Naomi grew up off the grid—one of 11 kids living in a converted school bus, traveling the country, and even spending time in a cult. She learned guitar as a child, playing at gas stations to help her family afford life on the road. Now a wife and mother, Naomi is opening up about the full truth of her past—and the moment that changed everything. After nearly dying during childbirth, she gained a profound new perspective on life. That experience sparked a deep inner shift, awakening a fierce feminine strength and emotional clarity that flows through her latest work. Her new songs, “Bricks Make Houses” and “Mama Ain’t Jesus,” are her most honest yet—music that embraces both the pain and the beauty of the road that led her here.

John Morgan’s journey to country stardom is the stuff of movies are made of. While chasing his dreams from small-town Sylva, North Carolina, a chance connection through an Uber driver led his music to Jason Aldean. Not long after, John got a life-changing call—Aldean himself offering him a record and publishing deal. Now, with his debut album Carolina Blue out, John shares deeply personal stories through his songs. One standout, “Kid Myself,” reflects on the painful choice to leave behind everything he knew—his family, family business, his hometown and hometown love, plus the comfort of small-town life—for the unknown in Nashville. Today, he’s married with three kids under three and living a life that once felt like a dream. His story is proof that taking a leap of faith can lead to something truly incredible.

Cyndi Thomson is back- after walking away from music at the height of her career-with a story only life could write. Acres of Diamonds is more than a comeback album—it’s the soundtrack of a journey filled with love, motherhood, marriage, heartbreak, healing, and hope. These songs were born in the quiet moments: rocking babies, holding hands through hard seasons, choosing faith over fear, and learning that true success isn’t about being seen—it’s about being centered. This is her voice, her story, her acres of diamonds—found not in the spotlight, but in the life she’s built just outside of it.

Zach Windahl grew up going to church, but it wasn’t until a low point in 2014—when he seriously questioned if Christianity was even for him—that his faith became real. He packed up and moved to Australia for an intensive Bible study, spending 12 hours a day, six days a week in Scripture. Within a week, everything changed. That transformation sparked a calling: help people actually understand the Bible. Zach launched The Brand Sunday, which went on to become one of the fastest-growing brands in the country. Now, with The Bible Simplified, he’s making the storyline of the Bible clear, accessible, and deeply relevant—no fluff, no pressure, just real truth for real life. His mission? To meet people where they are, simplify faith, and show that the Bible isn’t just for scholars—it’s for everyone.
