Mama Tee, Awipi, and Tina Philips Bring Joy with 'The Angel's Message (Afro Christmas)'


Mama Tee, Awipi, and Tina Philips - The Angel's Message (Afro Christmas)

Mama Tee, Awipi, and Tina Philips released an inspiring medley of timeless Christmas classics, 'The Angel's Message (Afro Christmas).' A medley that beautifully blends familiar melodies like "Ding Dong Merrily on High," "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," "Gloria in Excelsis Deo," and "The Little Drummer Boy," songs with lyrics that are centered around the angel Gabriel's messages. 

The lyrics tell how the shepherds were watching their sheep at night when the angel Gabriel came with the news that Jesus had been born. The praise, "Glory to God in the highest," sets the tone for a most inclusive celebration that is passed down through the generations. Gabriel's message brings hope and divine love, reminding us that Christ's birth is a fulfillment of prophecy, a gift of peace, and a reconciliation for humanity. It's a message to cherish every day of our lives. 

As the song declares Jesus as Immanuel, "God with us," it's giving us a gentle reminder of His presence in our daily lives. May this Afro-Christmas medley not only connect you to the divine story but also invite you to accept Him as your Lord and Savior, and help you to celebrate His gift to us with joy and gratitude.

(Related scripture: Luke 2:8-11; Luke 1:26-31; Matthew 1:22-23)

"Take the Wheel" by Bonnie Jean Bailey: Why Surrender Feels So Hard

What are you still holding on to instead of giving it to God?  Three in the morning has a way of exposing what we’ve been avoiding all day. Bonnie Jean Bailey knows that hour well. In her song “Take the Wheel,” she sings about the tossing and turning, being “sick and tired of all this worrying,” and bags so heavy they threaten to burst. Can you picture that? Most of us carry something similar. Possibly we don’t call it a levy as Bonnie does, but the burden isn’t less.  Bonnie points out a pattern that we need to be aware of… “Every time I try to hand it over, I take it back cuz I need control of everything.” Does this sound familiar? We pray about something that is worrying us, feel a moment of relief, and then quietly pick up the burden again an hour or so later.  Bonnie isn’t preaching from a distance here. She’s describing her own tug-of-war between fear and faith. And to be honest, that could also be my tug-of-war that she is describing. Is it also your tug-of-war a...

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...
