Touching the hearts of all who hunger for more of God | Posted June-04-2025
There are times in life when words fall short, when language isn't able to capture the depths of our cry for God. “Tongues of Fire” was created in one of those moments.
Vel Colins found himself in the quiet of his prayer room during a season of intense spiritual hunger. He had been seeking God, not just His blessings, but His presence. Surrounded by silence, he whispered a simple prayer: “Lord, fill me afresh.” What followed was more than inspiration; it was impartation.
As he worshiped, he felt a rush of divine energy, like wind and flame colliding in the spirit. Scriptures flooded his mind: “And there appeared to them tongues as of fire…” (Acts 2:3). It was as if heaven was reminding him that the power of the early Church—boldness, healing, miracles—was still available today through the Holy Spirit.
Out of that encounter came a song, “Tongues of Fire”, a cry for revival, a sound of surrender, and a call for the Spirit to fall afresh. The melody, raw and urgent, mirrors the power of Pentecost. The lyrics are not just poetic—they’re prophetic.
Vel Colins didn’t write this song to impress. He released it to ignite, to stir up gifts, awaken hearts, and usher listeners into a deeper encounter with the fire of God.
An Open Conversation with God | Posted May-19-2025 Taylor Charmayne released “yeah, yeah”, an open heart-to-heart conversation with God that is very relatable. As a secular pop artist, Taylor Charmayne was heavily sought after by record labels, high-level music executives, and producers. One day (what she calls her Damascus moment) she realized that her music wasn't in accordance with God’s direction for her life and left her secular pop career behind. Taylor found herself on a new quest, where she shares a message of healing, redemption, and salvation through Jesus Christ.
"yeah, yeah" captures a tension that most of us are quite familiar with, the struggle between doubt and trust. Taylor also reminds us that God is right by our side, even in life’s hardest moments.
Lyrics like “I don’t always believe what You promise, but you still workin’ miracles, yeah regardless” are so familiar and real. Taylor doesn’t shy away from her vulnerabilities, and nor should we, admitting her struggles to God, while hanging onto His grace: “You silence the darkness, light up my heart with truth.” And when she sings, “If I need lovin’ from above // it’s yeah yeah // I hit Your line You pick it up // it’s yeah yeah // when I reach out to feel your touch // it’s yeah yeah” we realize that this is His promise in action, and His promise also applies to you!
Joined by Jaicko Lawrence and Mike Teezy, this track beautifully combines worship and her testimony. A beautiful song for anyone that has felt (or feels) torn between faith and fear. May this song meet you where you are and help you to lift your eyes to God. His promises are for you!
Finding Hope When Answers Are Silent | Posted May-07-2025 There’s something very real about waiting, maybe even challenging, especially when it seems to us that God has gone quiet. In this EP "The Waiting" Olly Kiff jumps right into that tension by sharing a very personal journey of struggling with doubt, uncertainty, and ultimately surrendering to God. Sure, this EP is loaded with great music, but the biggest takeaway from this EP is that fact that each of us can all find beauty in the messiness of faith. The six songs on the EP will help you to see this beauty.
The EP kicks off with the song "My God Says". Olly starts the song with his struggle: “Staring at this empty page looking for a plan, God have You forsaken me?” It's a song that reflects on contrasting feelings of doubt and faith, where we are questioning God's presence and at the same time find reassurance in His promises. A feeling of directionlessness and a still, soft voice reminding us of past faithfulness. It’s a reminder that even if we think He is silent, it doesn't mean that He has left us.
Then comes "Trust," the realization that our salvation and glory rest in God. He is our rock and refuge. We can pour out our heart to Him, share our darkest thoughts, and know that He will show us the way and open our eyes to the truth. Our dependence on God isn’t a weakness; it's a strength. There is no shame in calling out, “I need You, I need You Lord!”
"Even Here (In the Waiting)" continues with the theme of trust. It's about the loneliness and confusion we often feel when answers don’t come quickly. “Longing just to know You’re here with me”. The song includes a reminder that God doesn’t abandon us, even when answers seem far away.
"I Need You" looks at our true driver for a relationship with God. Are we just moving our lips, saying the words, or do we want that intimacy, “Draw me close, let Your love encompass me.” Trust and relationships grow when we allow ourselves to be held by God.
"Always Near", the knowledge that He is always with us, even in our weakest moments. Living with trust and devotion, knowing that He brings strength, peace, and joy, and He grounds our lives in His love.
The lyrics in the song "Rest" acknowledge our tendency to try going through life on our own and ask, "Teach me to hear Your voice speak through the noise // Teach me to trust Your hand through it all." It is through surrender and waiting for His timing that we will find freedom: “If You say wait, I’ll wait… right here in Your arms I’ll just rest.”
This EP is a beautiful roadmap for anyone that struggles with the waiting. Go ahead and give it a listen. May these songs carry your heart closer to Him.
Crying Out to Our Ever-Present God | Posted April-24-2025 Our Father is the latest release that completes Yemi's latest EP, "YHWH". An EP with 5 songs and one instrumental track to help us grow our relationship with our Father. Yemi brings us a message that the the world is thirsting to hear. In Our Father, you will recognize most of the lyrics as the Lord's Prayer.
When we cry out to God , we're not praying to a distant, uninvolved, abstract thing called “god.” We are praying to the living God, our Father who “abound[s] in faithful love” (Psalm 86:15). We are crying out to a protective Father who is full of love, courage and wisdom. And His answer is always, “I'm is here. I’ve got you.”
Heavenly Father is not a deadbeat father. He is near. He is present. His concern for us touches our biggest problems and smallest details. He hears our cries before we ever speak a word.
Heavenly Father fills in all the gaps where earthly fathers fail. Do you need to cry out to your Father today? Do you desperately need rescue and His peaceful, protecting presence? May this EP help you to make that connection today! HE is eagerly waiting for you to call to Him, waiting to come to your rescue, and accompany you with everything you do.

