The ways of God are mysterious. I was born and grew up in Lithuania. My path to the field of worship music began some decades ago - started as a choir member in a local worship music jazz-style project, and later I played acoustic guitar in the ensemble of this group. Around the same time, my wife and I released a CD of our own songs "Let's Enjoy" (https://renatapoce.bandcamp.com/). A few years later, when asked about further plans, I then replied that I only see the meaning of creativity (if any) in the music of God's praise. I said it spontaneously and didn’t think (because we don’t know, and the Lord knows). And here, some years later, someone in me pushed me to take up the books of the Psalms again and to convey the important messages set out in them in the style of rock music. And then from somewhere, from mysteries unknown to me, one after another, in a relatively short period of time, songs began to be born, and so the word became flesh. This whole Soli Deo Gloria project took about 2 years from the birth of the idea to the release of digital media (am on the way to vinyl publishing). If very briefly, for this project (S.D.G. - Soli Deo Gloria) I brought together local musicians I know to record in the studio and invited other musicians from other countries in the world who kindly responded positively and joined the project, and with the help of the Lord, we did so. And thus, by firmly saying "Yes" to God, we can contribute to the spread of God's word to listeners around the world. I took rock-style music (with which I grew up) as the best suited for this project, so I chose it as a means of expression. I hope that we, as a global team, and I personally, have succeeded. Thank God for that. Currently, S.D.G. project develops further and joined into cooperation with UK singer & songwriter Peter Simon Bailey to produce strong, positive, and faithful messages to the listener!
Honest worship starts exactly where your pain is. Years of loss pushed the songwriter behind “You Are Holy” into a wilderness. Loved ones died, jobs and homes disappeared, health and finances faltered, and a church plant that failed. Most worship songs felt dishonest to him during that season, so the Psalms became his lifeline. “You Are Holy” sits down beside you and tells the truth. “It’s hard to be patient with nothing but time.” “It’s hard to be hopeful when everything dies.” Have you ever whispered something like that? That’s okay, it’s what we do next that makes a difference! “Yet though I am suffering, I’ll trust in Your name.” David faced that same kind of challenge in Psalm 13. He opens with “How long, O LORD?” and lands here: “But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.” His circumstances barely moved between the first verse and verse five, but his gaze did. You can do the same today. Be honest with God. Tell Him exactly how heavy e...
Peace begins in a willing heart. When did you last open your own time capsule? Avery Stafford found a time capsule somewhere in his mind and opens it in his song “My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)”. His time capsule contained a Folgers can filled with buttons and thread, a crystal globe, a denim patch, and the scent of Avon cologne. Seemingly ordinary treasures, but each one carries a Christmas that he’s never stopped loving. Avery blends gospel warmth with soulful pop to speak to the child in all of us, the child who still believes that Love leads the way. In the bridge, he wishes that child well, “forever dancing under the starlight with stories yet to tell.” The song also reminds us that memories alone cannot fix a restless / broken world, and he knows it: “We long for happily ever afters, but none of us really knows.” So where does peace begin? Not in a headline, a treaty, the outcome of the midterms, or a December calendar. Paul gives us an answer in Colossians 3:15: “And...
Where do you find hope this Christmas? “The Manger King” by Prestonwood Worship opens with a question and gives you no time to dodge it: “Can you hear it? Can you see it now?” A strong male lead and a full choir carry the song, with strings, piano, synths and drums building a sound big enough for the news it brings. The news is Emmanuel, “God with us” . Matthew 1:22–23 gives the name its meaning: “All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us)” . Think about that. The Creator of Heaven and Earth chose a feeding trough, a cold night, and a poor family. He didn’t shout from a distance. He came close enough to touch. The lyrics make it clear how Love came, “In the silence, heaven touched the ground.” Does your silence feel heavy? Are you going through a hard season, a strained family table, confronted with an empty chair? Do you believe He enters ...
