Our desire as a band is to bear Light in this dark and dying world so that people may be saved and have new life in Jesus Christ. We also want to truly worship Him intimately in Spirit and Truth, in hopes that others enter into His presence as well. It’s all about praising Him and worshipping His name! As we strive to achieve excellence with the gifts God has given us, we hope that our music and our message are truly bearing Light!
"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.†– Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV) How did we get the name, bearing Light? History on the name
What's being said about us?
"We have had the blessing of bearing Light's Worship and can
honestly say that they portray the heart of God. They are current, humble
and have led our students to a deeper level with God. Christa not only
sings lead, but draws others to be consumed through the power of the Holy
Spirit. I would recommend them to anyone searching for a band or worship
team for any venue, from a worship service to a concert."
- Edward Wilkerson, Youth Pastor
CrossRoads Baptist Church
"When bearing Light led our church in worship, their heart for worship and
leading people to the throne of God saturated every part of their ministry. Christa has a beautiful voice and the band has a selfless attitude of service and ministry which is a refreshing spirit to partner with. I would highly recommend bearing Light!"
- Rev. Paul Miller, Student and Administration Pastor
Shiloh Baptist Church
"When I invited bearing Light to come and play for my youth group, I knew I was in for a treat. Not only did they help usher in the Holy Spirit, their prayer and speaking was most obviously spirit filled. I needed someone to help bring my kids back around facing Jesus, needing the Lord. bearing Light did just that."
