The gospel of John has Jesus deliver this simple metaphor in chapter 15: I'm the vine; you're the branches; God's the gardener. This song unpacks it as an intergenerational upbeat song. Three simple lines can be learned easily and then sung together and simultaneously. Great for kids and youth in a camp, youth gathering or Sunday School context.

Another great song written by Brian McLaren and arranged and performed by Fran McKendree and Ana Hernandez.  This is an infectious arrangement, easy to play on guitar, and the lyrics are based on the familiar 1 Cor. 13.  One of the great things about this song is that it can be used in lots of contexts--congregational worship, children's choirs, even as a camp song.  Warning--you won't be able to get it out of your heads!

Another one of Brian McLaren's penetrating lyrics sung by Traci Howe Wispelwey. Brian's amazing gift for coming up with fresh language with which to explore Scripture and doctrine and bring biblical Truth to life through song is very evident here. The song is probably more solo than congregational, but could be used liturgically in a number of different ways. Learn More
