Nutshell Sermons

I don’t remember singing this song, we were writing for “The Waiting Is Over” project. “I Promised Myself” isn’t on it!

& Learning The Art of “Image”

A little Contentment in a song

Seems like ‘darkness’ gets a bad rap in the Bible, where evil reigns, But it’s whats happening in broad daylight that has me worried.

Why is everything you love to do bad for you?

Sweet Comfort Band hits the road (*&Literally) last year in a garage apt. , .

God has a lot o names and we only use a few.. I learned in my first attempt to write a worship song.. I liked it but the rhythm I get excited about is hard for the congregation to follow.  

What the phrase shoulda meant in the first place

These 4 lunatics drove 4 to 5 hours each, to see a sunday morning concert I did recently in Kansas left to right Faron Kelly, Jed Harris, Heather Stone, David Felts I’m gonna have to start another catagory “Elite Lunatic Friends” or E.L.F. LOL

Like all new bands we got to learn most of the music biz the hard way

In light of my recent inclusion in a Christian Music Museum, This prayer you won’t hear from decades ago seem appropriate. Doesn’t equal God’s grace to us.    

Here’s my vote for who should be in a place to remember. Greg Eklar and Psalm 150. SCB guitarist Randy Thomas was also in it at one point. Never heard better music from a “Christian Band”  

You Need A Reason was the last song on this project. Inspired by Desperado by the Eagles.. “I Know A Place To Go Where The Weak Are Understood”

Promoting this, Our first full project after it was done

Remember the last time you couldn’t get cell phone service? LOL I was above the arctic circle in this picture.. hadn’t seen a pay phone for decades

Perfect song for now that never got airplay back in the day! Bands from ‘my day’ are going away. Its time to revisit the music of the 70’s  

Ever notice how foul mouth people are these days? … Me Too!

The Story of Sweet Comfort Band continues… about our first project

Rehearsing 50 year old songs for yet another revisit of the Glory Days of Sweet Comfort Band/ It’s a Documentary concert

What Life was like in a rock band in the early 70’s. Sweet Comfort was a 3 piece band when we recorded “Golden Ages” for Maranatha 5 (a multi artist release). Guitarist Randy Thomas would be added before we began to support this recording.  

“You Can Make It” is a band favorite to play.. and playing it this week “Live” again

maybe the most asked question about God allowing suffering

In A season of disheartenment and disillusion Jesus simple asks this question.

Touring ’74-76.. the original ‘grunge band’

…when it comes to explanations of a bigger picture

When a friend walks away from what you thought you both believed.. but somebody changed their mind

Doin this song in the reunion concerts

More of how Sweet Comfort became Sweet Comfort BAND *1975

Lets face it men are never quite prepared for what a woman brings

Just figures that the next generation would rather hear from Sponge Bob over Square Pants

“One tall skinny guy, one short pudgy guy and a singer that looked like a girl”

Our Final full original project as the Sweet Comfort Band but not the last songs recorded. And now a documentary is coming for our years together.

After releasing a song on the Reagan Movie Soundtrack last year & releasing a New Song & Video/Tribute to Christian Artists we’ve known who have gone before us. We were asked to do a documentary of the Decade plus years of the Sweet Comfort Band

Just some words that quickly uncluttered my own mind

yer feeling disoriented in your heart n mind… so you start cleaning the garage.

The Song is called “Feel The Love” .. and I say “Feel the Chills” at the end!!! Chuck’s Lead Vocal and Harmony’s from Tommy Coombs and Jay Truax is what The Jesus Revolution Movie never captured about Love Song!!

Now the late Chuck Girard, primary singer in the band Love Song wrote the most compelling Christian song I ever heard. Spoke to me more than all the sermons I sat under. The sweet serenity of a presence of God I felt in this song drove me to cross the country in search of my own place in serving Jesus as he did.

Got word today of Chuck Girard’s passing. Singer Songwriter for the Jesus Music Band that inspired me most. LOVE SONG. This song made me leave the east coast at 19 and drive to California. Just to be where that kind of “Jesus music” started.

‘Lets all sing “Feelings.. nothing more than feelings..”

I quit College to start a Rock Band.. my folks didn’t speak to me for several years

Why are we never happy with our looks?

Sounds like a great name fer a Band!

I might sound more resentful than I really am here.. but honestly it’s all just water under the bridge.. and I got a nice story out of it

Sometimes prayer is the only place to be honest with yourself and God

Quiet Prayers was winner of Dove Award’s Best Inspirational Album of the Year It was so unexpected I wasn’t in the audience to come up and take the Award. This song is for my wife today 6 days after a burst appendix and recovering slowly while fighting Trigiminal Neuralgia.

When yer winnin the war on the fight in front of you and suddenly you’re flanked by a new enemy.

Playin music in a big hall with lights and smoke and a huge crowd isn’t where most musicians live most of the time. The music might have changed but the savior we proclaimed has not.
