{Review} Alpha / Omega by Kutless

I can remember listening to Kutless well over ten years ago which makes sense since they've been around since 2001. One of the first songs I remember hearing was called Strong Tower.

You are my strong tower

A shelter over me

Beautiful and mighty

Everlasting King

You are my strong tower

Fortress when I'm weak

Your name is true and holy

And your face is all I see

At the beginning of August for the last twenty plus years there has been a multi-day Christian musical festival in a neighboring state. The last year it was four days was in 2012 and that was the year I was able to see Kutless live. Their show did not disappoint although I remember the sound was off for those of us in the press pit watching.

 

Lead Sing Jon Micah Sumrall

Their newest album Alpha / Omega just released last Friday. It contains ten songs, some brand new, some covers, and they have even included a remix of Strong Tower. As always they stay true to their roots of a little bit of rock and a whole lot of Jesus. 

I truly appreciate what Jon Micah had to say about what keeps them motivated to continue making music. 

"We really believe that music can make a difference in people's lives," 

shares Jon Micah Sumrall. "Music is an incredibly powerful tool that can

break down walls and allows us to communicate a message of hope to people 

who may not listen otherwise. We are still recording and performing

because we really do believe it makes a difference. We hear stories all the time

from people who share with us how a concert or a song has radically impacted

their life, and it's these types of testimonies that keep us going year after year."

I love music and I believe fully in what Jon Micah says about its ability to impact lives around us. It truly is a gift from God. 

In 2012 Kutless formed EOTA Ministries (End Of The Age) in order to expand the ability to bring Christ to those around the globe. EOTA is a non-profit organization that helps Kutless hold large, free outreach events and concerts. They have been able to do to in places like the Ukraine and Belarus where thousands have turned their life to Christ as a result. 

Kutless is more than just a band singing music to honor the Lord. They are walking the walk through EOTA Ministries.
