A Tale of Two Trees: Meditations on Faith-Keeping in Story and Song (The Well Trilogy)

When drought, exile, and confusion have left her parched, what choices will the Bride of Christ make to root herself in Jesus, take up her abandoned harp, and keep what seems like a foolish feast of faith in enemy territory? Will the singers go silent? Or will they set their hearts on pilgrimage, finding that even the valley of weeping can become a place of springs? These questions set the stage for both the second musical album of Matthew Clark's "Well Trilogy," as well as this series of companion essays from Emily Verdoorn, Heidi White, Benjamin Holsteen, Jason Smith, Steven Elmore, John Barnts, Lancia E. Smith, Amber Salladin, Anita K. Palmer, Susan Cowger, and Jonathan Koefoed.
