About us

​
David and Alice were raised in Christian homes. The parents in both of their homes were dedicated Christians who sought to draw close to the Lord. Their parents also believed in and tried to follow God's personal leading in their lives even if this at times meant making decisions that the people around them did not always understand. Seeing these decisions of their parents and the blessed results of following the Lord's leading led David and Alice to firmly believe God had a good plan for them.
David and Alice married in their late twenties. God led them to this decision, but in different ways. Alice was praying about another young man and the thought came into her mind, "If anyone is for you, it is David Meyer." She told no one about this experience. We were friends but had never lived close enough to have any ongoing contact with each other.
​
About four years later, David was feeling the need of a partner. He was counseling with a dedicated and mature Christian friend who had years of experience in working with young people. When David asked about a young woman he had been attracted to the friend told him, "You don't need someone like that, you need someone like Alice Martin." Now David prayed until he had peace to pursue a relationship with Alice. He talked with Alice's father and with his approval entered into a courtship. After spending time together, studying and praying together we decided after about six months to get married.

When we had children, Alice noticed that they easily learned Bible stories that we read to them over and over. She wondered why this could not be done with the Bible itself, so she made a scrapbook of Psalm 23. She hand lettered the text, illustrated it with pictures from calendars and magazines and put a song at the end. Our son was almost three at the time and we read the Psalm 23 to him a number of times a day. After about a month, Jonathan was sitting on the couch one day looking at it by himself. As he turned the pages and looked at the pictures he was repeating the text!

Alice was excited and began making a new scrapbook about once a month for the next two and a half years. Jonathan could learn even some of the longer passages in about a month. Alice began getting together with other ladies in the church and making scrapbooks together. They developed picture files, bought old National Geographics from second hand stores, and we got a program so we could print the text in large type on our computer (that was in the days of DOS). Making all those scrapbooks was a lot of work. Other parents that heard about what we were doing, encouraged us to get them published.
As we began exploring that (we had no experience in publishing) we were providentially led to a lady who had written quite a number of chapter length scripture songs. This fit right in because now we could have a song as well as the pictures and text to help in the memory process. The Lord led us to artists and friends who could do the recording. So we have been in the publishing business since 1990.
David spent most of his career as a building contractor in WV and we homeschooled
Jonathan and Martha most of the way through high school. An important part of their
education was also working on construction jobs with Dad.

​The children now have families of their own and are homeschooling their children and
teaching them scripture songs.
