The Throne is Too Heavy Part 3 | Zero Gravity

Some messages don’t get lost… they just find another way to be heard. This piece was first spoken live during a Face to Face gathering in Huger, SC. Right before the word began, the recording dropped. What was captured… was only the ending. But something about this message refused to stay partial. So this is it—whole. “Zero Gravity” isn’t about trying harder. It’s about finally letting go of the weight we were never meant to carry. The pressure to define yourself. The need to prove yourself. The exhaustion of constantly being on trial in your own mind. From Eden to Gethsemane… from the weight we picked up to the weight He carried… This is the story of returning to what we were always meant to be: Not performers. Not judges. Not our own god. But sons. Daughters. Free. If you’ve seen the clips… this is the full room. If you’ve ever felt the weight… this is the release. The throne is too heavy. But the door is still open. Come in… and move with the freedom of zero gravity.

The Blur Was Mercy | D.R. Ministries

I was beginning to tell my story… and pieces of it started fading away. I could remember the pain I went through, but not all of the recovery. I could remember being helped by three… but the faces began to escape me. It’s all becoming a blur… And maybe…just maybe…that’s mercy.

Sent | A Spoken Word Invitation for Face to Face

Sent is a spoken word message and invitation connected to the Face to Face gatherings. This piece explores something many people quietly carry: regret, the feeling of being behind, and the belief that past mistakes have disqualified them from purpose. Through reflection and testimony, the message challenges that assumption and reframes the story many of us tell about our lives. The idea behind Sent is simple: your past may not be the thing that disqualifies you — it may be the very thing God intends to use. This message now serves as an opening moment for the Face to Face gatherings, live worship experiences built around spoken word, music, testimony, and honest encounter. These gatherings are designed to create space where people can reflect, reconnect with God, and begin to see their story differently. The first gatherings will take place in South Carolina: 📍 Anderson, SC — April 17 📍 Charleston / Moncks Corner, SC — April 18 Additional venue details and event information will be shared soon.

The Throne is Too Heavy Part 2: The Door and The Dance (A Christian Spoken Word)

THE THRONE IS TOO HEAVY A 3-Part Podcast Series Part 2: The Door & The Dance Who gets in… and what happens once you’re inside? For centuries, Paul and James have been placed on opposite sides of an argument—as if one preached grace and the other preached pressure. But they were never enemies. They were guards. In this second chapter of The Throne Is Too Heavy, we step into a single room with two watchmen standing in different places—one at the door, one on the floor—both protecting the same sacred truth. Paul stands at the entrance, holding the door open wide, refusing to let grace be turned into a ladder or faith into a transaction. You don’t earn your way in. You don’t perform your way in. You don’t clean yourself up before you belong. James stands inside the room, watching believers who know the words but have stopped moving. Because faith that never touches your hands eventually dies in your mouth. Belief was never meant to be a badge—it was meant to be a transformation. This episode explores: • Why grace must be guarded at the door • Why faith must be lived once you’re inside • How belief can become stagnant without obedience • And why the Bible isn’t divided—people are Set again to a gentle, reflective soundscape, this is not a debate to win or a doctrine to weaponize. It’s an invitation to enter honestly… and live faithfully. If you’ve been standing outside, convinced you don’t belong… The door is open. If you’ve been standing inside, convinced belief is enough… Let it move you. Two guards. One door. One room. Faith saves you. And faith changes you. Come in. Then dance.

Mirror

Have you ever looked your SOUL in the mirror? This episode invites you to slow down and meet yourself again — not through the world’s reflection, but through the eyes of God. It’s a moment of stillness where the mirror stops reflecting and starts revealing. Through raw reflection and spiritual truth, I share what happens when we strip away what the world has layered on us — and we see the image that God designed from the very beginning. 🎙️ Written and voiced by Deryl Richardson, founder of D.R.