Born from k4g3 journey through personal setbacks and creative challenges, this song is a new milestone in his CEDM journey. “I’m beyond the two years ,” k4g3 shares, hinting that he has already survived the music scene’s notorious “two-year rule.” Most new EDM artists quit within two years.

These fruits are reminders of God’s unchanging nature. The repeated chant of “Yeshua!” places Jesus at the center of the track, and celebrating His eternal reign.

Rediscovering Hope Through Mary’s Eyes | Posted April-12-2025
"Road of Wonder (Mary’s Song)" by Heidi Elgaard is an invitation to walk alongside Mary Magdalene, one of the pivotal people in Christianity. Released just in time for Holy Week, this song captures Mary's change from brokenness to unwavering devotion. The song starts with the lyrics, “When I first met Him, // I was shattered and broken,” Mary’s initial encounter with Jesus. With “a touch and a word,” her life gets an extreme makeover: “He brought back a life // I thought the demons had swallowed.”
Heidi beautifully describes Mary’s faith journey—her decision to follow Jesus, her anguish at the cross (“I wept by the cross but tears could not drown my sorrows”), and her awe at His resurrection: “That’s when you revealed to me your truth and your glory.” This song reminds us how Jesus reaches out and meets us in our darkest moments and calls us into purpose. Mary's faith journey is so relatable because it also mirrors parts of our faith journey!
“His lessons sound so simple // But they can be hard to live and breathe,” echoing thoughts that we also may have. On Sundays, we listen to teachings that seem simple, but as the week progresses, we realize that they may be more difficult to implement, bringing us back to our own struggles. The key is in what we do with His lessons. What choice did Mary make, and what choice will you make today? Will you travel this road alone?
Easter isn’t just about celebrating the resurrection of our Lord on the third day after his crucifixion. Mary shows us that it is also about our journey and how accepting His invitation will change it into a “road of wonder,” where He will travel by our side. If you’re looking for hope and renewal in your life, then this song is for you. Happy travels!

"King of Kings" is a CEDM track by k4g3, the kind of track and message that feels like a warm heavenly hug. k4g3 shares how the past two years have been like a rollercoaster ride, filled with personal struggles but also creative breakthroughs. “Even though it was super tough,” he reflects, “I’ve entered a new season of thankfulness.” That gratitude spills over into this upbeat track, with lyrics that celebrate God’s generosity and supreme authority.
k4g3 shares, "King of Kings is the first product of my dive into the electronic world of music. I have to say, I feel like I’ve surfaced clutching a massive pearl. I have been a fan of EDM and House music for the longest time, but for whatever reason, I never got into producing it - not until now."
The lyrics are simple yet powerful: “If you want it, you can have it // Pressed down, running over // It's a gift that is perfectly // From above.” He has a special gift for each of us, and this song is a reminder that every good thing comes from above. “He’s a King // He’s the King of Kings…” Not only does this track honor His sovereignty, it also invites us to be part of His triumph, with an EDM-infused celebration to spread the joy that we can only find in Him.

