Katy Nichole
Centricity Music’s Billboard Chartbreaker Katy Nichole globally releases her highly anticipated, full-length album debut, Jesus Changed My Life Feb. 24. This 11-track odyssey is filled with the unabashed honesty and vocal clarity that have made the 22-year-old one of Christian music’s fastest-rising artists. Going from deep depression and anxiety, due largely to complications from her scoliosis, to becoming one of the most successful breakout artists of 2022, Nichole’s story of suffering, hope and healing, a process which continues even today, is connecting with a worldwide audience. Jesus Changed My Life shares a window into her incredible account of transformation. Katy was singing in her church choir long before 150+ million people around the world heard her Dove Award-nominated, K-LOVE Fan Award-winning “In Jesus Name (God of Possible),” which is the first song this decade to reach 20-weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart. Writing songs and leading worship by age 18, Nichole’s relationship with both music and God is inextricably intertwined with her path through anxiety and depression to health and wholeness. Now 22, and having served as both an ambassador for the Shriners Hospitals for Children® and as a volunteer for Musicians On Call, Nichole has been nominated for an American Music Award, made her Grand Ole Opry debut, released her self-titled EP last summer, and realized her second-straight No. 1 with “God Is In This Story.” Breaking into the Top 5 on the Billboard Emerging Artist Chart and named a YouTube “Trending Artist On The Rise,” she released her “Jesus Changed My Life” video Jan. 31, 2023 and her single “Hold On” goes to radio April 10, 2023. “This song encapsulates that there’s a bigger picture beyond what you can see in the moment — beyond the pain, beyond the struggle. And holding on was the only way I could see that,” says Katy. Sharing her songs live for tens of thousands while on the road last year with Jeremy Camp, Matthew West and an array of artists on the “K-LOVE Christmas Tour,” she was also featured on this year’s “Rock the Universe” at Universal Orlando Resort and is poised to join CAIN for a 30-city run of dates beginning March 2. http://katynichole.com

SQuire and Louise DuArt Rushnell
GodWinks Devotional affirms a belief held by most readers: there is something more to coincidences than meets the eye. Like knowing winks from a loving parent or grandparent, coincidences are messages from your Maker that you are not alone, and everything will be okay. SQuire shows how you can retrace the crossroads (a death, a new job, a change in your relationship) that took you into a whole new direction, revealing the turning point coincidences that have guided you through life. The lesson: You will learn to uncover a map of winks from God to gain insight into your future. All you have to do is be alert and read the signs. The compelling theory of why coincidences exist and how to map them is applied to fascinating stories in history, sports, the news, medicine, and relationships involving everyday people and celebrities. Some of the captivating stories are familiar to readers but will be seen in a whole new light, one that is at once entertaining and inspiring. http://godwinks.com>
