Music: The Human Engine Waits

Been listening to Andy Melvin’s album, "The Human Engine Waits," and soaking in the deep content and awakening tunes.

Andy Melvin

For some background theology on the album see Jonathan Dodson’s intro and sermon series related to it (like "Waiting: The Lofty and the Lowly ").

The title is awesome; reminds me of how desperate and needy we are (through appearing self-sufficient like an engine), hoping and "waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works" (Titus 2:13-14 ).

  • What is deTheos?

    The two Greek words de ("but") and Theos ("God") are the first two words of Ephesians 2:4: "But God, who is rich in mercy..." Because of God's great love and grace extending to us in Jesus Christ, we are forgiven, redeemed and able to know, love + enjoy God more fully, ever-increasing and forever.
    This site contains the thoughts and conclusions and journeys of the Patterson family -- Jeff, Kari and Dutch -- who have experienced the front-end of God's amazing grace, and continue to delight in His unfailing love.
    Read more about us, and what we hold most precious.
