Mission Of Praise (1996) - Scott Wesley Brown - Hosanna! Music

Scott's Journey to Becoming a Musician

My first attraction to music was my grandmother’s piano. It was one of those old Sundayschool uprights and barely in tune. 

But to me it was the door that opened up into a world of endless possibilities, 

especially for a three year old.

I received my first guitar for my seventh birthday and despite the fact that I had 

no idea of how to tune it, I spent hours making up songs. But the real epiphany 

came in sixth grade.

I was failing English grammar and my teacher was concerned that I just couldn’t 

catch on. But then we launched into studying poetry. Our assignment was to 

write a poem, which I accepted with great enthusiasm. I went home that night 

with one single mission: to write a great poem!

The next morning I arrived at school so excited to turn my poem in to the teacher 

and my heart leapt as she selected mine to read to the whole class. Before I caught

 the bus home Mrs. Brewer asked me to write another poem and to bring it 

back the following day, which I continued to do until the last day of school that year. 

Each afternoon she would sit down with me and read through my poems helping 

me steer through the grammar, the tense and the flow.

By the end of my sixth grade year I was starting to add music to those poems 

and thus a career was born. My first band, The Surfers, was formed. 

Remember, The Beach Boys were one of the top groups then. Well, all 

musical journeys need to start somewhere!

Little did I know in the sixth grade that I would end up in LA and Nashville 

recording songs I’d written! Little did I know that I would discover what it

 meant to follow Jesus! But the Lord captured my heart, and my music, and 

has taken me on a journey around the world to over fifty countries and 

every state in America.

Being a part of the early days of contemporary Christian music or “Jesus Music” 

as we called it in the 70’s was as exciting as blazing the new frontiers 

of the wild west!

This was radical music for its time and just to see a drum set in a church 

sanctuary was a marvel unto itself!

Times have certainly changed since the days when Larry Norman cried out, 

“Why Should The Devil Have All The Good Music?” Hundreds and hundreds 

of music and worship CDs by so many talented Christian musicians have proven 

that the music of the Kingdom marches on with each generation as they express

 their adoration of our Redeemer.

My songs are all a part of my journey. I once said that they are my confessions. 

They are also my profession: a profession of faith in the excellency of God! 

To declare the supremacy of Christ through music, worship and mission is the 

heart of all I do and all I sing. Soli Deo Gloria!

PS: And by the way, I got to meet The Beach Boys!

Ahava Love Letter (#53) - "We Speak To Nations"

“We Speak To Nations” “So I give thanks to you, Adonai, among the nations; sing praises to Your name.” (2 Sam 22:50 CJB  Complete Jewish Bible)

Dear family of friends,

When my good wife Laurie and I went to China in 2002, we were representing Derek Prince Ministries, along with a small USA group smuggling in Chinese Bibles and Derek's teaching books. These particular treasured nuggets had been translated into Mandarin Chinese. In my personal carry-on I had also brought along the latest Integrity Music's CD of the Month. 

The disc had just come in the mail a few days before we left on this adventurous journey, so I was as excited as ever to hear this new one. It had become the newest edition in my 14 year long subscription collection of Integrity's Hosanna! Music. (Thank you Michael Coleman for your leadership at Integrity!)

That specific praise and worship CD, then rotating in my portable player, was Lakewood's "We Speak To Nations". (IPods had just come out the year before. Steve Jobs' latest Apple big tech craving was a bit above my budget.) The title song was also "We Speak To Nations."

As I sat on the 22 hour train ride from Guangzhou to Beijing, I played this song over and over again. The repeat button just stay on. And during that literal full day stretch of time, the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) made sure the sound and words would sink deep into my spirit. I am grateful He did.

During those long hours on the tracks (both train and CD - pun intended) I literally had tears running down my face, while I sat listening with ear buds on. I didn’t want to awaken the others as they slept.

The sound of the nations was calling out to my heart.

We can speak to nations in many ways. These days it is primarily through social media. But even still, a main format can still be by singing, in person.

As worship leaders who love Jesus (Yeshua), and thus the nations, my wife and I are committed to sing in and to the nations. Our hearts and eyes are especially lazar focused on Israel, whom we especially love.

And...Lord willing too, we plan on taking the Ahava Love Band with us to Jerusalem in 2014 - to do just that – sing His praise and worship in Eretz Yisrael (Land of Israel)!

Maybe there will be other locations the Lord will send us to, in addition, as we speak to nations.

Ahava (love in Hebrew) to my family of friends,

Steve Martin

Founder/President
