Redeem this wreckage
Restore my peace
I’m not asking, I’m begging
Lord, come through for me”

Megan Woods Makes History!

Hi!

Today on the show it was Artist News Day. I shared some artist news about Megan Woods and her new song The Truth. Also, we had our song poetry where one person has a chance to win a $5 gift card to Watts Restaurant!

Here is my article:

New Christian music artist Megan Woods’ debut single, “The Truth,” is the largest debut single launch in two and a half years. As of the date the single was added, it has been played by 39 different radio stations nationwide. This song is relevant and timely according to radio programmers across the country.

The single has captured significant social media attention, accumulating over 23 million views across various platforms. With 250,000+ new followers, “The Truth” continues to connect with listeners as a source of healing and personal declaration.

The song, “The Truth” is a deeply personal proclamation that tells Megan Woods’ life story that is connecting with fans and followers across the world.

Megan says that “I wanted to write a song that’s a reminder for people every day of who they are in Jesus. We don’t belong to the lies; we belong to God–that’s the truth. When the lies are closing in, this song can remind them of the truth. I hope there’s someone out there that understands they are their Father’s child.”

Here is the lyric video for the song The Truth:

I don’t want to fear the storm
Just because I hear it roar
I don’t want to fear the storm
I don’t want to fear the storm.

…Peace Be Still by Hope Darst

Congratulations to Bonnie of Mount Vernon for guessing the correct answer! She wins a $5 gift card to Watts Restaurant.

Thanks for listening!
