At the Dove Awards earlier this year, Tauren Wells joked about songs and moments that have been “CeCe’d,” that rare transformation where something good becomes timeless once CeCe Winans touches it.

Yes, A Pastor is Opening for LA Guns at the Whisky on NYE
Christian rock can sometimes feel like playing a game of Mad Libs… Switchfoot announces a tour alongside Lit and Fuel. Just a year ago it would’ve felt strange to hear Brandon Lake releases new single with Jelly Roll. However, faith-adjacent artists stepping onto stages that once felt off-limits is what makes our unique form of entertainment so special. If we are to be the light in the darkness, you have to take some big swings. And now, in a move that feels ripped straight out of a Hollywood screenplay, former Jewish street racer turned Christian pastor Aaron Schwartzbart is opening for L.A. Guns at the legendary Whisky-A-Go-Go on New Year’s…

As we celebrate the advent of the Christ… The post Motherhood and Christmas appeared first on Redeemed Reader.
