"When a Charlotte-based pastor Tim Briggs dreamed of writing and releasing songs for the local Church, he also humbly embraced his musical limitations. Instead of abandoning the dream, he seized the opportunity to rally together a community of people to help bring his vision to life. "Over the years," Briggs explains, "my love for music and, more specifically, congregationally-sung music has grown. As I began exploring songwriting, I found myself writing music that I wanted to share but struggling to know-how. Quite frankly, I don't have the requisite skill set to be a recording artist or a worship leader. With that in mind, I began exploring creative ways to release my music out into the world. I started to ask myself, 'What if I had my artist friends, who are far more talented than me, help bring these songs to life?' The result was the creation of Folk Hymnal—a guild of church worship leaders creating theologically rich songs in an accessible and attractive way." --Worship Leader Magazine Artists who have contributed to Folk Hymnal include: Taylor Leonhardt, Stacy Lantz, Stewart Fenters, Nathan Storey, Justin Taylor, Tyson Matthews, Tyler Palmquist, and Kelly Graham.
