Peace

Dennis, We have the song up on CCLI. Try checking again, the CCLI number is #5791866. I'll send you a song chart for it as well Dennis, so check your inbox. It'll be coming soon! God bless
Really nice song.....the lyrics are beautiful....
Bizzy,
I have found that I am refreshed in different ways at different times - certainly a song like "Breathe" (slow, reflective, "soaking" can be very refreshing to me, but I know of others who are not refreshed by those slow, reflective songs, As…
Once CCLI gets your song up on it's songselect website, will it include a chart? I just checked and the song isn't up, yet. I could emvision using this at our church - thanks for sharing.
I like this song because it is based on scripture. The song is very well produced as well and has a catchy tune.
Sounds great.
It is another great song, Kurtis. I have to say though it is pure praise in my opinion and very active in nature. To me, refreshing times with the Lord are quiet times of soaking and resting and this song doesn't imply that at all. So God of Refresh…

Thanks LIVING
So, I just posted a new song "Thank You",at kurtisparks.com, and it comes at a good time of the year, as we are approaching one of my favorite holidays, Thanksgiving!
It's so easy for us to just look past all the things that most people in 3rd world countries will never get to experience in life. As I'm typing on the computer, I'm reminded that there are millions of homeless kids and orphans with no homes, people who will be lucky just to eat some food today, much less learn what "the internet"… Continue

Back in the Studio!
Just started working on my full length worship album, with Stellar award winnging, Grammy nominated producer Daniel Weatherspoon! This record is really going to feature heartfelt, spirit-led worship, through songs that I've written in the past year and a half. I'm excited for what the next few months have in store in the studio, and my prayer is that our King is glorified and people are brought into God's presence through this album. I'll keep you posted on the progress!!

Following God's heart
So, I've been on the road the past 3 years with my band, The Season, and since last October, I've really felt this pull on my heart to do a worship project outside the band. It's been a crazy transition for me, but God has definitely sent confirmation after confirmation that this is the right move to make. Several labels have approached me, and without any stress I've had my entire summer booked with events to be able to do music full time. God is good! I've known that worship was always a huge… Continue

This past spring and summer has been sobering! The Lord took my baby brother of 28 and co- worship leader home. I am just trying to get back in the swing of things without him and be of a comfort to my mother. What the experience has only done to us has changed us. We have a deeper desire for the 20-30 year olds and a fresher burning for the Fire to hit us here! My song has not died, it has gotten a little different, but it surely has NOT died! Since his death it has done nothing but rain here in the northeast. I believe it is prophetic!!! We are in route for an awakening. How about you? What is new for you in TN? What has God been doing there??? I'm all ears!!!! =0)

- I gave your EP to one of my pastors last night after worship and I am meeting with him this week so I will speak with him about maybe you coming to lead us in worship. Can you give me some details about booking you? thanks
