If you remember a 90’s christian band called MORTAL, you may remember their first album LUSIS back in 1992. This cover song is called ENFLESHED(The Word Is Alive) & i love the lyrics! Ultimately- Nothing will stop God’s WORD & His purposes despite a world in chaos. To God be the glory! This song is on all digital platforms & links are at https://iamwanus.com/ (I own this cover song & the lyric video)

Like the prophet Jeremiah said the word of God is like a fire shut up in my bones!

Join us for an in-depth conversation with Rusty Harmon, veteran music executive and founder of Vere Music. From managing Hootie & the Blowfish at the height of their career to launching Vere Music with global distribution through Warner’s ADA, Rusty has seen it all in the music industry. In this interview, he shares what led him to focus on Christian and worship artists, how Vere Music is filling a gap in artist development in the faith-based space, and the importance of grassroots marketing that still works today. Rusty also opens up about his personal journey of faith and sobriety, his passion for teaching at Lipscomb University, and the exciting partnership between Vere and the Imagine House student-led record label.

It is about time for a good throwback worship song with a modern touch! Some lyrics just deserve to be sung again throughout the generations. Check out CeCe Winans and Darlene Zschech in this video as they lead a powerful ‘Shout to the Lord’ performance.

Darlene begins with confidence and joy. She leads verse one with such adoration and excitement that her voice takes you back to the original recording. Cece comes in on verse two with the power and flair that she always brings. 

The two artists are having the best time worshiping their Savior together. The atmosphere is incredible. There is an audience of a choir circled around a living room setting with various instruments. Michael W. Smith is seen on piano. 

Your heart will be moved alongside these phenomenal artists. This is not a performance but an invitation to join them in genuine worship to the Father. Towards the end, there is a spontaneous moment of worship, and these two powerhouse leaders sing together. 

They join each other in the middle of the room, arms around each other. It is a moving moment to watch and experience the sweetness of sisterhood and the family of Christ. CeCe stands in awe, Darlene raises a hand, and then we see Michael W. Smith raise both of his arms in adoration after the song. There is a still, holy moment that is captured on camera, and we are able to be a part of it. 

This is a must-see video that will welcome you to awareness of the Spirit of God at work. It is beautiful. Be blessed, and take the time to sing or shout with them in true praise and celebration of the security we have in our hope of Jesus Christ. 

There are many promises that God grants His children. One in particular is John 16:33.
 
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

This moving family performance of the beloved hymn ‘Love Lifted Me’ is so endearing. The live performance shows three generations singing the gospel together. Play the video to see it!

The four family members consist of a pair of grandparents, Jack and Mary Siemens, a daughter, Rosemary Siemens, and her young son, Theodore Parker Bennett. They wear matching blue and sing and play instruments together. It’s wonderful to hear the range and variety of voices displayed here. Mary plays the piano, and Rosemary and her son each play the violin. 

It’s so sweet to see little Theodore, who looks about 6, sing in his gentle and childlike voice–especially when he has solos. To hear all three generations singing together is something really very special. They harmonize so well together and are masters of their instruments. The hymn they’ve chosen offers a timeless message of God’s love, which can touch even the most broken-hearted people. It’s a very uplifting message. Some of the words in the hymn are: 

Love so mighty and so true
Merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too, to Him belongs.
Love lifted me

The hymn was written in 1912 by two friends, James Rowe and Howard E. Smith. James’s daughter said that he suffered from severe arthritis and knotted hands, but he was still dedicated to making gospel hymns and playing the piano. The hymn is based on the passage in Matthew chapter 6, where Peter walks on water but becomes afraid, and Jesus lifts him out of the water. 

The song is a sung testimony of God’s love and impact in our lives, and it’s marvelous to hear a family like the Siemens sing it together. 

“Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.” Psalms 136: 1

A praise and worship team turned in a stunning rendition of Phil Wickham's "This is Our God." Their cover of the beloved song is one version that you'll want to listen to repeatedly. Watch the short but moving clip to listen to and see the praise and worship team perform "This is Our God."

