'Abel to Jesus' by E. James Smith: A Melodious Journey from Beginnings to Aspirations


E. James Smith's new song 'Abel to Jesus' is a song with a strong rock base, a soulful horn section, and lively choral vocals. The story of this song, 'Abel to Jesus', tells something we all know too well: the ups and downs of life form us into who we are. Through faith, we have the confidence that all of these experiences are molding us into who we were meant to be. As a result, the name we've been given or the problems we've faced don't really matter. What really shapes us is allowing God to use these experiences to help us grow, improve and ultimately, do our best. Through the raw honesty of Smith's lyrics, the essence of our humanity finds a voice. 

E. James Smith - Abel to JesusJust as fascinating is the fact that Smith got the idea for 'Abel to Jesus' from looking through a phone book. I doubt if 'Abel de Jesus' realizes that his name helped to spark a masterful song of faith. A song highlighting that the journey from 'Abel,' who represents our beginning, to 'Jesus,' who represents how we strive to be the best version of ourselves, is both unique to each of us and shared by everyone.  

'Abel to Jesus' by E. James Smith is not only inspiring, but masterfully combines all of our complex human experiences into a beautiful song to reflect life's journey in general. It's a song that makes us reflect, resonate, and stirs our hearts. Give it a listen. Let it speak to your heart as you clap along to its energizing tune.

"Dancing In Your Light" by Ora Street Mission Band: Shining Through Everyday Acts

Ora Street Mission Band put their finger on something important with "Dancing In Your Light." It's the fact that (as Christians) we don't generate our own light, we reflect God's light. It's like the moon reflecting the sun at night. As Christians, we are called to be lights to the world! The vibe of the song draws from a rich musical palette, inspired by The Police, Weather Report, and Toto, giving the song a contemporary groove that matches the song's present-day message. The song encourages you to come into action. So, what does it look like to live as a bearer of His light? The lyrics try to compare this with a firefly lit from within, and a lighthouse holding firm before a raging sea. Each comparison points to the same truth… His light is given to be shared with others. "If he has illuminated you, then fly and be free!" Jesus declared, "I am the light of the world." This song turns that fact into a call to action. Shine, move, and...

"What's That I Hear? (Murrell Ewing Cover)" by The Fosters: When Gospel Comes Home

What if one song could make you feel the pull of heaven so strongly that your heart wishes: "Please don't wake me // For soon the eastern sky will part and I'll see His face." That's exactly what The Fosters deliver with their reimagining of Murrell & Joan Ewing's 1978 classic, "What's That I Hear?" Originally a staple of Rev. Murrell Ewing's ministry and later recorded by various southern gospel legends, this song has been brought home, straight back to its Pentecostal roots. Andrew, Devi, and their three children breathe new life into it, layering family harmony over a real brass section that powers a Sunday morning revival. The longing that is at the heart of this song is unmistakable: "This old world has lost its charm; it's no place for me." It touches a feeling that many believers know quite well, a sense of restlessness and longing for something larger than what this earthly life has to offer. The song reminds us th...

"Living Proof" by Island Tribe Collective: When His People Unite, Mountains Move

(by Jasper Tan) "Living Proof" by Island Tribe Collective (featuring Sherwin Gardner, Marc Isaacs, and Alicia Taylor) is a live recording of a powerful, high-energy worship anthem that embodies what the collective calls "Caribbean Worship." The group invites us into a celebration of faith, utilizing the culture from the Caribbean islands and how they express it as a living proof of God's goodness. The song talks about our faith and the new beginnings that are promised to us after we overcome our struggles and hardships. Their repeated proclamation of "Lord, I'm living proof" aims to drive down the message that each one of us is already a living proof of God's faithfulness love, and mercy. We all have our own unique faith experiences and stories that could somehow inspire the people around us. So for those of us who have been know for our strong faith, being able to overcome our struggles and testify about it, brings a more concrete testimony an...
