Zane & Donna King Find Joy In The Journey With ‘Everything Good’

Everything Good, the highly anticipated new recording from Dove and Singing News Fan Award-nominated husband/wife duo Zane & Donna King, bows May 31 from StowTown Records. Carrying overarching themes of joy and peace, the album is a testimony to God’s faithfulness in the couple’s lives following a difficult season of walking with two of their children through addiction and recovery.

Produced by Zane & Donna King, Everything Good features 12 inspirational country, worship and roots-gospel influenced tracks. Collaborating with a range of genre-leading songwriters, Donna co-penned every selection on the album, while seven songs were co-written by Zane.

A centerpiece of Everything Good, “From the Basement to the Altar” is a poignant tribute to those who persevere in the face of addiction. Written by Zane & Donna King and Sue C. Smith, the touching ballad highlights the unique solidarity fostered in recovery groups as members faithfully gather to offer lifelines of hope and encouragement to each other.

“When two of our six children battled addiction, we found ourselves battling alongside them,” reflects Zane King. “We started attending an Al-Anon meeting that was literally in the basement of a church. We experienced the closeness of God’s power and peace in that basement, making it as much of a church altar as the ones where people find themselves on Sunday mornings.

There’s something sacred about seeking God from the very lowest point and watching Him rescue our children from that pit and into His presence.”

“My prayer for this song is that listeners feel closer to God, no matter how big the battle in front of them looks,” he adds. “We pray they’ll know that God can take us all from the basement to the altar, seeing what His grace can truly do.”

The project’s joyful new single, “Front Porch Sittin’,” is now available The song’s laid-back, gentle lilt offers the assurance of carefree days ahead when we place our trust in Him.

“I was in our writing room last summer with my dear friends Val Dacus and Sue C. Smith, and Val brought this happy idea,” shares Donna King of the track. “We pray listening to this song takes everybody to that place where they can feel the peace and presence of our Savior.

Whether they are stuck in traffic or anywhere they are overwhelmed with all that life is throwing at them, we hope ‘Front Porch Sittin’’ offers that sweet moment to breathe and take in the goodness of God in their lives.”

“It’s not that life is perfect, but God is,” Donna says of the album’s main theme. “He is faithful. He is constant. He is SO good. And we have to share that. We have to write, sing, and play songs that let people know there is Hope, because our God is kind and gracious and loves us all so unconditionally. NOTHING—no battle, no hardship, no tough season—can separate us from the love of God.

What we’ve found in the hard times is that God is still God, and we can still find joy and hold it in our hearts, whether everything is going well or not.”

[Music] While Men Slept – John Olumayowa

Pastor John Olumayowa has officially released the powerful ministrations from WATO (Word and Tongues Only) Ibadan Experience 2023, “While Men Slept” featuring Pastor AnjolaJesu OMOTOSO, Wande Zion, Soji Adeleke, Pastor Charles Alade, JPraise Oluwatobi, Charity Essien and WATO Choir.

The videos and Audio of “While Men Slept” are now available online for free download. There is a sleeping portion of the Church of Christ. This sleeping portion does not walk in revelation, rather they walk in the traditions of their Fathers, thus they are disobedient to the Will of God. As this portion of the Church sleeps, the enemy of mankind is busy sowing tares of perilous times.

Matthew 13:25; But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

When the destiny of Israel was at stake in the hand of Haman, it was perilous time for them. It took an Esther and a Mordecai to bring deliverance and thus revealed more of God.

Word and Tongues Only (WATO) is the outreach part of Tephillah Charismatic Ministries International which focuses on reaching out to people through music and God’s Word with the main purpose of bringing people into a genuine encounter with the Cross.

WATO is an abbreviation of Word and Tongues Only. It stands for a position where the reality of God’s Word enters into a deep form of romance with the Holy Spirit, thereby bringing a unique collision between man and God. WATO is the combination of the written Word and the spoken Word expressed through divers of tongues.

It is also a place where God’s Word and the Holy Spirit drag men to the cross in an uncommon encounter that produces new birth in the life converts. It is also a place of the recovery of lost relationship with God.

Featuring eight tracks penned or co-penned by Greer and produced by Kyle Buchanan (Lynda Randle, Cindy Morgan), Songs From The Dark elevates themes of peace and hope birthed from seasons of pain and doubt. Hallmarked by organic, uncluttered arrangements, album opener “Rescue Me,” a cry for liberty from selfish ambition, sets the project’s overarching tone: “When the tide of pride sweeps me into the deep dark sea/Will You set Your sails of love and come and rescue me?

Additional highlights of Songs From The Dark include “Mercy,” a petition for healing and grace featuring GRAMMY-nominated, Dove Award-winning singer/songwriter Cindy Morgan; and the gentle, assuring lilt of “For Love,” showcasing evocative harmonies from lauded singer/songwriter Skye Peterson.

“It has been a long season since I last released a record that was marked by just me and the piano keys underneath my fingertips or my guitar tucked up against my chest with an arch of a melody and some lines I had hidden away,” Greer shares. “I waited for the season where I would find space to offer up whatever I had to music—and eventually to others. I finally found it, and those songs became Songs From The Dark.”
