Watching young kids singing brings a smile to anyone’s face. In this video, adorable children give a sweet rendition of ‘This Little Light of Mine.’

At the beginning of this video, we see three adorable young boys under the age of 5, sitting in their family’s living room. They begin to sing, “This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.” The older adorably sings, “This widdle light of mine.” He is focused, singing with confidence, and enjoying the performance. The middle child is enjoying using his finger to represent the light and spinning it around while he sings with a smile. The baby boy is seated between the older brothers, and he starts to get completely tickled when he begins to shine his little light with his finger. He giggles and smiles so big, and it is precious.

The boys go into the second verse, “Hide it under a bushel, no! I’m gonna let it shine.” The oldest sings clearly, the middle does the motions perfectly, and the little one is there to giggle and be the entertainment again. A highlight moment is when the trio sings about not letting Satan blow it out. Instead of singing blow, they actually blow with their lips. The younger two practice with their little finger lights being blown out. 

They continue to the final verse to let their lights shine until Jesus comes back. The oldest is still leading strong, and the younger two are still having a good time. Watching these boys is a complete delight. They are very into the song and the motions. The message that they are singing is very profound. As we reflect on letting our lights shine, may these little boys remind us of the true joy that is found in the Light of the World, Jesus.  

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16

Every day there are a thousand voices tempting us to think and act in ways that are destructive to us. They come in attractive packages in things like commercials, songs, TV shows and other entertainment. They also come from our own compulsions toward evil. But Jesus showed us another way. We don't have to listen to those voices. It's not easy, but we can follow Him - and His way leads only to life.

For of Him and Through Him

Popular Christian musician Anne Wilson has released the official heartfelt lyric video for her new song “My Father’s Daughter.”

Fathers are extraordinary men that the good Lord has placed in our lives. They are gentle, kind, caring individuals who are also supportive and quick to share knowledge and words of wisdom. Fathers offer protection, guidance, direction and even correction when needed.

Everyone needs someone like that to show them how to handle and navigate life. Even if they aren’t a biological father, men who become father-type figures are invaluable to children. Through their words and actions, those men are shaping the next generation.

In the official lyric video for Anne’s song “My Father’s Daughter,” Anne is spotted in the studio singing and recording the beautiful song. But also included is sweet, heartfelt video footage of little girls interacting with their fathers. Some of the material even appears to be parts of home videos, likely of Anne as a child with her dad.

But as sweet and touching as the images are in the video, the song’s lyrics are just as likely to cause you to shed a tear or two. The song is essentially about how much Anne looks up to and adores her father. She adds that she will always be her father's daughter no matter where she goes or what she does.

The song’s following lines also mention how Anne knows that she can always rely upon her father for love and support no matter what she is going through or experiencing.

“When I just can’t make sense of anything, this woman I’m becoming

The world might put some labels on her, but no matter where I go

I’ll always be

My father’s daughter”

That’s exactly what every child wants, needs and deserves. They need a father figure in their lives to love and support them in any situation, to be someone they can count on when life gets messy and confusing.

Ephesians 6:4 “And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.”

Written by Darlene Zschech and performed by Dan Adler in this live unplugged version from his CD 'Songs for the Battle' available on iTunes, CD Baby and www.danandsandyadler.com

The Bible tells us that if we resist the devil, he will flee from us and if we draw near to God, He will draw near to us. If we are followers of Jesus, we have to do this work of resisting and drawing near if we are going to become more like Jesus. God's mercies to us are new every morning, so begin again today. This song features Native American flute by Sandy Adler and acoustic and electric guitar by Dan Adler.

Legendary gospel singer CeCe Winans turned in a powerful and moving performance of her song, “That’s My King,” on The Kelly Clarkson Show.

Christians are no better than anyone else in society. We are still human beings and sinners. The only difference between us, as Christians, and everyone else is that we have realized that we are sinners and have asked the Lord for forgiveness. He has forgiven our sins and transgressions because of His incredible, perfect, never-ending love, mercy and grace.

God has done a fantastic, life-changing thing for us, something we could have never earned. But, as the Bible states, Christians are not to keep this quiet and to ourselves. Instead, we are to go about, into all the nations, sharing what Christ has done for us and making disciples for Him.

In a clip posted on YouTube, CeCe performs “That’s My King.” It’s a song about the great and extraordinary things the Lord has done in her life. He has dramatically changed her life, and she shares it with everyone. Her excitement about the Lord and His message of love, hope and mercy are too important to keep contained.

The entire song is an upbeat and joyful tune about Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world.

“That’s my King

We declare the glory

Give Him all the honor

Altogether worry”

CeCe, as she always does, gives a show-stopping performance. It’s one that you’ll want to watch and listen to repeatedly.

However, before her stunning performance, CeCe sat down with Kelly and discussed several topics, including her grandson’s musical ability, performing live and how she is incredibly blessed to be able to share with others what God has done for her.

