Fans have new music to add to their playlists. Award-winning artist, Pat Barrett, released a new album today. 

Shelter, a 12 track album, is full of joyful songs that highlight the power of gratitude and the fleeting nature of time.

A group from a British Columbia church that had been touring historical sites in Israel when Hamas fighters began killing civilians is struggling to find a way home with the confusion of the war and a lack of support from the Canadian government.

It's an exciting Friday for fans of the award-winning sibling trio CAIN as they release their latest album.

Jesus Music, an eleven-song project, is a tribute to the Jesus music that has come before them.

“Our whole lives the music that inspired us, redirected us, and carried us, was always Jesus music," CAIN collectively shares. "To the artists, the worship leaders, and the choir directors, to the parents singing Jesus music over their kids as they put them to bed, we say thank you. Keep singing Jesus' music. It means more than you can ever know!”
