“Here Is Our Hallelujah,” initially released on Village Lights’s debut album in 2021, is now reintroduced as a live version featuring their community. The single is a worshipful song growing from beautiful simplicity to a full-fledged anthem with a communal pattern of echoing the praises being sung.

The central message displayed in the song’s title truly reflects a collective “hallelujah”, meaning “praise the Lord.” “Music is always best when made in a community,” shares multiple GRAMMY-nominated worship leader Matt Maher, who mentors the group. “This requires such a level of trust. Every great artist knows this fundamental truth. Art is something best shared.

I love this group and their willingness to include so many in their journey of creativity. I am honored to help them as a producer bring this treatment of the end of the liturgical year into a collective work of song for the Church and the pilgrimage of the believer.” The song carries Village Lights’s heartbeat of unity, inclusivity, and reconciliation wrapped in worshipful devotion.

Seeing themselves as more than a band, but rather a movement for those who seek justice in our world and Church, Village Lights was birthed from the relationship of three independent artists who often found themselves leading worship together at youth conferences and discovering a shared desire to create more modern worship music for more liturgical church spaces.

Luke Wareham’s highly anticipated new live EP is out on the 23^rd of June. The EP includes live versions of ‘Shadows, Honour You Lord, Refuge and Therefore I Know’. Luke says ‘making the new live EP has been great fun, with so many amazing people involved and I cannot wait for everyone to hear the songs.

I have been writing these songs over the past year (they have been previously released as studio recordings) and some really kind people have supported me in this new live recording’.

When speaking about the new live EP, Luke says, ‘Our hope in recording these songs is that they will help people fix their eyes on Jesus. The evening of worship where we recorded these songs was a special time when freedom was released in the room as we gazed at Jesus.

As we recorded the songs from the beginning we had 2 Corinthians 4:18 in mind and it has really spoken to me this year. It says ‘So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.

One of Luke’s favorite songs on the new release is ‘Therefore I Know’ which he wrote with Sarah Téibo and Rachel Walker Mason. The song is an outpouring of their hearts for each of us to know the hope we have in Jesus. Luke says ‘it was so great to write with Sarah and Rachel they are both great songwriters and encouragers. As we wrote this song we hoped that through it people will grow closer to God and have confidence in their identity in Him.

‘Luke Wareham – Live EP’ is available to stream and download on all music platforms and the brand new official music videos from the night are up on YouTube. The chords to the song are available to download via SongSelect.

5x GRAMMY-winner Naomi Raine and Women’s Health discussed the relationship between the New York native’s spiritual and physical health and her journey to finding a workout regimen that allowed her to strengthen both.

Naomi discusses the following in the feature, which is on newsstands on June 27th:

• Feeling like physical and spiritual health were contradictory, and how she changed her mindset
• Completing her daily worship and meditation with a 30-minute morning walk
• The importance of finding a healthy sleep schedule
• The best piece of advice she’s ever received and how it helps her remain true to herself

Naomi has won GRAMMY, BET, NAACP, Billboard, Dove Awards, and more, and she was called “the next generation of the gospel” by 19x GRAMMY-winner Kirk Franklin. She recently released her debut live album ‘Cover The Earth (6.2), and on Sunday (6.25), she’ll head to Los Angeles to wrap up the first-of-its-kind, all-female It’s Time Tour with Tasha Cobbs Leonard, Tamela Mann, Natalie Grant, and Katie Torwalt.

Paris-based Nigerian singer/songwriter Esua has returned after the success of her singles ‘Hidden’, ‘Potter’, and ‘Love Letter’ with four soul-stirring songs that beautifully encapsulate the vulnerable journey experienced by believers.

‘The Thing That Frees Us’ boldly embraces the alternative gospel genre and each song delves deep into the intricacies of faith, offering listeners an experience that resonates with their own spiritual journeys. Esua believes that vulnerability, transparency, and honesty are important elements of freedom and through soulful harmonies and evocative instrumentation, the EP unravels the trials and triumphs encountered along the path of faith, reassuring believers that their vulnerability is not a weakness but a source of strength.

Listeners can expect an emotional rollercoaster as the EP navigates themes of doubt, redemption, surrender, and ultimate liberation. ‘The Thing That Frees Us’ serves as a sonic pilgrimage for anyone seeking solace, guidance, or simply a moment of introspection within the realm of faith.

This EP release marks a significant milestone for Esua and solidifies her position as a force to be reckoned with in the alternative gospel genre.

All the songs on ‘The Thing That Frees Us’ are written by Obongwami Esther Ubong-Abasi, produced by Emmanuel Adeniyi, and are available on your preferred streaming platform from the 26th of May, 2023.

Today, Bethel Music Collective artist Zahriya Zachary has released the studio version of “Back To Life.” The release comes after an incredible response while leading the song live including a moving moment of testimony in her hometown of Houston during the Come Up Here Worship Nights tour. “Back To Life” serves as a reminder that what once was dead is made new and brought back through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Listen to “Back To Life” HERE.

“”Back to Life” is based on Galatians 2:20, the good news of the gospel and the power of how Jesus has changed us from the inside out” shares Zahriya. “Because of this truth we are one with Christ and a new creation. This song has been an encouragement and a reminder for me that Jesus can bring anyone and anything back to life because of the finished work of the cross. He’s done it in my life, and I believe He will do it again for others.”

Zahriya Zachary – Back To Life

Born and raised in Spring, Texas, Zahriya Zachary didn’t come from a musical family, but her love of music began at the early age of six while learning to play the piano. She began leading worship when she was a freshman in college after the Lord clearly spoke to her and told her that it was time. Throughout her time in college, she began volunteering on her church’s worship team while the Lord was teaching her more about what it means to have a worshiper’s heart.

Zahriya made her Bethel Music debut on Homecoming (2021) where she led “Back To Life” and joined Brian Johnson in leading “Hymn Of Heaven”. Her debut solo single, “Simple Ways”, was released in the summer of 2022 and reflects on the simple joys that often go overlooked in the chaos of day-to-day life. Most recently, she appears on Come Up Here (2023) leading “Surrounded By Holy”. Zahriya believes that worship is the place where we belong and her heart is that people will be led to Jesus through her.
