Williams is heading out on the road this week with two other massive names in Christian music, TobyMac and MercyMe, for an unforgettable concert tour! with some dates already sold out. Williams also just wrapped his headlining Revival Nights tour with special guests CAIN, Matt Maher, and Ben Fuller.

The tour, which traveled to 13-cities ove the past several weeks, was more than just a concert — it was a night of revival and renewal, where fans experienced the transforming power of music, worship, and community.

Earlier this year, Williams released his first book Rescue Story: Faith, Freedom, and Finding My Way Home in partnership with Zondervan Publishing. He then followed that up this Fall with A Little More Like Jesus, a fun and engaging picture book that invites children to hop on board for a ride to learn about the fruits of the spirit and discover how to be a little more like Jesus every day.

Internationally recognized praise and worship band Planetshakers releases Winning Team: Songs For Church (Live) globally today (Nov. 1) from Venture3Media (V3M). Available now at all major digital and streaming outlets via https://hypeddit.com/planetshakers/winningteamsongsforchurchlive, the album will also be released as a CD by New Day Distribution and as an Apple Music Exclusive Deluxe Edition that contains Music Videos for all 11 songs on the recording.

Recorded live in-the-round and led by Planetshakers band members, Winning Team: Songs For Church (Live) re-crafts tracks from this past summer’s full production Winning Team songs in a musically accessible way for smaller gatherings. Produced by Joth Hunt, the recording features lead singles “Overflow Of Worship” and “Presence.”

“The presence of God has been our pursuit since the beginning of Planetshakers Conferences,” shares Planetshakers Church Pastor Russell Evans. “It is true that He is always with us, but it is also true that when God’s presence is experienced tangibly that there are changes that take place in our lives. It’s like when Jesus walks into a village or region and people would gather around him with all sorts of needs and God’s presence and power would be there to heal, deliver and transform.”

Like previous years’ Planetshakers chapel recordings, the entire Winning Team: Songs For Church (Live) was captured on video and is available to stream now in one continuous praise and worship event at https://youtu.be/2-CLhGQqKK0.

“I hope people can sense the joy that we’re experiencing and expressing when we’re singing these songs,” says Pastor Sam Evans. “With Jesus, we’re on the winning team. When we’re singing these songs, people are grabbing ahold of what Jesus has done, and they’re celebrating and supernaturally experiencing the joy of the Lord.”

“Winning Team emphasizes the power of praise,” adds Hunt. “We really get a picture of what praise and worship is in scripture, and praise carries something different than worship. The spirit of praise is so powerful. It transcends musical style and can break an atmosphere open and into freedom.”

The full-production, 13-song Winning Team album was recorded live along with the voices of thousands attending the Planetshakers Conference 2024 in the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC). The album is Planetshakers’ response to the victory found in Jesus and includes “Wash Over Me,” a reminder to turn your eyes to Jesus, the upbeat praise song “Delight,” the joyful, high energy “Praise On It” and the worshipful, anthemic “You Have My Heart” that were released earlier this year.

UK based Music Minister, Austin Omozeje and The Blend have released a brand new single titled “Grace” (Revamped).

This feel good vibe titled “Grace” was originally written by Rev. Victor Atenaga. The song is about the Grace of God (unmerited) favor that brings blessing and joy. According to John, God’s covenant faithfulness found ultimate expression in his sending of his one-of-a-kind Son, Jesus Christ. The contrast is not that the Mosaic law was bad and Jesus is good.

Rather, both the giving of the law and the coming of Jesus Christ mark decisive events in the history of salvation. In the law, God graciously revealed his character and righteous requirements to the nation of Israel. Jesus, however, marked the final, definitive revelation of God’s grace and truth. He was superior to Abraham (John 8:53), Jacob (John 4:12), and Moses (John 5:46–47; John 9:28).

Discover God’s riches for our lives through the grace He has given us as a free gift. The greatest gift of all is forgiveness of our sins through salvation in Jesus Christ. Because of the grace God gives us, we are able to then show grace to others as we seek to follow Jesus.

Shweta Harve’s latest single, “Why So Busy?” featuring Dario Cei, arrives as an incisive commentary on modern life’s relentless pace, pushing listeners to question the virtue of perpetual busyness. With its melodic hook and introspective lyrics, this track blends wistfulness with a dose of clarity, urging a reevaluation of what we trade away in our chase for productivity.

Musically, “Why So Busy?” stands out for its emotionally resonant indie style. Harve’s vocals carry a gentle urgency that complements the track’s lyrical weight, balancing introspection with a deceptively catchy rhythm. Dario Cei’s piano composition underpins the song with a haunting calmness that mirrors the reflective nature of the lyrics.

The repetition of phrases like “I’m too busy” and “life is in a tizzy” anchors the message in a world so overstimulated it risks emotional numbness. In this context, Harve and Cei’s dynamic vocal interplay serves as a stark contrast—one singer expressing the mounting pressure to keep up, while the other voices the consequences of this frenzied lifestyle.

In the lyrics, Harve’s wordplay suggests a subtle critique of our culture’s obsession with busyness as a form of self-worth. Lines like “Not a badge of honor” and “Is it worth being sickly?” question the toll of constant hustle and serve as a reminder that busyness should not replace genuine connection and self-care.

Harve’s ability to craft these themes into memorable lyrics gives “Why So Busy?” a broad appeal, resonating with anyone who feels stretched too thin in an era where the lines between personal time and productivity are blurred.

The accompanying music video captures this disconnection poignantly. Through a simple video call setup, Harve and Cei bring to life two characters separated not by physical distance but by emotional unavailability—a modern depiction of how tech-enabled connectivity sometimes leaves us more isolated. This visual metaphor reinforces the song’s central question, drawing viewers to reflect on how technology shapes, and often diminishes, our relationships.

Harve’s own experiences lend the track a palpable authenticity. Having lost her mother in 2022, her plea to “learn to be present in any given moment” feels especially heartfelt, reminding us that time’s passing is indifferent to our plans and obligations. 

For fans of reflective indie rock and thought-provoking lyrics, “Why So Busy?” delivers a message as memorable as it is timely. It pairs beautifully with the influence of bands like U2 and The Cranberries, while offering something distinctively personal to Harve’s own journey.
