Happy New Year to you from DisciplesNet Church! Try out this 22-minute New Year's gift to you, featuring storyteller Rev. Dr. Marti Steussy bringing her adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's "Where Love is, There Also is God."

Christmas Worship Gift: Piano Tunes by Beverly Heid

DisciplesNet Church seeks to be platform where our members can share their gifts with others. For Beverly Heid (pronounced 'hide'), reaching out comes naturally. For years she has made it part of her personal ministry to visit those for whom it is difficult or impossible to get out of their homes. Often when visiting she will bring the gift of her music to brighten others' days.
Beverly played these songs on her Baldwin piano, adding her own flair and taping them as she went for this purpose. We have put them together as her gift shared through DisciplesNet.
The tunes are mostly familiar ones. They extend Bev's kindness from her home in Indiana, USA to yours, bringing peace, comfort, and inspiration to all those who might enjoy listening to the melodies of these Christmas hymns in a time of worship and meditation. Christmas 2010

The Joy Song — For the Third Sunday of Advent

In this short 6-minute video, musician and DisciplesNet minister Rev. Dr. Audrey Borschel teaches her own original work, "The Joy Song," which was written with children especially in mind. Afterwards, Borschel makes the Christmas story come alive as she reads Matthew 1:18-25.
An added bonus on this tape is the opening song, the Cradle Song, played on a mountain dulcimer.
