After working in the United States as a music minister, and after serving the Lord for 22 years in co-founding and co-leading a French-speaking church, he was free to work on what had become his heart\u2019s desire!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From Sunday to Sunday he visits Christian churches in the German and French-speaking parts of Switzerland and neighbouring regions. He sings the verses on which the sermon is based. That\u2019s how the double CD \u201c107 Bibelverse\u201d and in French \u201c120 versets de la Bible\u201d came into being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cSing the Bible\u201d vision also began to spread through his music students so that in March 2006 the \u201cSing the Bible\u201d team was formed. It consists of Susette Vogt, Damaris and Peter B\u00e4rtschi, Eliane and Charles Jann and others. The desire to have a team of composers was fulfilled. Now, more people can be reached thanks to a variety of different styles of music and different languages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After his conversion to Jesus Christ in 1973 Charles Jann kept wondering: how can we memorise and keep the word of God in our hearts?
