There are some well-known women in the Christian music industry who are shaping the culture of CCM. Check out this heartfelt music video to “Soon” by Brooke Ligertwood. 

This video begins with Brooke at a piano shaded in black and white. It is a personal and intimate moment of a woman worshiping the Lord. Clips of homemade videos of nature and car rides are shown. She and her band are seen singing to God while backstage. There are empty seats in a big auditorium. The lyrics beautifully start out:

Soon and very soon
My King is coming
Robed in righteousness and crowned with love

In a world full of chaos, diseases, death, hurt, and loss, we are reminded in this music video that we have a brighter hope in Jesus. We have a secure future. We can find peace in Him. As we view these nature clips, we see flowers blooming up out of the dirt. We remember the work that God is doing in our own lives takes time, and one day we will see in full. 

We then see a group of women in the choir sing backup harmonies. We see clips of a variety of team members together praying, laughing, and singing. It reminds us that even though this is one artist’s name, it takes a larger team to complete the vision of creating these concerts. 

This song gives us encouragement today in knowing that we have victory in Christ, the hardships we face are temporary, and the joy of knowing that Jesus is coming back soon fills up our hearts with gratitude. No one knows when He is returning, but He tells us the word soon.

"He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon. Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.” Revelation 22:20

Four supremely talented young men, Kings Return, turned in an utterly delightful and awe-inspiring Christmas-themed musical performance.

There are several Christmas-themed films and songs that are heard and watched every single year. For some families, listening to those songs or viewing those movies and television specials has basically morphed into an annual tradition. 

Some of those beloved Christmas songs come from the classic Nutcracker ballet. There are several tunes from that work that most are likely familiar with but do not realize it came from a ballet. In a clip posted on YouTube, the group Kings Return performs those memorable and classic tracks a cappella.

The nearly 4-and-a-half-minute video features four talented gentlemen displaying their God-given gift for sound. The sound the guys create is literal music to the ears. It’s so soothing, calming and pleasant. One could easily listen to these guys for hours without ever getting tired of their sound. 

Not only do the four guys sound terrific, but the video is also a sight to behold. Viewers get one shot after another of a stunningly beautiful restaurant decorated in Christmas décor and an apartment adorned with wreaths, lights and a Christmas tree. 

As viewers listen and watch the Christmas-themed clip, they’ll be immediately overwhelmed with the holiday spirit, feeling as if they are now fully ready for the Christmas season. Christmas and all the fun and excitement that typically accompany the holiday season and Christmas Day radiates from that video. 

Likely, while listening and watching Kings Return beautifully and masterfully perform the songs from The Nutcracker, a strong feeling of nostalgia will wash over you. Memories and images of Christmases long past will come rushing back. You’ll unexpectedly find yourself wanting to go back and relive and experience those special Christmas celebrations for just a few moments. 

Colossians 3:16 “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

A group of four musically gifted men, The Overtones, gave an upbeat and catchy performance, singing how they wished they could experience the joy and warmth of Christmas every single day of the year.

As everyone already knows, Christmas is, unfortunately, just one day out of the year. However, for many people, it’s likely the most anticipated day on the calendar. It’s a chance to spend time with family and friends to celebrate the birth of Christ, exchange gifts and eat too much food. What is there not to love about Dec. 25?

Given the abundance of joy and happiness present during a Christmas celebration, I’d venture to guess that most people wouldn’t mind if Christmas were extended a day or two. Who could ever be against that idea?

In a video posted on YouTube, the UK pop quartet The Overtones sings “Christmas Everyday,” a tune about experiencing Christmas all 365 days. That’s a desire most people can wholeheartedly agree with and understand. 

“Christmas Everyday” is a catchy, toe-tapping song about the best, most memorable aspects of the Christmas season. Because it is so upbeat and noticeably fast-paced, it’s a tune that is sure to get stuck in your head. You’ll probably find yourself singing it silently hours after that final listen. 

“Sidewalks covered up in snow
Lights up everywhere we go
Santa’s on his way
It’s Christmas every day”

In addition to the lyrics about Santa, Christmas trees and snow-covered surfaces, the video provides many perfect visual depictions of all things Christmas. 

