Magi
Hello again, ApX fans! It's the not the night before Christmas (it's only November), and we're not caroling door to door, but here's a new holiday tune. It's not a sad song, but it may take your nativity set and shake it up a little. Did you know the Wise Men didn't meet Jesus at the stable? Let's go take another look at Matthew 2, and think it over.
Little Jesus (Simeon's Song)
All of Jerusalem was restless for the coming of the One promised by Moses, Isaiah, Daniel, and other prophets of their religion. The clock was ticking, but they didn't see the big picture, chasing the crown of a king rather than a crown of thorns. Then, out of the blue, a single man named Simeon made the greatest discovery one day in the Temple ...

Released in mid-November, our 23rd single of 2023 spoofs two #1 hits by ladies of the '80s.
Quizzical
Picture this: Delilah tells Samson to come on over and starts working her magic. “Sam,” she says, “I honestly love you, and I'm hopelessly devoted to you. How about showing me a little more love? If you love me, let me know by telling me how you got so strong. Please, mister, please. If you don't, I've suddenly got something better to do.”
Take My Guest Away
Samson was stronger than steel, but Delilah wasn't all pink and velvet. She brought secrets into their love life, too. After getting the information she wanted, she dropped the masquerade, dumping him like trash in the blink of an eye. Did she ever feel remorse? No more words about her are in the Bible, and there's no one left alive to ask.

Released in late October, our 22nd single of 2023 spoofs a #1 pop hit from the '70s and a #2 rock hit from the '80s.
Samson & Delilah
Samson was a fool in love with a liberated woman who cared little for love stuff. That's easy to see in the rear-view mirror, but the prism of passion distorted his vision, and he ended up fallin' in a deep hole. Delilah's heart was merely an apartment for rent, and she was willing to endure a brief third-rate romance with Mr. Wrong if it made her rich.
One Thing Leads to the Father
There are two different views/opinions on salvation: biblical and unbiblical. The Bible says your house will stand or fall depending on whether or not it's built upon the precious stone the builders rejected – the crucified Christ. Yet some people question that and look for sunshine in the shade. Anyone else think that's a bad idea? Wake up!

The second was by an English group and hit #1 there while making the Top 10 in America.
I Can't Grow From That (Nor Can You)
When there's heavy rain and you're trying to keep your head above water, you want to have your prayers rocket to God and not have a delayed reaction. But if He did it in a minute, there might be a missed opportunity for your faith to grow. Keep looking for a good sign from above, even when the sky is falling. His answers are worth the wait.
Read Acts
The early followers of the Way preached the Gospel not for personal gain but for Heaven's sake, though they knew others would tag them as troublemakers and rage hard in an all-out war against them. The New Testament's fifth book tells their story and shows the power of love in Christ. Is anybody out there who hasn't read it yet? You should!

Released in early October, our 20th single of 2023 spoofs songs by a couple of East Coast American artists whose names begin with the letter P. Each of them has had four #1 hits.
Get the Barber Started
Delilah wasn't like most girls and didn't try to be. She was a woman who knew what she wanted, and it wasn't true love. Her sights were set on money, not a family portrait. So what started out for Samson as a feel-good time full of passion that burned like fire turned out to be nothing but trouble. Her affection dissipated like glitter in the air.
You Can Call Weird Al
In ApologetiX, we have a good time trying to add an otherworldly quality to so-called “worldly” music. We don't expect congratulations or tenderness from critics; they don't think too much of people who rewrite rock classics, especially when numbers get serious about the Lord and the afterlife. One man's ceiling is another man's floor.

Pretty Dried Up
As meteorology gets better, it's so easy to forget who really controls the weather. There was a time when a couple bad apples on Israel's throne caused such a moral breakdown that God sent a three-year drought! If not for His mercy, Israel would've been reduced to dust and bones. Absurd, you say? If you think He can't do it again, you're crazy.
Matthew 9
There's a place in Matthew's Gospel where the former bad boy tells how the Lord came into his life, fixing a hole that all the money he'd made as a taxman couldn't fill. Christ released him from chains of misery, setting him free as a bird, and he no longer had to carry that weight of guilt and shame. It's all too much for us, but not for Jesus.

