705Live: I'm Not Skinny

The other day, I sat down with a guitar and a couple of friends and we sang stupid songs. From this, my love for stupid songs that I've written was rekindled. So I came back into my room, sat down, and recorded several tracks I'm calling 705Live. Some of them are silly...some are less silly. But these are all me, and I like them.

This first edition of 705Live features a silly song which only took me three-and-a-half years to write. "I'm Not Skinny" started as the third edition of 5 Good Minutes with Tim Margheim in my earliest adventuring into youth ministry. It's one of my classic pieces, but it's always felt like it was missing a verse to me. Then, earlier this semester, I was inspired to write another verse (I'm pretty sure you'll figure out which one just by listening), finally bringing a sense of wholeness to the work.

Anywho, hope y'all enjoy!



Peace, love, and joy to you all.
