Jimi Cravity: "Surrender" came to me as an honest song. The inspiration behind it was the need to surrender to Christ. I was very anxious about my life, career, and worrying too much. So this song was really my prayer to God to say, "I surrender to You, not to worry, frustration, or anxiety. The bridge of the song was really taken out of Psalms 24:

["Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD? And who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood And has not sworn deceitfully. Lift up your heads, O gates, And be lifted up, O ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in! Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, The LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O gates, And lift them up, O ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in!" Psalms 24:3-4, 7-9 NASB]

Jimi: I've been a part of the 268 generation for awhile and I've always felt truly connected to the vision of Passion. I attended several conferences and when I heard the news of the church plant, I felt compelled to join in the work of holding the door for Christ.

Jimi: I am putting the finishing touches on my debut album, entitled "Heaven," and I plan to promote it through touring stateside and abroad.

Jimi: Coldplay, Labrinth, Hillsong, Otis Redding, and FUN....to name a few.

Jimi: With my music I hope to accomplish glory. Not for myself, but for God. I see God as a giver and music as his gift to me; I hope that it is embraced as a gift as well. I'm hoping to accomplish social change in society and really use my music to advance some issues that I want to change in society.

Jimi: Lately, God has been teaching me humility. God loves the humble. He gives grace to the humble. This passage has been speaking to me lately:

"Blessed is the one whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal. From six calamities he will rescue you; in seven no harm will touch you. In famine he will deliver you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword. You will be protected from the lash of the tongue, and need not fear when destruction comes. You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the wild animals. For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you. You will know that your tent is secure; you will take stock of your property and find nothing missing. You will know that your children will be many, and your descendants like the grass of the earth. You will come to the grave in full vigor, like sheaves gathered in season."