James 1:3
It seems as if the sun always shines on TV, but time and again you find yourself hunting high and low for a little bit of the blue sky in your own life. As you lie down in darkness, it feels like you’re barely hanging on, and you're worried you’ll end up crying forever. Trust God. Trials are tough but temporary; you have what it takes to triumph.
Yes Today
You can come to Jesus any time at all, but if you plan to wait till later, what you're doing isn't wise. Salvation is vital; don't let it be something you put off! You can't do that ... for no one knows when the end will come. Get back to the Word of God, read Hebrews 3

Released in mid-August, our 17th single of 2023 spoofs two songs from two decades by three artists from three different countries representing three different genres of music.
Try Another Town
Many of Paul's foes thought he was a liar or even stone cold crazy. Others were motivated by jealousy. But he was a cool cat when under pressure and kept preaching heaven for everyone who'd listen. Was it all worth it? All God's people say amen. Still, he knew that moving on from a hot space was sometimes the best way to keep yourself alive.
For All the gods I've Loved Before
The night life promises good times if you take it to the limit, but it ain't necessarily so. There's a great divide between fantasy and reality, and what happens after the party's over? It's funny how time slips away, so it won't be long. That's life; check your family Bible. It may sound crazy, but if you willingly come to Christ, a beautiful time awaits.

Released in early August, our 16th single of 2023 spoofs two songs you'd probably never hear on the same radio station. One is ‘70s British rock and the other is ‘90s American pop, but both feature enough guitar pyrotechnics to satisfy any self-respecting shredder.
Laughed At
Some folks can be pretty nasty in their mockery of God and His people, but that’s alright; He's still in control, and His Word is the truth, even if they don’t believe anything it says. Let ‘em scream all they want. Truly, it doesn’t really matter what they think. God scoffs at their escapades and every new agenda formed against Him (Psalm 2:1-4).
Hairy Star
The angel of the LORD told Manoah’s barren wife she'd have a child in time, a son. Raised to be a holy man, he turned into a hard-lovin’ man — a mad dog with a bad attitude — a living wrecking ball. Never before was there a man like this. No one came close in strength. Now what?! Lay down, stay down! Listen, learn, read on in Judges 13.

In the Afterlife
We wait and we wonder when the Son of Man will return. Tomorrow never knows, and you can’t hurry love, but we don’t have to wonder if there’s a place for us in His kingdom. Though you can’t turn back the years, it’s not too late to make your reservation, no matter who you are. Many Bible verses testify to that. Do you know, do you care?
Timothy
As he composed his final epistle, Paul’s situation was nothing to write home about: in chains, imprisoned like a caged rat in Rome, where he might disappear without a trace. Though close to death, he remained a fearless leader, encouraging Timothy to stand up and be strong. Whoa! Ain’t that tough? Don’t it make your troubles seem small?

Released in early July, our 14th single of 2023 spoofs some standout songs from the debut discs of decidedly different American artists.
Sadducees
Sadducees believed the Pentateuch but were too stubborn to believe the Gospel. They'd never trust a stranger from Galilee and would've preferred for Jesus to stay in the country where a country boy belongs rather than walkin' and talkin' in Jerusalem, but He was bound and determined to walk outside the lines, bringing them all to a crossroad.
Just a Big Galoot/I Ain't Got No Buddies
Samson could stand up to anything his enemies threw at him, with a counter-blast like an elephant gun. Relentless as a big train and cuddly as a hammerhead shark, our hero also enjoyed the night life. He wasn't a shy boy and probably had the ladies goin' crazy. Alas, bad habits took him from king of the hill to the bottom of the pile.

