Remembering Carman on His 70th Birthday
WHO’S IN THE HOUSE? If you know how to answer that question, you were there. You were part of the millions who experienced the wonderful, ridiculous, thrilling, and sometimes straight-up nightmare-fuel spectacle that was Carman. If you don’t know about Carman, go lose a few hours on YouTube. You will not come back the same. In 2021, the Christian music world lost one of its true originals just weeks after his 65th birthday. Carman was one of the rare artists in any genre who felt impossible to replace because he was never trying to sound like anyone else. Today is not about mourning him. It’s about celebrating what would have been…

BRAG has been a recurring…

Nelson at the Helm Releases New Single
Nelson at the Helm has released their new single, “Belief.” The indie pop/alternative track finds the husband-and-wife duo leaning fully into honest faith, echoing the prayer of Mark 924–“I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” With tender verses and a raw, soaring chorus, “Belief” captures the tension between certainty and doubt, offering hope in the quiet promise that night always gives way to dawn. Written during a season of longing for clarity, “Belief” reflects a God who welcomes honesty rather than perfection. The song’s imagery and lyrics wrestle openly with questions many believers carry—how to trust when the harvest hasn’t come, how to believe when faith feels fragile–while anchoring…
