Our Hymns, Our Heritage encourages a love and appreciation for the church’s hymns—a significant way to pass the Christian faith from generation to generation. The book features music and lyrics for 121 hymns that every person should know, drawn from a cross-section of styles, themes, and historical eras. The hymns are divided into sections based on the church year, God’s nature and attributes, and our responses to Him. Each hymn is presented on single book spread—the left-hand page gives a brief biography of the text’s author and the melody’s composer as well as a devotional summary to aid singing with understanding. The right-hand page is hymnal-like with the music and stanzas for simple playing and singing. Our Hymns, Our Heritage can be used by parents and educators alike to instill a life-long love for the richness and beauty of hymns.

Enrich Your Christmas with the Sounds of the Season Music has always been central to celebrating the coming of Christ into the world. With Hosanna in Excelsis you can experience the hymns of the season like never before.

Celebrate the coming of Christ by immersing yourself in the legacy of music that truly honors the Christmas season. Hosanna in Excelsis is a great Christmas gift for the musicians in your life or for anyone who wants to go deeper celebrating the birth of our savior.

“In my lifetime, worship has changed from something we do before an audience of God to something a few semi-professionals do for an audience of us. Danny was my worship leader for years, and he has earned the right to be heard.” —Philip Yancey, Author, What’s So Amazing About Grace? Worship experiences of today’s Christians remain diverse. Wallpaper Worship challenges the status quo of the modern-day worship service and illustrates how to move worship form an observation-based to an active-participant-centered activity. Drawing from John 4, Danny Byram identifies the cause of the passive, wallpaper worship experience and provides practical solutions. This book is a must-read for all worship leaders and anyone seeking powerful participation from church congregants.
