Ryan VanOrsdel is a 22 year old Christian musician playing in the Washington, DC / Baltimore area. He has been a Christian for 6 years. He is just releasing his second CD Humility is Beautiful which was recorded at Atwater Sound and Secret Sound in Maryland, then finished in Los Angeles, California at Capitol Records.

Ryan is not locked in to any particular style of music, but most of it lands on the rock side. Currently he is playing songs from Humility is Beautiful with a band called Anapra. The other members are Nate Grant (great drummer) and John Spiro (master of the bass). Ryan plays guitar and sings. Jeff Martin also sometimes steps in to play (killer guitar and sound FX).

Ryan's main goal is to be where God is at work in music and be part of what God is doing.

Story for "Paul": I was on a mission trip to Mexico and was going through a lot of difficult situations involving sickness, hunger and extreme cold at night. I got to thinking about Paul and how his life was difficult at every turn, yet it was also filled with adventure. The joy of getting to know God himself.

Story for "Passed Away": On a trip to Mexico God showed me the words of Galatians 2 "I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the son of God who loved me and gave himself for me." God allowed me to understand this scripture and this song came soon after that.

Story for "Beautiful Burn": This is a song about how God speaks through the word and when He does it is like fire in a man's bones. It can give life to the dead.
