The story behind "Long Story Short"

In the fall of 2007 Melissa and I went into the studio with the plan of tracking a new worship album, but the Lord hijacked our plans with his dream. When we thought the songs were coming to an end, Jesus walked through the walls of the studio and we realized the songs were just beginning. The songs that we thought would only last a few minutes turned into ten and fifteen minute experiences. At the end of those days in the studio we had collected two albums full of spontaneous and unplanned moments where heaven collided with our hearts. We released the albums later that year as "The Reward" and "Walk through the Walls." Within those two albums of extended worship are eleven songs that were forged and crafted in the eight years leading up to the moment the record light clicked on. The songs were fashioned in a wilderness and found in the middle of storms. They are the songs of a journey. This year we decided to go back and collect the eleven songs from the extended moments of worship. We remixed and remastered them into beautiful and simple song length versions. I love the way a song can squeeze the beauty of eternity into a few minutes. This collection of songs tells the story of our journey. This is our long story short.

An answered prayer

After seeing our worship leaders leave and having to rely on iPod worship this is an answered prayer. I love the extended version but it is not condusive to good Sunday morning worship as we lose people along the way. This is an awesome opportunity to get these songs out on Sunday. I am so excited.

The Breath of Fresh Air that you need!

Thanks for the music Jonathen, Melissa and the Crew ... We love your hearts!

Do you desire to know God as Abba Papa? Is there something that has dried up within you; even as you stand in church on Sunday mornings and try to sing your heart out? Then let me encourage you to let the mask that you are wearing fall off, God will only speak to the real you! So come to Papa as you are and let him begin to show you how loved you are! You cannot I repeat CAN NOT give to God what you you dont have... he must breathe his love into you so you can be filled... then you can start to breathe it back out! Remeber what Peter said "Lord you can not wash me" Jesus Said " If I dont wash you, you will not be clean" Jesus gave peter new life and peter gave Jesus his... Worship is giving back to God what he first Gave to us as jonathen often says.

This is the message of the Album and the hearts of Johnathen, Melissa and those around them. If you start to accept your self as the beloved you will find endless joy and satiscation in his embrace and knowing your identity as a Son or Daughter!

The album is full of songs that come from the heart not from the head... These songs are not processed through over and over to fit a length or agenda... They are from encounters with heaven. This Album is simply but amazingly people meeting with God in a Stuido and partnering with him to know his heart... And its all with you in mind so that Papa can bring you into the secret place with him!
