Christ-Focused, Imaginative Story-song | Posted December 23, 2017
In the song "Jesus is King," Bradley Bridges lays out his need for Jesus. The song is a bold declaration about the transformation that takes place in the hearts and lives of people who encounter the love of Christ, with references to learning the 66 books of the Bible and growing up in a Christian home.
"Jesus is King" is a prayerful and catchy song reminding listeners to live life to the fullest in praise and adoration of our King, Jesus. This song is sure to connect with all listeners who like songs filled with truth and yearning for God. If you like folk-pop style melodies and story-songs from artists like Matthew West, Josh Wilson and Jason Gray, then you should really enjoy Bradley Bridges.

Good Country Storytelling | Posted February 26, 2018
What you need to know:
Louisiana's Bradley Bridges has quietly been carving out a new genre in Christian music, merging his Southern/country roots with a deep desire to proclaim the gospel. The singer-songwriter, worship leader and former Air Force Reserve has had a lot of ups and downs over his life, but is walking strong with God and is sharing his heart with this new music.
What it sounds like:
This is country music, y'all! This songwriter, who has been making what is being called "Outlaw Christian Music" has a distinct twang, the storytelling delivery and the interplay between acoustic guitar, electric guitar and subtle honky tonk piano.
Spiritual highlights:
Bridges starts the song by talking about how although he was raised in a Christian home and did all the right things, said the right prayers, "I never got changed." He goes on to say that eventually God got ahold of him, with the chorus resounding: "I know the winding road better than the straight one... I put to death my old life, now I'm hidden in Christ." It's a great testimony song about Bridges' connection to and transformation from singing the broken-heart songs of country music to "singing sermons," as he says.
Final word:
Bradley Bridges gives us a great example of what "Christian country" could sound like, and makes us confused as to why more people aren't doing it. He shows us it can work, and work beautifully!
