ONE OF US
The Miracle and the Mystery
Created by Claire Cloninger & Robert Sterling
Arranged & Orchestrated by Robert Sterling
The Christmas story reveals the most passionate love story of all time -- when God entered His own creation to rescue His fallen children by becoming one of them. At the center of the story, the message is this: God loved us so much that He became "One of Us."
That amazing truth is the focus and inspiration for the incredibly powerful Christmas musical One of Us, by the creative team of Claire Cloninger and Robert Sterling. One of Us offers a heartfelt musical experience that is warm with tradition and alive with biblical faith. From the intimate truth of the title song to the driving praise of "Again and Again," the songs explore and celebrate the miracle and the mystery that God chose to be "One of Us." Cloninger and Sterling creatively combine several familiar carols with two powerful modern Christmas favorites written by three composers well-known throughout the music world: "We All Bow Down" by Lenny LeBlanc, and "Peace" by Michael McDonald and Beth Nielsen-Chapman. Claire Cloninger's online production notes assist you in tailoring the production to fit your ministry.
This Christmas let those who sing, as well as those who listen, be moved by the wonder of our Creator who refused to leave us in our sin, but instead chose to become One of Us.
