Let us introduce a scene to you full of the beauty and serenity of God’s handiwork.  Needing a break from the day’s hectic activity, you take a walk near the riverbank.  It is a fine Spring day and you feel the fresh, active wind whisper past your ears.  Along the edge of stream you are met by row upon row of strong, vigorous trees.  Their roots form a tangled net twisting across the bank.   Doused in a film of green and braided deep into the water, they take hold of the river floor with a viselike grip.

In the same way, we as believers are to remain anchored to Jesus Christ with such a grasp.  According to the Bible, there are deep and magnificent blessings in living by the stream.  It brings life and prosperity to those who delight in God’s law.  Both the name of this piece and the title of the band were taken from Psalm 1 in hopes of revealing through music this awe-inspiring connection between Christians and the Creator.

Living by the Stream is excellent at their craft! They recently performed their beautiful music at our church banquet as well as church service. Both events were simply amazing! We look forward to having them back!!”

Pastor Mark Green, Allendale Baptist Church

“Living by the Stream shared a Christmas concert at Highland Avenue Fellowship at our “First Friday” event.  Their talent and humility combined to make everyone who attended blessed beyond measure, and definitely helped put us in the Christmas Spirit. We would be honored to have them share their music with us any time they are available.”

Pastor Tom Pope, Highland Avenue Fellowship Church

“Seldom do musicians capture the beauty of life, spirit, love and grace of life in the way that LIVING BY THE STREAM does. Their intricate harmonies, lead vocals, violin and guitar not only entertain, but spiritually minister most deeply. Techno touches are cutting-edge as well, combining in a true musical/ministry touch that empowers, encourages and lifts crowds, whether large or small. I commend them to you for your most important organizational get-togethers and gatherings. You’ll be glad you scheduled them and attendees will want them back ASAP! Ours did.” 

Reverend Stephen Reyner, Good Shepherd Church of the Brethren
