Hey everyone, Over the last several years we've heard from people from literally all over the globe about the need for community in christian/gospel music. It seems that everyone is so passionate about it..how people of all cultures, styles and genre's blend to reach the masses with the message of hope in Jesus.. With that said, it's seems only temporal to me because most seem interested until it costs them something..which is TIME and the sharing of information etc.
Why are we so disconnected and disinterested in helping out those who may or may not help us go the next level of fame, fortune etc? It seems that many of us are so busy in wanting to be successful at our craft that we aren't successful in building real and lasting relationships that can only be birthed out of giving something that could benefit you away..I have accomplished more, done more mainly(in my belief) not because i was the most talented human being, but because I value, cherish and nurture my relationships and those relationships blessed me when i had no influence to help myself.. We have lost something that is so valuable that we must regain it if we are going to be what God has called us to be. I'm not your competitor or rival, we are co laborers in a plan and mission much bigger than ourselves. Yeah,we all want a pat on the back, we all want our ART to be recognized but why should it be at the expense of another..how can that be Christ like? We are building an image of something that doesn't resemble the One we say it's for..I guess what i am saying is: What are we giving away to benefit someone else? Who are we mentoring to take the cause of Christ after us?
Let's all remember: The only thing that will remain are those things that are truly done for Christ..
If you're an artist, do something to help another fellow artist
If you're a writer, do something to help another writers song get heard
If you're a producer, do something to expose another producers work
We always reap what we continue to give away! ant
