Description

In order to take a moment to talk about my album “The Wild Inside," I must highlight the United Pursuit community where all the music comes from. The greatest part of Knoxville TN are the people in my community. I know I'm biased, but these people have become my family. I have never been a part of anything so alive… I have never found such acceptance and love. The way you know if you're truly living in real community is if the people around you aspire to see you succeed in your calling and destiny as much as their own. I am very thankful to be part of a community that truly lives as family. Family is the only institution in the earth where love abounds. I have come to understand over the years that the Kingdom of God at its very core is a family. My hope is that everyone can experience the depth of relationship only family can give. It's the breeding ground for creativity and innovation. I pray that each person would find themselves as a son, brother, daughter, sister, mother, father, etc. In doing so you are building the Kingdom of God. You are building the only institution in the world that truly provides healing for the orphan. This is how caring for the orphan becomes the purest and most undefiled form of religion (James 1:27); it brings us back to our purest and simplest design, the design Papa God longs to see fill the earth: family. --Michael Ketterer
