Pictures In The Sky is the second solo album by songwriter Rich Mullins and was released in 1987 on Reunion Records.
This album included the first appearance of the song "Screen Door," which went on to be a long-time concert favorite among Rich Mullins fans. When performed in concert, Mullins and band would sing the lyrics and perform the song's unique rhythm by hitting plastic cups on a table in a synchronized pattern. The song was even reportedly mentioned in a question on the popular television game show Jeopardy. A longer version of the song was also recorded around this time which appeared on radio singles. The longer version did not appear on a consumer CD until 1996's Songs compilation.