The guys wear matching red suits and then don some of the ugliest Christmas sweaters you’ve ever seen while faux snow falls as the guys sing about wanting Christmas every single day. 

Later in the video, their families join the fun, sitting near an intricately decorated Christmas tree. 

Luke 2:7 “And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.”

A world-renowned musician and his talented young daughter turned in a moving and stunning performance on a popular British program, singing a beloved song from the late Leonard Cohen.

While long-running television programs like American Idol, America’s Got Talent, The Voice and Dancing with the Stars remain popular despite their lengthy run, they still want to increase viewership. So, to accomplish this task, those shows often use gimmicks like theme nights and bring other, more widely recognized performers on to sing, dance and even guest judge. 

As it turns out, The United States of America isn’t the only country in the world where citizens tune in to watch other people ballroom dance. The Brits also apparently enjoy this type of television programming. But instead of Disney or Taylor Swift-themed nights, one British program went in a decidedly different and much better direction to try and increase viewership. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Italian musician Andrea Bocelli and his daughter Virginia appeared on an episode of Strictly Come Dancing – a show very much like Dancing with the Stars. 

The father-daughter duo appeared on the British program and performed the classic and beloved 1984 hit “Hallelujah.” As expected, it’s a lovely performance featuring two talented musicians. 

The duet begins with young Virginia singing the opening lyrics. Her world-famous father sits next to her, strumming along on the guitar. 

“Now, I’ve heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth”

After singing the opening verse herself, Andrea joins his daughter by singing the tune’s simple but memorable chorus. But the highlight of their entire performance is when Andrea begins singing in Italian about a minute into the clip. 

It's such an unexpected but welcomed twist, helping to make for a dazzling performance. The sound is beautiful despite likely not many in the audience or those watching at home understanding a word of Italian. 

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

Bing Crosby and company have turned in and delivered yet another memorable and iconic performance of a beloved Christmas tune.

Christmas is a season that has no shortage of festive tunes that help listeners get in the holiday spirit. Fans of Santa Claus, Rudolph the Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman will be pleasantly surprised. There are plenty of songs about those characters. There is one tune that even mentions the green, evil and conniving central character from the Dr. Suess tale “How The Grinch Stole Christmas.”

But likely, as far as secular Christmas songs go, the most popular is “Jingle Bells.” By the end of the Christmas season, most people are likely sick and tired of that tune. Its many covers are in countless Christmas television specials, films and commercials. The song is often heard in several stores while customers peruse and complete their holiday shopping. 

However, no matter how much you may have heard “Jingle Bells,” there is still something special about hearing it sung by the legendary Bing Crosby. The late actor and singer could have opened a phonebook and belted out those names and numbers in a melodic fashion and turned it into a classic. 

In a short clip posted on YouTube, Bing is joined by several other people as they sing the often-heard but still beloved holiday track “Jingle Bells.”

“Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, hey
Jingle bells, jingle bells”

Once again, in this short clip, Bing shows why his covers of Christmas songs are the versions heard annually. His soothing, calming and distinct voice creates a pleasant and enjoyable listening experience. 

Bing Crosby Christmas covers will, without a doubt, continue to be played for many more Christmas seasons to come.

Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Milo Manheim, one of the stars of the new film “Journey to Bethlehem,” gives a stunning musical performance while singing about Joseph’s anger, hurt and confusion surrounding Mary’s immaculate conception.

The birth of Jesus is a story of joy and happiness. Hope, in the form of that precious baby boy born in a stable, had finally arrived in a lost and broken world. However, the story of Christ’s birth is also an example of how God used lowly, ordinary and humble people to fulfill His plan, His mission. Mary and Joseph did not have an elevated status in society. Instead, they were willing servants of the Lord. But that does not mean they had no questions or confusion along the way. 

A scene from “Journey to Bethlehem” depicts the massive internal struggle that Joseph was likely wrestling with and experiencing. In the clip, he literally wrestles with himself. As he sings, he argues back and forth with himself reasons to believe what Mary told him and why she was unfaithful and had made a fool of him. 

