DAY 1: I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS
I want to take you back to the first day you met the real Jesus. The relief you felt when you realized you could be set free from that addiction, you could be made brand new, and receive a fresh start. The moment you heard the words of Jesus saying, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28-30).”
Can you remember the moment that you realized you were in need of a savior? Can you remember the awareness of the void that sat inside the core of your being and how the Holy Spirit revealed to you that the only person that could fill that void was Jesus?? Remember the passion that came out of this experience. The new fire you never knew you could have for this thing called “the Gospel”. You had to tell everybody about it! It took you over and immediately started changing you from the inside out. You truly did become “born again”. Perhaps even the closest people around began to say things like, “you’ve changed” or they asked questions like “what’s gotten into you!?”.
The closest comparison you might use to describe this experience to somebody that’s never been born again is probably the feelings and changes that happen when somebody has fallen in love. It takes over their thoughts, they walk around with that silly little smile, and they wanna spend all their time with that person! Funny enough, for everybody close to them that’s never met this other person they sorta have the tendency to either get annoyed or flat out curious if this person their friend or family has fallen in love with actually “lives up to the hype”.

Consumed By Fire is...
No strangers to the road life, up-and coming Contemporary Christian Music band, Consumed By Fire, are living out the name of their band in a brand-new way. Comprised of Caleb Ward (lead vocals), Jordan Ward (harmonies/percussion), Josh 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. Ministry is what we were born to do,” Caleb says. The band’s sound, heavily influenced by the music they grew up on, is thanks in part 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.
As their single climbs up the radio charts, the band is already receiving media attention with spotlights from KLove and Air1 Radio, praising the band for their“deft lyricism and tight harmonies.” With new music on the horizon as well as upcoming tour dates, the band is ready for a new, exciting year of music.
