The ways of God are mysterious. I was born and grew up in Lithuania. My path to the field of worship music began some decades ago - started as a choir member in a local worship music jazz-style project, and later I played acoustic guitar in the ensemble of this group. Around the same time, my wife and I released a CD of our own songs "Let's Enjoy" (https://renatapoce.bandcamp.com/). A few years later, when asked about further plans, I then replied that I only see the meaning of creativity (if any) in the music of God's praise. I said it spontaneously and didn’t think (because we don’t know, and the Lord knows). And here, some years later, someone in me pushed me to take up the books of the Psalms again and to convey the important messages set out in them in the style of rock music. And then from somewhere, from mysteries unknown to me, one after another, in a relatively short period of time, songs began to be born, and so the word became flesh. This whole Soli Deo Gloria project took about 2 years from the birth of the idea to the release of digital media (am on the way to vinyl publishing). If very briefly, for this project (S.D.G. - Soli Deo Gloria) I brought together local musicians I know to record in the studio and invited other musicians from other countries in the world who kindly responded positively and joined the project, and with the help of the Lord, we did so. And thus, by firmly saying "Yes" to God, we can contribute to the spread of God's word to listeners around the world. I took rock-style music (with which I grew up) as the best suited for this project, so I chose it as a means of expression. I hope that we, as a global team, and I personally, have succeeded. Thank God for that. Currently, S.D.G. project develops further and joined into cooperation with UK singer & songwriter Peter Simon Bailey to produce strong, positive, and faithful messages to the listener!
What happens when God lights a fire in you? Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades. Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet? Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...
What battle are you really fighting today? Some enemies wear a smile. Kristin Ambuhl calls this out in her song “Set Free”. The song calls these enemies a “favorite shadow” who’s “throwin’ words like daggers” while “hiding behind your laughter.” This is much more than a person who is being difficult. Kristin wrote this song about the daily spiritual battles we face as believers — battles found in arrogant people, dark influences, and forces that work to pull us away from who God made us to be. Whether it’s small fights or big ones, she’s naming them all. The song doesn’t stay stuck in the shadows. Kristin declares, “I’ve been set apart, I’ve been set free, from my enemies, against dark powers, rulers, and authorities.” Part of that line echoes Ephesians 6:12: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” W...
What if nothing you chase can truly fill the emptiness? Emptiness has a way of following you around, no matter how fast you run. You chase a feeling (or things you believe will get you higher up “the ladder”), land on it for a moment, and then watch it slip through your fingers again. Joel Lane captures that feeling of restlessness in the opening lines of his song “Come Alive”: “Emptiness, chasing a feeling, trying to fill the void inside.” Sound familiar? Most of us have spent years searching for a purpose that felt just out of our reach. Joel sings about how something happened that put everything in a different perspective. “You opened my eyes, now I see the light, I’m never going back.” That’s not a small statement. That’s a complete change of direction, a different way of living, a change the kind that can only happen when God steps into the picture. The apostle Paul writes about this change of direction in Ephesians: “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the...