When it comes to contemporary Christian music, not many names are bigger than Phil Wickham's. He is one of the most talented and recognizable musicians in Christian music today. Lauren Daigle is the only other person who comes close to him in terms of popularity. Everything Phil puts out seems to immediately become a massive hit, with churches gravitating to it and including his music in their worship services.

Even those who are not fans of contemporary Christian music are still likely familiar with Phil's music, even if they aren't aware of it. He has had songs that have gone on to become classics, with many able to sing his tunes entirely from memory. In a clip posted on YouTube, a church's praise and worship team performed what is arguably Phil's biggest hit, "This is Our God."

It's nearly impossible to listen to "This is Our God" and not sing along. It's an uplifting and encouraging tune about God's love, power and grace. You can't listen to that song and not leave in a better mood. The lyrics are powerful!

"Remember those giants we called death and grave?
They were like mountains that stood in our way
But He came, and He died, and He rose
Those giants are dead now"

With His death on the cross, Christ has forever won the victory over sin, death and shame. He did all that for you and me, and it's nothing we could ever deserve, and His forgiveness and love are gifts freely available to all. 

Ephesians 2:8 "Because by grace you have salvation through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is given by God."

Join us for an exclusive conversation with two-time GRAMMY Award-winning Christian singer-songwriter Zach Williams as he opens up about his brand-new album 'Jesus Loves,' out September 19. Zach shares why this project is his most personal to date, the heart behind songs like 'Hello, Hallelujah,' 'Hated,' and 'Wait for Me,' and how being honest about struggles and brokenness points us to the hope we find in Christ. We also talk about the evolving sound of Christian music, Zach’s upcoming collaborations, and his jam-packed tour schedule, including headlining shows and the highly anticipated Third Day reunion tour.

Christian singer-songwriter Ben Fuller gives us an intimate, acoustic performance of his song 'Black Sheep' at the GodTube Music Studio in Nashville. The track is featured on his new album 'Walk Through Fire,' available now.

Josh Wright joins us in Nashville to talk about his long-awaited debut album, Lead, out now. From his roots on a Texas farm to his journey through Belmont, American Idol, and over a decade of leading worship at Nashville Life, Josh shares the story behind stepping away from music, and what brought him back. In this conversation, he opens up about the heart behind Lead, the meaning of its title track, and the collaborations with friends like Blessing Offor, Jamie MacDonald, Byron “Mr. Talkbox” Chambers, and more. He also reflects on balancing music with his real estate career, the seven years he laid music down, and how God used that season to prepare him for this moment.

This family’s uplifting rendition of ‘Victory in Jesus’ will have you praising God along with them. The six brothers sound wonderful together. Play the video to hear them harmonize. 

It’s amazing to see six young brothers of various ages come together to sing. While other kids are playing video games, these kids are showing their faith in action as they offer a performance to God. 

“Here is one of our all time favorites, ‘Victory in Jesus,’” the Kuykendall brothers said. “We pray that you experience victory that can only come from HIM!”

The oldest brother gracefully plays the piano in the video as the younger ones stand behind him and sing. They all wear collared shirts and seem to display a love for music. They don’t just come together in song, but in spirit, too. Their chosen song sounds wonderful to the ears, as it reminds us of Jesus’ sacrifice and eternal life. Some of the lyrics of the hymn are: 

I heard about His healing, of His cleansing power revealing
How He made the lame to walk again and 'caused the blind to see
And then I cried, "Dear Jesus, come and heal my broken spirit"
And somehow Jesus came and brought to me the victory

The Kuykendall family regularly sings about faith on their YouTube channel. Other recent songs they’ve covered  include “Gratitude,” “I Walked Today Where Jesus Walked,” and “Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me.” 

Their cover of “Victory in Jesus” feels heartwarming and powerful. The family displays their faith and reverence through songs like these, and they are a treasure to hear and sing along to. 

“Anything which comes from God is able to overcome the world: and the power by which we have overcome the world is our faith,” 1 John 5:4

A teen delivers a beautiful cover of ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ in a crowded street, and passersby are stunned. Karolina Protsenko’s cover is absolutely beautiful. Play the video to hear it. 

