"Kingdom Things" by Martín Fredrick: Living for God’s Purpose


I'm stoked to share this awesome track by emerging artist Martín Fredrick called 'Kingdom Things.' It's actually his first fully written song, and it's all about what really counts from a heavenly perspective. Martín wanted to capture how we, as Christians, can really zero in on what matters to God each day. Martín shared his favorite line in the song, "this is only a preview." He explains, "When we truly live following God's ways here on earth, we're going to see only a small preview of what God intends for us when we get to heaven and live alongside Him." 

Martín Fredrick - Kingdom ThingsThe song's message is crystal clear: focus on God's kingdom, live each day with purpose (His purpose), see the world through God's eyes, and passionately pursue His will and presence in everything we do. 

The music combines Martín's touch together with various contributions by friends, making it a collaborative effort that feels so genuine. Ethan Sawyer played all of the electric guitars, Joel Gropp played all of the keyboards (organ and piano), and Russ Dalbke played the bass. Martín sang the lead vocal and background vocal and played both the acoustic guitar and drums. Caleb LaRoche mixed and mastered it. 

Martín hopes that the song will ignite a passion in you to actively pursue God. So, go ahead and give 'Kingdom Things' a listen—it's a real encouragement to live with His purpose!

Skillet - Valley of Death (CCM)

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society: Why This Song Unites the Church

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society is a Trinity-focused song that pulls you into worship. Written by Justin Tweito and Jordan West, the song calls us to return to the heart of our faith. The opening line, "How wonderful is the cross of Christ,"  draws us into praise.  The song invites us to repentance and faith, but more importantly, the lyrics magnify the Trinity: the Father's eternal plan, the Son's sacrifice, and the Spirit's ongoing work in us. The song celebrates how every part of God is involved in redeeming us!  Have you ever wondered how a song can feel so unifying? That's the beauty of this song! It calls us, the Church, to stand together in bold praise. Instead of focusing on what divides us, it points us upwards, looking to our God who is glorious in love, power, and purpose. It encourages us to see the love of the Father, the blood of the Son, and how it is applied by the Holy Spirit.  There's no abstract theology in this song… the ...

"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....
