Ken Bible

Ken Bible was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, and studied music composition at the College-Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati. During his closing years there, his interest was ignited in hymns and hymnology, and then in theology and the Bible. In his mid-twenties, he taught himself to read New Testament Greek, and some years later, Biblical Hebrew. This began his life-long passion for studying and communicating the Bible.

For 34 years he worked for a major church music publisher, Lillenas Publishing Company, in various capacities as editor, director, and product developer. He compiled hundreds of publications, including the million-selling collection, "Master Chorus Book," and was editor of the hymnal for the Church of the Nazarene, "Sing to the Lord".

Leaving Lillenas at the end of 2009, he focused on writing hymns and devotional material. His website, LNWhymns.com, provides over 450 of his hymns, most of which have recordings and companion devotional readings. "Pictures of God" is his 365-day devotional book, surveying 16 portraits of God, each drawn from Bible stories, Psalms, prophecies, and the life of Jesus.