“I’m completely torn in two
Half of me believes her
While the other half needs proof”

Joseph’s confusion and doubt are completely understandable in his position. He instantly must have thought that Mary had been unfaithful. Anyone else would have immediately thought the same thing. The Bible, in the book of Matthew, even shows that these were the exact thoughts going through Joseph’s mind. God, knowing the thoughts going through Joseph’s mind, sent an angel to put his mind at rest. 

Christ’s birth is a story that contains several miracles. God’s hand was involved in that situation in a variety of ways, from beginning to end. However, it was also a story where two average, everyday people exhibited a huge amount of faith and reliance upon the Lord’s guidance and direction, especially, as the clip posted on YouTube shows, Joseph. 

Matthew 1:20 “But when he thought on these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, ‘Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.”

Beloved Italian musician Andrea Bocelli is joined by his talented young daughter, Virginia, for a remarkable duet as they sing “Winter Wonderland.”

Many holiday and Christmas-themed songs paint a beautiful picture of the winter season, creating this fictional, magical wonderland full of snow-covered trees, mountaintops and meadows. But the often-freezing temperatures and bone-chilling wind chills are anything but a wonderland. Regardless of the reality of the winter season weather conditions, those songs about a “winter wonderland” are still beloved by many.

One of those tunes that has become a favorite of many over the decades is “Winter Wonderland.” In a clip posted on YouTube, Andrea Bocelli is joined by his daughter, Virginia Bocelli, for a memorable and stunning duet. 

“Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland”

It’s clear early on, as evidenced by this tune, that Andrea’s musical talent did not stop with him. His daughter, Virginia, also has quite the voice, able to belt out the lyrics as she sings with her world-famous father. 

This duet is a fantastic example of the immense musical skill and talent that Andrea and Virginia both possess. It’s a dazzling rendition of a classic Christmas song that is sure to become an iconic version, heard for many more Christmas seasons to come.

Others, in their written comments on the YouTube video, indicated that they wholeheartedly agreed with the assessment and loved the father-daughter duet.

“Absolutely fabulous! Virginia Bocelli has inherited her father’s great voice! This (is) a marvelous way to start off the Christmas season! Thank you,” one person posted.

“Absolutely amazing voices. Great duet Andrea and Virginia. Congratulations!!! Beautiful Christmas song,” a second person added.

“This is so beautifully performed. Andrea and Victoria are excellent together. I can see this becoming a classic being played regularly for future years. Well accomplished. Thank you so very much. Kindest regards from England,” a third individual wrote.

Psalms 95:1 “O come, let us make songs to the Lord; sending up glad voices to the Rock of our salvation.”

A group of talented vocalists put their immense talents to work by creating a thoroughly enjoyable medley of familiar tunes from the beloved Nutcracker ballet.

The human voice is a unique and versatile instrument. Musicians can and do use it to create a wide range of interesting sounds and captivating tones. Not only is the human voice capable of producing a wide variety of sounds, but it is the original instrument and the only one created by God himself. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, one group of vocalists, Voctave, created a stunning medley of music from the Nutcracker ballet. But instead of playing any conventional instruments to produce the familiar sound, they only use their voices. 

To say their final product is outstanding would be a severe understatement. Performing a cappella is dangerous because no instruments are present to cover up mistakes or slip-ups. If someone were to sing a wrong note or miss one entirely, the audience would probably be able to pick up on that mistake rather easily.

But instead of mistakes, Voctave’s performance is simply amazing. They produce high-quality sounds that all are likely more than familiar with, even if they don’t realize it.

Additionally, the group’s transitions between songs are absolutely flawless. There is no lag or confusion between the vocalists. Their timing is perfect, with no one missing a beat or a note throughout the 2-minute and 46-second clip.

Several others who commented on the group’s YouTube video also expressed their love and admiration for their Christmas-themed performance.

“I have one criticism. This wasn’t long enough!! I was left wanting more! This will most certainly end up on my “must listen” to Christmas music,” one person wrote.

“Epic! Such great rhythmic precision and control,” a second individual added.

“Great as always. Such an amazing harmony,” someone else mentioned.
