Little Strummer Boy is meant to prepare our hearts for worship this Christmas. As the subtitle suggests, this album is about the fact that "heaven is opened" and that God's ultimate intention in sending His Son is that He would be with us and bring peace on earth to men, on whom His favor rests (Luke 2:14). God is not mad at you. He misses you!

Refocusing our attention on worship and the prophetic nature of the season, this album is not the standard commercial project. The album features a collection of original music by John and some of the best-loved carols of Christmas. Creative arrangements of acoustic guitar, Native American flute, violin, bells, and hand drums flow together in a worshipful celebration of the birth of Jesus. The songs on the album range from full instrumentation to simple vocal harmonies, and from carefully composed carols to raw, spontaneous worship.

Fun-fact: This was John’s first self-produced album, released in 2009.
