Inspired by a recent sermon from Pastor Kerry Fitts, I’ve been working on a new original composition: "Potter’s Wheel." The title comes from the the book of Jeremiah Chapter 18.
I wanted to capture a specific mood with this one—blending the sophisticated, rich harmonic landscape of a classic jazz standard with the raw, emotional power and melisma of Rhythm and Blues. It’s a song about the process of refining, surrender, and being shaped by the hands of the Creator.
Recording this in the studio brought a whole new level of meaning to the lyrics. There is something truly powerful about taking a timeless biblical truth and finding the right musical language to express it.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this musical direction. Do you have a favorite song that blends different genres to tell a story? Let’s talk music in the comments!
