Song and Story for
Healing and Hope

David Kauffman
Singer, Songwriter, Friend

David began this journey over 40 years ago with one simple mission: To create song and story for healing & hope‍, leading to connection and belonging within community. Bill Gokelman joined David in the ‘90s and Good For The Soul Music was born.

Through this work, our vision is to eradicate loneliness and isolation. A big task, yet with God working in and through us, why not?

Our Musical Productions

  • “I wanted to reach out and thank you personally for the music you brought to my small community. This is healing for sure - as tears are often a release of what we hold inside that needs to come out. It was surely that way for me.”

  • “You, and your music, touched my heart. Thank you for using your gifts and talents in such a beautiful way.”

  • “As a member of our church choir, we sing your Mass of Renewal every Sunday. We love the beautiful, majestic Gloria and the sacred Mystery of Faith and Agnus Dei. The best part is hearing the congregation sing along with us. We often smile at each other as we realize the folks in the pews are drowning out our SATB voices in the loft. And we love it!”

  • “I’m an 80-year-old woman who quietly listens to your Surrender collection of songs. It brings me so much peace. God bless you and thank you!”

  • “I especially get a lot from your stories. They hit me just in the right spot. I LOVE the COJO format of story and song. Thank you. God is good.”

  • “Your songs define all that I feel.”

  • “God has used your music so much for me over the years and I have shared your songs with others, and they drew closer to God.”
