, just two days after 9/11.  The emotion in this music is powerful, and I know God is speaking to us through these hymns during the difficulties of today, just as He was then.  May you all be blessed by these songs!

Strength and Endurance

More great words from Robert McKethan! Greenway Family, In the best of times, living the Christian life requires strength and endurance…strength and endurance to stay focused on our Lord and Savior.    We’re all faced with issues with relationships, work responsibilities, caring for family members, making financial or retirement decisions, sickness, the loss of loved ones…and the list goes on.  On top of these everyday stressors, we’re now facing a once in a lifetime world health crisis. With all that is going it is so easy to be overwhelmed and fall into despair. As I contemplate our responsibilities and current world events, I also think about how best to cope.  This brings to mind the words of the prophet Isaiah (Chapter 40): 28  Do you not know?  Have you not heard?  The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.  He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.  29  He g...

Great Is Thy Faithfulness

Image
God's Word says in Lamentations 3:22-24: 22  The  Lord’s   loving kindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. 23  They  are new  every morning; Great is  Your faithfulness. 24  “The  Lord  is my  portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I  have hope in Him.” With all that is going on in our world today, these words bring an important message to us. No matter what, God is faithful in his compassion, mercy, and love! I hope you will enjoy this (very homemade) recording of the beloved hymn, "Great Is Thy Faithfulness."  The words are listed below for you to reflect or sing along as you listen. Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father, There is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not As Thou has been Thou forever wilt be. Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy ...

Christmas Eve, 1968

From Robert McKethan: "Earlier this week, I was reading and contemplating a devotion about Psalm 8.   The third verse describes God’s construction of the universe, “When I consider the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place…”  As, I read this verse, I was taken back to Christmas Eve, 1968.  On that date, American astronauts circled the moon for the first time.  Each of the three astronauts took turns reading from the first chapter of Genesis.  They also captured this iconic image, the earthrise above the moon’s horizon.  My thoughts then and now are:  Our creation did not occur as a result of some “big bang” event billions and billions of years ago.    Our God created the universe out of nothing…in six days .   Our God is a God of incomprehensibly awesome power and imagination. As you look at the earthrise image, read  Genesis 1 and  P...
