“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” Matthew 5:9

The ringing bell is an album of action. Specifically the action called peace. With his latest, Derek challenges us to an actionable peace that is active and aggressive. Often used as a noun but rarely as a verb, peace is commonly misused, falsely defined and often flies under the flag of convenience.

THE RINGING BELL sounds the clarion call to demonstrate a love that is not just convenient, but is chasing after the best for all our fellow men Moving from the more stark pallet featured on his latest, Derek paints with all the musical brushes available to him on this latest work. This upbeat, electric guitar based, recording, provides the perfect accompaniment to the challenge of demonstrating an active peace just as Christ did. “The place where peace starts is between two people and how they handle a disagreement. If I'm really serious about peace, I have to love people more than I love ideas.” Derek Webb
