Luke Nielson’s new song "Something Beautiful" is more than just another track; it's a testament to his deeply personal journey of faith and perseverance. Growing up in the small town of Campbell River on Vancouver Island, Luke attended a Christian school and later pursued ministry at Pacific Life Bible College. However, the sudden loss of his older brother led him to leave college and work with people with disabilities. Despite this shift, his passion for music never waned.

Christian music artist Aaron Shust is asking for prayer for a young family who has been left orphaned after the tragic loss of their parents earlier this month. 

Shust's best friend's son, Shuki, was close with one of the boys, Matan, who is now without a mother or father.

According to Aaron, Noa and Nir Baranes, 46, were tragically killed in a rocket barrage in Golan Heights on July 9. The pair were on their way home to Kibbutz Ortal, near the southwest corner of Syria, when their car was struck during the barrage. 

Husband and wife worship leaders, Brad & Rebekah have decided to take a much-needed break. 

On Monday, the pair celebrated 18 years of marriage and the beginning of a sabbatical.

"9 years ago, we fell into a sabbatical, and it was exactly what we needed… after 9 years we’re ready for a good long break as we take some time to rest and reset our rhythm," said the duo in a post on Facebook.

Health Partners International Canada's mission is to improve access to healthcare and medicine in vulnerable communities worldwide.

President Lois Brown has been in her role for the last two years and is excited to see HPIC's work and what is to come in the future. "I first volunteered to fill in after the previous president had another opportunity that she accepted. The board then said, 'We like what you're doing, why don't you stick around?' So I'm here. I love the business model of Health Partners."

Thousands of people filled the seats at Angel Stadium Sunday to participate in the Harvest Crusade. 

There were so many people at the event, that the fire marshal forced the group to close the doors. 

"Despite this, people outside stayed and joined the worship," said Harvest Church Pastor, Greg Laurie.

 Laurie says the real focus of the crusade was proclaiming the gospel.

"When the invitation was given, 5,000 people made a profession of faith," said Laurie. "3,500 did it in person, walking down to the field. Another 1,500 prayed that prayer online."

Another member of the Camp family has entered the music industry. 

On Friday, Jeremy Camp's youngest daughter, Aerie, released her first song, 'Lucky You.'

"Overjoyed to be able to say 'lucky you' is out everywhere now!! I hope you find as much joy in it as I did when creating it. Please listen and share with everyone in the entire world, including random strangers. Add it to your playlists, roll your windows down in the car, and blast it until your speakers break!" said Aerie in a post on Instagram. 

Christian singing couple Jodi King and Chris Rademaker of Love & the Outcome recently came to Winnipeg on vacation just in time to say goodbye to their dad.

A church in Dallas says they will rebuild following a devastating fire Friday evening.

The historic First Baptist Church of Dallas, located in the heart of the city's downtown, went up in flames at around 6:30 p.m. on Friday. 

“We are grateful that no life has been lost even though we had 2,000 children and volunteers on campus for Vacation Bible School earlier in the day," said Senior Pastor, Dr. Robert Jeffress.

Jeremy Camp recently released a new version of his song 'Ready Now,' featuring Christian rap artist Lecrae.

"‘Ready Now’ is my declaration of surrender without reservation. It’s about being prepared to let go of all control, to break free from fears and chains. It’s a firm commitment to surrender everything," says Camp.

The new single was released on July 19, 2024. Camp's newest album, Deeper Waters, was released with the original version of the song on May 17.