A Name Beyond Words | Posted March-26-2025
The making of Yemi Alafifuni's song "YHWH" is a journey of laughter and revelation, as well as anger and discovery. This song was triggered in response to a simple question with an eternal answer. Yemi shares, "I once heard a comedian ask—if the colonial masters, who claimed to be God-sent, truly knew the name of their God? The question, wrapped in humor, struck a nerve. Angry at the shallowness of the joke, I embarked on a personal quest to unearth the true name of my Father. My search led me beyond books, beyond theology—straight into the breath of existence itself. YHWH—the unspoken, yet ever-present name of God. A revelation hidden right beneath my nostrils, woven into every inhale, whispered with every exhale."
"YHWH" invites us to have our own personal experience with the name of God, Yahweh (YHWH), a name which is never spoken but is always there. Parts of the lyrics were inspired by scriptures, such as Exodus 3:14—"I AM WHO I AM"—and declare that every breath we take carries His name. Yemi shares: "A truth so profound that my very lungs depend on it. YHWH is a legacy—one that will echo through the voices of generations yet unborn. And in every breath, I find the greatest joy in simply calling His name."
The lyrics carry the reverence and awe with which we may utter His name: "I love to call your name / Yahweh Asher Yahweh... You’re the God who saves / And your love remains." We are reminded of His sufficiency, power, and unchanging nature. During our worship we may call Him "Father", "Abba", or "Yahweh Sabaoth" (Lord of Hosts), names that reflect both intimacy and His majesty. But most important is that His name conquers all and endures forever, "The name inside my lungs / The name that conquers all." He Brings into Existence Whatever Exists (Yahweh-Asher-Yahweh).
A Journey From Surrender to Celebration | Posted March-13-2025
The Offerings album is a collection of 8 songs that the band put together with the church's youth groups in mind! The songs offer us a powerful journey through worship, faith, and the realities of a life with Christ at its center. From the surrender of "Adonai" to the hope found in the song "Heaven", it invites us into deeper devotion even though we may be struggling with pain, purpose, and not understanding God’s unshakable presence. The songs "Foundation" and "Valley" remind us of His promises, while "This Life" encourages us to live fully on His terms. The songs "PEACE", "Friend of Sinners", and "I Claim" remind us that suffering isn’t wasted but is changed (transformed) through His grace.
Let's have a closer look at each song:
01. Adonai - Adonai is a call to surrender and worship, and to reflecting on why we often fall so short of fully obeying and praising God. The song invites us to offer our whole lives as an act of devotion to the One who is truly worthy—Adonai.
02. Heaven - Heaven, how does one even start to describe it? The lyrics in this song move away from the traditional imagery of serene angels with harps. Instead, the lyrics use other descriptions found in the scriptures, such as joyous feast and vibrant party. The song was written with youth and summer camps in mind. 'Heaven' is an upbeat description of what it will be like to be with Jesus!
03. Foundation - "Foundation" is a worship song about Christ, the unshakable cornerstone of faith. The lyrics stand still at His sacrifice—"killed for my salvation"—and His role as the "sure foundation" that replaces our shame with His mercy. The song invites us to build our lives on His grace, and declare, "I have only one foundation: Christ nailed upon the cross." This is such a powerful reminder that He is "The living stone // A sure foundation // My cornerstone."
04. This Life - "This Life" is a raw and honest song about choosing to fully embrace the life that God has set in His sight, even when it’s hard. The lyrics acknowledge how we can be struggling—"life can take me, break me"—but it also contains a a bold commitment to live a life filled with His purpose and intention, refusing to compromise or settle for less. "But my life is set in your every second // Details of this moment filled to the fullest // For a life that's set in your sight"
05. Valley - "Valley" is a powerful song of faith, one that has been around for a while with a message that never bores. God is always there for us, "In the darkest valley, Your victory gives me joy." The lyrics enourages us to look up when life pulls us down, "For Heaven's king walks with me", and remember that the pain we face is temporary. There is hope and strength in knowing that His victory endures, and His cross speaks freedom over each one of us.
06. Peace - “PEACE” was written after the devastation of two miscarriages. As is normal for the Red Letter Society team, “PEACE” is based off of text found within the Bible. During the season of grief the songwriters were able to remind eachother that God walks with us through the valley of the shadow of death (Psalm 23).
07. Friend of Sinners - Just like the King of Kings stoops to wash our feet, "Friend of Sinners" shows the paradox of Christ's holiness vs. meeting the brokenness of mankind. The song connects Christ's sacrifice on the cross, God's grace, the healing that comes from Him, and the fact that Jesus calls us friend. He is a Friend of all sinners who call on His name.
08. I Claim - Suffering has been part of life ever since Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden. And still, even in modern Christianity we struggle with life's pain. “I Claim” urges us, the Church, to see our earthly suffering as a pathway to glory in His presence. "If suffering in the present means glory in his presence // Then I claim, I claim Jesus’ holy name // It’s beyond comprehension how I join the resurrection // So I claim Jesus’ Holy Name"
May this journey from surrender to celebration remind you that no matter what struggles you face, His grace turns all things for His good. Heaven's king is eager to walk with you, if you let Him.
