Jordan Ward shares, “Growing up we would often hear a reoccurring sentiment from other men in the churches dad pastored saying, ‘Pastor, I was reflecting the other day about the type of husband and father I want to be, and then I thought of you… I told the Lord that if I was just half the husband, father, and man that you are to your family and the call of God on your life, then I would feel accomplished and fulfilled in these areas.’ As kids, it was incredible to hear men from around the world sharing the same feelings towards our dad.

ABOUT CONSUMED BY FIRE: No strangers to the road life, up-and-coming contemporary Christian music band Consumed By Fire is living out the name of their band in a brand new way. Comprised of Caleb Ward (lead vocals), Jordan Ward (harmonies/percussion), and Caleb Ward (guitar/harmonies), the three brothers from Oklahoma are living out God’s calling for their lives - to share God’s grace far and wide through music. “If it wasn’t this form of ministry, if it wasn’t music, it would just be something else," Caleb shares. "Ministry is what we were born to do.”

 

The band’s sound, heavily influenced by the music they grew up on, is partly thanks to their father’s eclectic taste. Filled with honest truths and the band’s honed musicality, “First Things First,” the band’s current radio single, is evidence of Consumed By Fire’s family bond and the unconditional love of both their earthly and heavenly fathers. With their new music as well as upcoming tour dates on the horizon, the band is ready for a new, exciting year of music. To learn more, visit ConsumedByFire.com and their social links below for the latest information.
