"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!

"Spirit of God" by Joel Lane: Surrendering Hearts of Stone to the Holy Spirit

What dead places in your life need breath? “Spirit of God” by Joel Lane is written as a plea for the Holy Spirit to move among us, and shows us that our best response to spiritual dryness is surrender. It is the first release from his debut EP “Have Your Way,” recorded with Zac Carpenter of the worship collective Coming Kingdom. The song opens with a bold claim: “You make dry bones come alive.” Maybe you’re familiar with that kind of spiritual dryness. A marriage gone quiet. A prayer life that is running on habit, with routine words that sometimes make you wonder if they go up any higher than your ceiling. A heart that stopped feeling much of anything. Joel doesn’t ask God to just patch things up. He asks God for more: “Take our hearts of stone, breathe on us.” That’s a pretty brave prayer. Will you pray it? Ezekiel stood in more or less the same place (read Ezekiel 37:1–11). God sent him into a valley of scattered, bleached bones and asked a question that sounds impossible: “Can the...

"Whoop The Devil" by Destin Dumais: Standing in Christ's Authority

Who gave you the authority to stand firm? Destin Dumais opens his debut single with an amazing sound that excites, gets you up on your feet, and gets you ready to conquer. “Whoop The Devil” is a hard-hitting country-rock song with one clear message: As believers, we hold real authority in Christ! The song starts with a cowboy scene. “Gonna saddle up and ride, ain’t no place you can hide.” Then comes the line that makes an important difference: “Been deputized, authorized.” Nobody appoints himself to this work. The badge was handed over at Calvary. Jesus said it plainly in Luke 10:19: “Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.” Who gives the authority? Jesus does! This kind of confidence never relies on your strength, your mood, or your track record. This confidence rests on His name, and His name only! Does that now mean that our fears will disappear for good? Not always. Destin admits that...

"He Knew" by Krystal Dawn Land: The Cost Christ Chose Before the Cradle

Jesus knew everything, and He came anyway! Let’s go back to the birth of Jesus, a newborn lying in the manger, part of a larger plan and fully aware of where His path would end before He came to earth. Krystal Dawn Land’s song, “He Knew”, opens with a question that stops you cold, especially if you consider how you would respond: “What if He knew? What if He saw? What if He knew the pain He’d face to give it all?” This isn’t idle speculation. The song walks through the full arc of Jesus’ story, “from the cradle to the cross” , and insists that nothing that happened caught Him off guard. He saw the betrayal coming. He saw the doubt, the walking away, “some would not believe, some would walk away.” And still, as Krystal sings, “He did… He knew all along. He still came… to right every wrong.” That kind of foreknowledge changes how we read Isaiah 53:3–5, where the prophet describes the Messiah as “despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows.” Jesus wasn’t ambushed by suffering. He wal...
