On Gospel Heritage, she says, āThe most exciting thing for me, about being part of theĀ Gospel Heritage, is having a legacy that is about impacting the lives of people all over the world, by bringing to them, the Gospel in music, which in turn gives them hope, healing,Ā joy, and encouragement. āĀ

Tim Godfrey offers up āEvidenceā, a mid-tempo song that can serve both as a testimony for what God has already done and as a prophetic declaration to receive what God has promised to do. The song came from a place of faith and thanksgiving.
On Gospel Heritage, Tim says, āI was truly excited to be a part of this project, with all of theĀ super artists from different parts of the world. My team and I prayerfully searched forĀ which song would work perfectly for this project. āĀ
āThe special part about this song is that itās like a love letter to my wife. I rememberĀ singing it to her the day I wrote it, and I told her that she is the evidence of GodāsĀ promises in my life.āĀ
