I’m a big fan of a lot of the music that we today call “oldies”. Music from the 60s was still very popular when I was growing up in the 80s, which radio stations dedicated to the era going strong for decades. It’s crazy to me today to think that when I was growing up, many of the songs on the those stations were only 15-20 years old, and we were calling them oldies, yet today rock stations still play Nirvana, Pearl Jam and similar others that are now over 30 years old, and we think nothing of it.

Well, anyway, all of that to say many of those songs hold a little place in my heart, including the song “Turn, Turn, Turn” by the Byrds. It’s just such a great song. Even before I was a believer I enjoyed the sentimental nature of the song, and how it just sounded like something sweet a person who loved you would say to you. Well, of course it is, because it’s from the Bible. Of course, I didn’t know this when I was young, but I was happy to discover it when I finally began reading the Word.

All of that being said, this song is not a cover of that song, but it is based on the same chapter of Scripture. Let me know what you think. If you enjoy it, please share it with someone who might be blessed by it.

Blood on the Ground: Genesis 4

In Genesis chapter 4, we encounter one of the most sobering accounts in all of Scripture: the murder of Abel by his brother Cain. It is easy to read this story and assume that God’s judgment centers solely on the act of murder itself. Yet when we look closely at the...

The Eye of the Needle

Mark 10:25 — “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Few sayings of Jesus are quoted more often—and explained away more quickly—than His words about the camel and the needle. An entire cottage...
