[Album] Holy Fire – Sarahfaith

Talented Singer/Songwriter and devoted Worship Leader, SarahFaith has released a brand new album titled “Holy Fire”.

“Holy Fire” speaks about the Holiness of God and the transformative fire of the Holy Spirit to purify us by consuming temporal and unstable elements while refining the aspects of God’s kingdom within us.

As you continue the journey, you’ll inevitably arrive at a place of earnestly seeking more of God’s presence and responding with deep adoration for the beauty of Jesus. It’s important to approach this experience with care, for if you earnestly ask, God will generously bestow His presence upon you.

Holy Fire - Sarahfaith

Speaking about the inspiration behind the album, SarahFaith said “In response to the spiritual revelation regarding the holiness of God and the imperative of maintaining His divine fire within me, I engaged in a collaborative effort with my music producer. Together, we dedicated substantial time and effort to meticulously crafting the structural elements of each song. This was a live recording, where the voices of a live audience added an enriching layer to the overall experience”.

Rend Collective’s Chris Llewellyn Releases Debut Album ‘Honest’

Chris Llewellyn, the Irish singer/songwriter and founding member of the platinum-selling worship band Rend Collective, releases Honest (courtesy of Capitol CMG), his first solo project, today. With twelve Celtic-rooted songs as “the soundtrack to wrestling faith,” Llewellyn musically explores life through a raw lens of honesty and inquisitiveness. A video for “Still Believe In The Magic” also released today.

“Will God love you if you’re honest? Is He faithful when you’re faithless?” Chris Llewellyn best explains about his album. “These are the questions that I was asking when I was writing this album. It comes from a time in my life that was deeply full of struggle…when I got a medical diagnosis for my son that changed our lives as a family forever and changed my faith forever. And that’s what this is – this is the soundtrack to wrestling faith.”

He continues, “This album is me reading my diary to you out loud – no filter. It’s full of hope and doubt, hurt feelings and conflict, yet, ultimately, faith. Not a shiny airbrushed faith, but something weathered, tested, and durable. It’s my hope that by ‘oversharing’ I can offer you a permission slip to ask your own bold questions. Because my story, and I believe the story of the Bible, is that the only kind of faith worth having comes when we take the risk of being honest.”

Chris Llewellyn is inspired by many known storytellers from his homeland, a list that includes Van Morrison, Glen Hansard, Foy Vance, and U2, with his music and songwriting best described as alternative pop and Americana joined by live looping performances. He is now based in Nashville, Tennessee with his wife Gabriella, and their three children.

Jacob Shane & Company Releases Songs Of Grace & Glory With Debut Self-Titled Album

Ohio-based contemporary Christian band Jacob Shane & Company has released their debut self-titled album, a swinging roots-influenced collection stacked with songs of grace and glory.

“This album is for both believers and non-believers,” lead singer Jacob Shane offers. “For the listening believers, we hope that they can take away and draw a deeper fellowship with the Holy Spirit, being encouraged within God’s promises in Galatians 6:9-10: ‘And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.’”

But there’s something here for everyone, Shane explains: “For the non-believers, we pray that through the power of the Holy Spirit, a seed be planted in their hearts.”

Some of that encouragement has already been heard in their infectiously southern-spirit infused alt rock songs “Grace,” “Freedom” and “Send Revival.” The rest of Jacob Shane & Company captures similar musical energy while exploring a life of faith.

“You Know” is a confessional offering with a gentler approach, though still in the same musical vein. “This song is a contrite confession of my weaknesses, knowing that God already knows them, but yet He still decided to show me His love and forgiveness in spite of them,” Shane says.

Other tracks offer inspiration at the deepest level. “Roses” is a beautiful tribute to Jacob Shane’s mom, who survived a horrific car accident and a supernatural recovery. Today, she uses her reclaimed functioning to care for others. That theme ties nicely to “This is Worship,” a song that invites listeners to ponder the true expansiveness of a heart of worship.

“Jesus states, ‘God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth,’” Jacob Shane says, citing John 4:24. “Worship is not limited to a specific location or ritual, but is rather a matter of the heart and obedience to His commands.”

That obedience is part of what led to the formation of Jacob Shane & Company in the first place. The band is the culmination of years of passion for creating music that leads listeners closer to Christ. “I have been writing songs since I was about 14 years old and I feel that God has given me the talent to lead people to Him and His Kingdom,” Jacob explains. “My mission and calling is to bring as many people to Christ as I can through the gifts that He has given me.”

That mission is personal for Jacob, who has experienced the healing grace of God firsthand. His passion for music began at 13. Throughout his teenage years, he found his music getting twisted by the party culture he got drawn into. After finding his best friend dead from an overdose, Jacob was faced with the urgent reality of his need to change. God redeemed and restored Jacob’s life, and he’s committed to helping others experience the same.

To create the full 12-track collection that is Jacob Shane & Company, Shane is joined by Greg Jones (guitar, banjo, backing vocals), Will Stone (bass, backing vocals, production), Andy Couch (drums, percussion) and Josh Phipps (drums, percussion). Francesco Petrel took on mixing and mastering duties. Jacob Shane himself helmed songwriting, composition, acoustic guitar, and vocals.