The 16-year-old, known for her proficient violin skills, traded her instrument for a microphone for this cover. She shares lots of covers on her YouTube channels, and her violin cover of “Pirates Of The Caribbean” has garnered nearly 4 million views. It turns out she’s just as talented at singing as she is at playing the violin. 

The young girl was born in Ukraine before moving to America. Some of her other violin covers are Queen’s ‘We Are The Champions,’ The Beatles’ ‘Twist and Shout,’ and Alphaville’s ‘Forever Young.’ Some of her other voice covers are ‘What Was I Made For,’ ‘Stand By Me,’ and ‘Put Your Records On.’  Her parents and little brother also occasionally perform with her. 

Karolina’s mother, Ella Protsenko, accompanies her on the piano as she sings ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water.’ As Karolina sang the words, many people stopped to hear her voice. A little girl and an old woman even danced in front of her as she sang, which is an excellent compliment to any singer. 

Some of the words from the song, ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water,’ are:

I'm on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can't be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

It’s a beautiful song about selflessness and support for loved ones. The word imagery is even more powerful than “a shoulder to lean on.” It implies that there is nothing more important than being there for a friend or loved one. 

It’s easy to see that Karolina is tremendously talented and has a bright future in the music space. After you listen to this cover, you’ll return to it to hear it again.

This trio’s moving “How Great Thou Art” rendition will give you chills as you watch and listen. Amos Raber sings the song in the Alaskan wilderness with his two eldest sons, and it is wonderful to hear. Play the video to see and hear God’s beautiful creations. 

It’s great to hear this song sung with such skill all on its own, but as you listen to the trio sing and watch the beautiful Alaskan scenery, you can’t help but reflect on some of the song’s lyrics:

Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

“How Great Thou Art was the perfect expression of worship as we sat surrounded by the handiwork of the Creator Himself!” Amos said. 

The father and his sons sing most of the song standing in a boat on a beautiful lake surrounded by snow-capped mountains. It’s easy to see why they chose this song, which speaks of God’s handiwork in nature and Jesus’ selfless sacrifice. It’s not just a musical experience, but an experience of wonder and peaceful reflection.

Amos and his sons cover the song excellently as they harmonize together in the wilderness. Their voices blend seamlessly. The video includes not just their sound but also some nature sounds and instruments, like the flute, guitar, and drums. It’s a wonderful reminder of how families can worship together to give Him glory. 

It’s also a reminder of how peaceful it can be to slow down and take in the beautiful nature that He created for us to live in.  

“The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament showeth his handiwork.” Psalms 19: 1

Anne Wilson has released the powerful official music video for her latest song, “God Story.” The beautifully written and performed tune is about the Lord doing what only He can in our lives. Watch the short but moving clip to listen to and see Anne’s official music video for “God Story.”

People are a lost and broken group, with many hurting and struggling as they call out for any kind of momentary relief from their heart-wrenching, painful circumstances. Whether through wrong and erroneous decisions they’ve made or through no fault of their own, many are facing enormous obstacles and hurdles in life. Some may even reach the point where they believe that going on any further is a completely worthless and pointless exercise.

But God is still at work, and He is still in the business of performing miracles. He can and does bring about hope where there was none. He interjects life when everything appears to be lost. He can and does take situations in our lives and work miracles, completely changing conditions and circumstances.

In her tune, “God Story,” Anne sings about God performing these miracles, giving her a testimony – a God story, as she calls it. It’s a beautiful song about the power and love of Jesus Christ and how He can take things once thought broken and make them whole again. No one else but God can do that, and He does it every day.

Anne’s entire song is moving, likely to cause you to shed a tear as you remember a time when He performed a miracle in your life, but the song’s chorus is especially powerful.

“My life is a God story
Gotta tell the world what He’s done for me
Miracle on miracles that only He could do
I’m proof that we’re all only one prayer away from a testimony”

What is your God story? How did He work in your life?

Psalm 77:14 “You are the God who does works of power: you have made your strength clear to the nations.”
