"Your Kingdom - Live" by Justin Barnett: Anticipating Christ's Eternal Reign


Justin Barnett's "Your Kingdom—Live" captures the heart of anticipation and encourages us to think about what it means to long for Christ's return. A song that was recorded at Riverside Revival in East Nashville and written by John Chisum & Bonnie J. Barbey. 

Justin Barnett - Your Kingdom - LiveThe song looks at the fact that we're already citizens of heaven and that we ache for the day when Christ's kingdom fully comes. It makes it clear that we live between a promise and the fulfillment of that promise. Barnett sings about Christ's kingdom being characterized by love, mercy, and power, and how it touches our present reality. 

The lyrics encourage us to recognize our identity in Christ. We are "children of light," and are called to lift our praises and anticipate the moment "when we look on Your face." The lyrics also links its message to the Lord's prayer, "let Your kingdom come, let Your will be done, on earth as in heaven," where the prayer is both a petition to God and a proclamation of our faith. 

Go ahead and give this song a listen. May it help to grow your longing and remind you of your ultimate citizenship, as children of light, sons and daughters of a Heavenly Father, where we may stand together as the children of Heaven.

(Related scripture: Matthew 6:9-10; 2. 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 22:20)

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...

"Coming Out Of Babylon" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Finding Purpose and Joy in Christ

Robert Peterson had barely dusted off his drum kit when the Lord handed him a new setlist. Robert shares: "this current round of songs being created were different - they were all his - well sort of all his." He had decided it was time to offer up his talents to the Lord. Robert writes: "I was mortified at the thought of actually giving my life to Him. I didn't want to give up who I thought I was."   "Coming Out of Babylon" is the first song coming out of this change (one that was on the shelve a while pending creation of a intro). The result is a five-minute testimony that turns a trembling surrender into a victory march. As you listen, you can feel how this slow ache of "doing what I wanted to… without a fear" transitions into the realization that "I needed You - all the way."   What I enjoy about the song is that it helps to see "leaving" as the first step that is needed to following His calling for us. The chorus emph...
