The heartbeat of this episode is a songwriter's heart of urgency spilling forth via Pastor Mark's penmanship: salvation is not framed as a distant idea, but as a 'right now' invitation. 

Various genre styles keep returning to a consistent fact: GOD calls, rescues, and refuses to condemn, pointing listeners to Jesus as the sole One who “paid the cost” and came to save. 

The project is formulated into four categories should listeners choose to skip to their favorite preview section...

Songs 1 - 6 are entitled 'Bumpin', slang for a song has an energetic, driving beat.

Songs 7 -12 are entitled: 'Smoothin', the vernacular for a song that one can vibe to or take a drive to... think head-noddin' grooves.

Songs 13-18 are entitled: 'Reflectin', focusing on our total dependency upon Jesus' ability to rescue us from ourselves.

The final group of the double-project, songs 19-24 are entitled: 'Decidin', with the reality that all approach the day that GOD will remove us from time to initiate our eternal journeys.

Our prayer with this musical episode of 'Words of Life' is simple: GOD's promises remain, the work is already paid for, and the work GOD initiated within our hearts - GOD will certainly complete. 

We pray that this preview version of Marc & Twala's 'DUAL WITNESS' - The Songwriter's Project, ministers to your heart.

-Available via worldwide digital retailers, midnight on June 30, 2026.

In lieu of eternity, sermons and musical artists are featured to extol JESUS CHRIST as the sole hope for the eternal souls of humanity.
