📿🎺✨ NEW SONG (early drop): “Shrove It Like You Mean It”

Shrove Tuesday is TOMORROW—so I’m releasing this one a day early so it has time to circulate before the pancakes hit the griddle.

Mardi Gras isn’t “one last day to sin.” It’s Shrove Tuesday: a day to get shriven (hello, Confession), clear out the pantry (goodbye butter/eggs/sugar), and start Lent with a clean slate and a grateful heart.

We’re a people of feasting AND fasting.
We feast because God is good.
We fast because we refuse to let good things become our god.

So yes—flip the pancakes, share the king cake, laugh, dance, celebrate…
…but keep it ordered: gratitude indulgence, joy chaos, freedom “I couldn’t help myself.”

🎶 “Shrove It Like You Mean It” is a pre-Lent two-step reminder:
Clean the pantry. Clean the heart. Start strong tomorrow.

📜✨ NEW SONG — “Built Like the Tower of David (But Cute)”

Dropping just in time for Valentine’s Day… and dedicated first and foremost to my own wife ❤️

This one’s a playful love song straight out of Scripture — a mashup of the Proverbs 31 woman and the wonderfully unhinged poetry of the Song of Songs.
You know: towers, goats, fortified cities, shorn ewes, and covenant-level affection.
Ancient Israelite love poetry didn’t say “you’re cute.”
It said: your neck is a fortified tower and I feel safe approaching you.

Honestly? Goals.
🎶 “Built Like the Tower of David (But Cute)” is for husbands, fiancés, and anyone who’s ever read the Bible and thought,
“…this is romantic, but also a little aggressive.”

Gentle suggestion to the gentlemen out there:
📩 Send this to your wife.
She’s built like a fortress for a reason.

Tomorrow I’m dropping a *biblical* love song for Valentine’s weekend. ❤️😂

It’s genuinely heartfelt…
and also I had to deal with Song of Songs saying things like:

“I love you from the bottom of my bowels…”
Which, in modern English, sounds like: “Babe… I ate some gas station sushi...”

So yes—this track is both:
✅ sweet
✅ ridiculous
Because Scripture can be both.

Full song drops Friday.
