No More Page Turns for the Church Pianist! More Details Soon!
July 6th, 2019
Quite often, while surfing facebook, I would come across a video advertisement for this Choreo Keeper notebook.
I never clicked on the video until recently and was very intrigued with the idea of no more page turns!
I decided to buy one of these notebooks and try it out for myself. Absolutely LOVE it!
No more page turns for offertories! (notebook size paper arrangements fit the page protectors for this notebook)

“Crown Him with Many Crowns” Early intermediate Sacred Piano Solo
June 24th, 2019Just finished recording this arrangement to my youtube channel. This particular arrangement of “Crown Him with Many Crowns” is available in my book entitled “My Redeemer and Friend” published by Lorenz.
One of my early intermediate students is working on this particular arrangement right now. She said it was comfortable to the hand and plans on playing it for offertory at her church.
“My Redeemer and Friend” Lorenz Book Recording in the Works!
June 23rd, 2019
Just finished creating video recordings of the songs from my book entitled “My Redeemer and Friend”.
Lorenz Publishing owns this book of my arrangements and can be purchased HERE
I will upload them to Youtube as time permits.
Just Published: Great is Thy Faithfulness
June 23rd, 2019Here’s an easy early intermediate sacred piano solo of “Great is Thy Faithfulness”.
This piece was also written for one of my early intermediate students.
I have several students who play in church and are always looking for early intermediate sacred piano solos that don’t take a long time to learn 😉
Church pianists are busy people! Always practicing with choir or other vocal specials…so it’s nice to have an arrangement that the pianist can learn in a reasonable amount of time.
Just Published! Lead Me to Calvary
June 22nd, 2019I originally wrote this arrangement for one of my piano students and then forgot about it. This arrangement of “Lead Me to Calvary”makes an excellent choice for the Lord’s supper, Lent, offertory or another devotional time in your service.
Three Early Intermediate Short Piano Offertories on the Way!
June 20th, 2019Three Early Intermediate offertories on the way to publication soon! I have a surplus of arrangements that I write for my students and find it a challenge to take the time to input them into my computer program (Finale).
The titles are: Great is Thy Faithfulness, Lead Me to Calvary and The Love of God.
Just need to do a little tweaking!
It is Well! Congregational Leading by My Dad
June 20th, 2019“It is Well”, a favorite among many of us. I just had to share this uplifting video of my Dad leading “It is Well” for a group of Christian educator’s at a convention several years ago in Myrtle Beach, SC. Although you can’t see the crowd….you can tell they were singing from their hearts.
It was my honor to accompany Dad for the congregational singing and for his vocal solos. Dad really “feels” the music which you will notice in the video below.
My parents have always encouraged me to serve the Lord through music. For that, I am truly grateful.
