But let's open up the program with Matt LaFay with I Need You Now.
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:46.000
Emptiness between sight.
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:53.119
Clearly broken dreams in the life I tried to hide.
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:56.640
Nothing but a shell.
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:07.519
My lungs are filling up again.
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:25.439
I wanna come for I need you now.
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.879
I'm not looking for your high.
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:35.840
It's just in fix what's burning all the inside.
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:42.079
I'm reaching, I'm not taking guessing.
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.439
If I stop more, will I heal?
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:51.359
The weapon sharp below it covers like a shield.
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.760
Unfulfilling dreams.
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:05.200
I can't move them by myself.
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:12.479
Pushing, holding back, searching desperately for help.
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:19.599
Problems on the rise Trying not to compromise.
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:23.599
I'm in desperate need of grace.
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.120
I wipe the blood off of my vest.
00:02:42.159 --> 00:03:08.319
I need you to read eye to the pits, but burning on it's time I reach out not sticking in the same faster The weapon store below the cover.
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:14.159
It's got to be not stopped.
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.720

An unavoidable moment is now.
00:04:55.839 --> 00:05:00.160
Looking up, I see a king who's come down.
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:05.360
All I can do is surrender.
00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:13.279

Michael Manhurst, welcome to Back to Back Radio.
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:26.159
So glad to have you with me.
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:27.360
Thank you, thank you.
00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:28.320
I'm glad to be here with you.
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:31.919
I want to introduce you to our Back to Back family.
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:36.799
Let's talk a little bit about where you kind of your whole journey.
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:27.839
And then from there, you know, walking towards it.
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:34.319
And I kind of humming that over and over again.
00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:38.079
And then little by little pieces of it just came to me over time.
00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:43.920
And it really kind of helped me to think about where I am being in that process of sanctification and walking in that.
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:50.880
And I think a lot of people can reckon with that, and I'm just grateful for the the way about that song came because it was it was different.
00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:52.799
I've never had a song come to me like that.
00:19:53.359 --> 00:20:00.160
Sanctify, it is an act and a process that we all go through.
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:07.039
We agree that it's your blood that released us from death to victory.
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:15.359
Jesus Christ went to the cross for me, offering his life to set me free.
00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:20.079
So today we proclaim we're sanctified.
00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:24.240
You dead, idiot.
00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:30.160
There we are free.
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:37.599
The blood of Jesus Christ is the Christ.
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:39.359
What did we do?
00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:41.359
How do you off with his life?
00:20:54.400 --> 00:21:18.319
Oh we be caught out of the door is a tool for the door I just did fine Go for your blue rejects Come off for your blue Jesus
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:42.000
Okay, one other thing I like to talk about is this um incredible medley you put together called Solid Rock Medley and it's just something that I think it's it's really good, but you've you had a few uh people come in and help you with it and stuff, so tell me a bit about the background of Solid Rock Medley.
00:23:42.319 --> 00:23:43.839
Um man, Solid Rock and Medley.
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:47.759
It it really has a powerful, a really deep place in my heart.
00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:51.759
Um this is something that my my father actually asked me to do many years ago.
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:56.880
My dad always said, Hey, you should do something, you know, with Caribbean medley and stuff like that.
00:23:57.119 --> 00:24:00.559
And I was always like, okay, dad, yeah, maybe, yeah, okay, cool, cool.
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:03.920
I didn't get around to doing it, and he left it half the way.
00:24:04.240 --> 00:24:09.759
And this was kind of like a legacy kind of way that I can honor the memory of what my dad kind of wanted to infill.
00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:15.519
And it's really kind of a full circle for me to see like how far it's come down, people that are partnered with it.
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:20.319
Um even Kevin Adams, I'm sure you guys know Kevin Adams after the friends of the film.
00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:24.640
Yeah, um, him and the theme helped me do the background vocal for the thing.
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:28.000
Um producers in a city named Dylan Smith who's a phenomenal.
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:34.319
Um he kind of organized the thing within our city, and then he just took it from there and just reached out to his theme.
00:24:34.640 --> 00:25:00.160
And then Kimberly Adam, who um I'm I'm I'm always short for words when I hear her thing because I don't know how she does what she does, but he is incredible, and I'll say that, you know, honestly, this is a blessing to be able to honor my dad, and not only that, honor where I believe my upbringing, my roots are from Caribbean culture, and just you know, be a part of sharing a message that I I think is is powerful.
00:25:01.359 --> 00:27:45.279
Determine to hold out to the end Jesus On him, on him I can defend him salvation I can be a lady Determination Everybody It's your money made up, and all you press and forward I can feel everything Oh my god He didn't leave me dead And he won't leave me now It's funny your birth situation Remember how much your hand I want to just remind our listeners that you have a YouTube channel uh and it's got solid rock uh medley on it and I want the people to check out uh Michael Manherd's music on YouTube and you can just check out also he's got some incredible content up there that's really god edifying and glorifying and there's words of wisdom and stuff for you to check out and and you will really appreciate just taking the time to stop off as Michael Manher's music on YouTube.
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:50.079
And um Michael, I want to take the time to thank you so much for spending this time with us.
00:27:50.319 --> 00:27:51.359
