God gave Heather the idea and desire to write a Christian musical. The work focuses on how Jesus calls his disciples. It moves on to see how they are anointed by the Holy Spirit and called to go out into the world to make disciples. It ends with the challenge for us as to how we should be disciples for Jesus in a broken and hurting world.
The drama is set in Galilee using the Bible stories and is anchored around the family of Zebedee and his wife. This creative project applied the gifting and qualifications of musicianship, song-writing and drama.

The year through to the release date was a blessed time of God’s anointing with creativity. Many of the songs concern our faith walk; drawing closer to the Lord Jesus. It has been good to work with a wider network of musician friends: Andy Laurence, Joy Hindson, Cathryn Fernandex, Andy Orchard, Adi Patrascu and Eliza Dimu.
There are 16 tracks and scores are available. We would love you to take the music to use in worship in your church.
