LIFE Collective Releases New EP: Father & Son

December 6

The LIFE Collective, 51ÊÓƵ’s worship ministry based out of our Worship Arts and Media Program, has released its third studio EP entitled Father & Son. ​​

Dr. Steven Felix-Jager, Worship Arts and Media Chair and instrumentalist, writer, and producer on this most recent release, says “Father & Son is our latest EP (extended play) that has 6 tracks all written and produced by WAM students and faculty. Earlier this year we released a full-length album titled “2.16-18” which focused on the universal outpour of the Holy Spirit as recounted in Acts 2. “Father & Son” acts as a counterpart to “2.16-18” and focuses on the first and second persons of the Trinity. Each song promotes theological themes of creation, provision, and redemption. Taken together we get a robust Pentecostal doxology that’s trinitarian and celebrates God’s abundant loveâ€