“You can’t; it’s a gift and it's a blessing,” CeCe said. “And to be able to use what God has given you and to share good news and to bring life because music is so powerful.”

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.”

Being a follower of Jesus requires us to surrender our all to Him. It's easy to claim to follow Jesus but really live for ourselves. But because He gave His all for us, and because all that we have and are comes from us, we too must surrender it back to Him. And in that surrendering is not defeat but victory and real fulfillment. It's an ideal that we often fail, but it must remain our goal. Written and Performed by Dan Adler from the CD 'Songs for the Battle' available at www.danandsandyadler.com, CD Baby and iTunes.

Listen to We The Kingdom's "Won't He Do It."

Massively talented Christian musician TobyMac has released the official lyric video for his new song “Nothin’ Sweeter.”

We will all experience our fair share of ups and downs. Some moments will cause us extreme grief, pain and sorrow, while others will have us cheering and jumping for joy. We can be on top of the world one minute, shouting from the mountaintops, and the very next minute, we can be in one of life’s darkest valleys.

Life is often an unpredictable experience. Situations can change without a moment’s notice. We cannot count on and rely upon much in this world. However, no matter what happens or what situations we encounter or endure, God and His endearing grace and perfect love are things we can count on forever.

In his new song, “Nothin’Sweeter,” TobyMac sings about how God and His love remain the same despite everything he’s been through and all the changes he’s witnessed. They are constant, something he can count on every single time.

The song’s chorus perfectly articulates life’s ups and downs, the highs and the lows, but God’s love never changes but always remains the same.

“I’ve been uptown, I’ve been downtown

In the spotlight, I’ve been broke down

I’ve seen so much, might not know much

But there ain’t nothin’ sweeter than His love”

TobyMac also understands that God has been more than good to him throughout his life. He’s received more love, grace and kindness from God than he has ever deserved. TobyMac sings that there is nothing sweeter than God's love.

While TobyMac may be the one singing, those lyrics and the song’s message can be applied to all our lives. None of us has done or will do anything deserving of God’s love, grace and forgiveness. It’s impossible to do anything that would be worthy of His love.

Romans 5:8 “But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.”

Popular and incredibly talented Christian musician Danny Gokey released the official music video for his latest song, “wannabe.” The catchy and energetic song celebrates God’s amazing love and faithfulness.

Humans are, by nature, imperfect and fallen beings. We are all sinners who have willingly turned away from God and desperately need His forgiveness, mercy and grace. No one would have a chance without God's love and forgiveness.

But because He does love us that much, He sent his one and only Son, who willingly endured a painful, agonizing and humiliating death on our behalf. He made a way so that we could be forgiven and experience everlasting life with Him. That’s the work and sacrifice of a powerful, merciful and loving God.

In his latest song, former American Idol contestant Danny Gokey sings about God’s love, goodness, mercy and faithfulness. It’s an uplifting and upbeat song that reminds us of the loving God that we serve. The catchy, poppy melody and beautiful lyrics will be stuck in your head.

The tune’s opening verse perfectly captures God’s endless love and faithfulness.

“You got that kinda love that don’t go unnoticed

You got arms open wide as an ocean

You’re always giving endless second chances

You’re faithful, and You never leave me stranded.”

Praise God for His love, mercy and grace! What would we do, and where would we be without it? Without question, we would be much worse off, living in our sin and shame with no hope in sight.

As Danny’s song mentions, God is the perfect example of love, mercy and grace. We should all strive to be more like Him, but being human, we will inevitably fail. But He is a god of endless second chances, willing to forgive those who confess their sins and turn from their ways.

Matthew 5:16 “Even so let your light be shining before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.”

Listen to Pat Barrett's "Daily Bread"

Listen to this choir’s soul-stirring ‘Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)’ rendition, and let your hearts be uplifted!

‘Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost, but now I'm found,

Was blind, but now I see.’

What a wonderful performance! At the beginning of the song, a soloist starts off with the first verse, and the choir slowly joins in. All of their voices sound heavenly, and they blend together so beautifully. The choir then picks up the energy a bit in the second verse as the voices get louder and more enthusiastic, and another soloist comes in with the chorus of the song.

The name of this talented choir is Lux Choral Society, and this performance of ‘Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)’ was recorded during their 2023 Pacific Northwest tour. Their name, Lux, comes from the Latin word for light, and the choir seeks to create light and experiences that connect people to God through sacred music. They share that they want to use music’s power to lift the weary, console the disconsolate, empower the humble, and touch the hearts of the wounded.

The song ‘Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)’ is the updated version of the classic hymn, where Chris Tomlin and Louie Giglio wrote a powerful chorus, which the original hymn never had. Even though ‘Amazing Grace’ is a very old hymn, the message of God’s grace and the power of it is constantly new and needed. This version of the song keeps the words and message of an all-time classic hymn, while adding a little content as a reminder that if we are saved by the grace of God, we truly have “been set free.”

We hope that you enjoyed this rendition of ‘Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)’ today!
