What started with a series of books —
The Story Bible (Zondervan),
God’s Story,
Your Story by Max Lucado and
The Heart
of the Story by Randy Frazee — has blossomed
into an entire campaign. With
the goal of bringing the Bible and its
messages to life through the power of
narrative, there is now the
companion CD
Music Inspired
by The Story, with performances
from Amy Grant,
Steven Curtis Chapman,
Natalie Grant, Bart
Millard of MercyMe,
Francesca Battistelli, Mac
Powell of Third
Day, Natalie Grant,
Nichole Nordeman
and more.
Each song,
written in the first-person, recounts the
struggles and victories experienced by
key people in the Bible.
“It’s all about the
humanity,” says Nichole. “These were
broken people who were desperate and
needed God. They are just like us. Songs
from
Music Inspired by The Story are much
more than just music; they allow the
singer and audience to find their stories
within these songs and characters, understanding
that God still weaves His story of
love and redemption with our brokenness,
ultimately writing a new story of hope.”