Released in late June, our 13th single of 2023 spoofs Top 10 hits by two American groups from the East Coast. Each got their start in the early ‘70s, and both were eventually inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
You Just Might Need Kung Fu
Some men tried to fight Samson mano a mano, but only love could defeat him. Well, don’t blame it on love. He and Delilah seemed so close, talking all night as she played guessing games, but Samson was out of touch with reality and falling into a trap. An unguarded minute would prove his undoing; some things are better left unsaid.
Septuagint
Any major dude will tell you everything must go through changes to stay relevant. God’s Word doesn’t change (only a fool would say that it does), but words we use to relay it do. The King James Bible seems almost gothic (the slang of ages gone by) to some. You can’t keep the language of the time out of mind when translating for your audience.

Wicked
Everyone sins, but when we do it, it’s not right to blame uncontrollable urges. Are we not men and women with freedom of choice? Then why do so many of us seem stuck in a loop, searching for satisfaction in strange pursuits without ever looking at the big picture? God has a plan for you and for all of us. Let’s go find out what it is.
Clip It
Samson wasn't always a happy guy but took time out for fun. After judging Israel for 20 years, he found himself under the jurisdiction of love. Sadly, he was a bit of a blockhead, got sloppy, and wound up in a big mess. As he awakened, agitated, from a deep sleep, something seemed out of sync, and his strength seemed to shrivel up.

Yonder Island
Paul warned the centurion and sailors the trip would be disastrous, but they ignored his advice. You should know better than that. Soon the empty sky was full of dark clouds, the winds would turn it up a notch, and the crew was losing control as waves battered the ship time and time again. But God used it all to bring them to the Island of Malta.
Abraham Amazed
Abraham lived a wild life, traveling here, there, and everywhere as the LORD gave him a new name and address(es). However absurd it may seem to you, the man believed God's promise that 90-year-old Sarah would have a son. And when later told to sacrifice the dear boy, he set out for Moriah, never letting go of his hope of deliverance on the way.

Humble Or You'll Stumble
Pride has been the saboteur of countless millions of men and ladies, even backdoor angels. We used to know it was a deadly sin. If you could go back and ask people living in the past (even the dark ages) they'd tell you. Look inside the Bible; God's Son still speaks about it. Though He was (and is) the perfect one, He humbled Himself for us.
Itchin' to Hide
In the beginning, Saul liked David. Now he couldn't stand him. Where did all the good times go? Early in the morning, Jonathan confirmed David's fears: He couldn't stay, waiting for nightfall, or come tomorrow, he'd be dead. With nowhere to go in Israel that was safe, he wouldn't be coming home for a while, but staying alive was better by far.

30 Days in a Row
Say what you will, but when you get down to it, we all face temptations that can turn into addictions. Too often, we think we can work it out ourselves and say, “Lord, I'll go alone. I can take it from here.” Baby, don't do it! There's no way to overcome darkness like that without His light. If we turn to Jesus every single day, He'll lead us on to victory.
Violent Girl
You can't start writing about the Old Testament judge Barak without understanding women played a huge role in his success. Not just the prophetess Deborah but also the hammer-wielding heroine Jael. She was once a mellow woman living a simple life without any fanfare or spotlight, far from the heavy traffic of the city. Now her name's in neon.

Released in mid-April, our eighth single of 2023 spoofs a pair of Top 10 singles released by British bands in 1978.
Ease Your Burden
Religion without a relationship can make you look respectable while feeling blue and lonesome — a slave to complicated regulations, waiting for when the whip comes down. It's too tough to live that way. Jesus shattered the lies that Heaven is achieved by such things. He wants to take that heavy load you're carrying and let it loose.
Everyone's a Sinner
Contrary to what the world says, life isn't about dollar signs and sex appeal, and we should never pretend it is. What about you? The party's on, and everyone's laughing, but are you getting enough happiness, going through the motions in a mindless boogie? All it takes to get it right is a heartfelt cry to God, simple as a child's prayer.

Released in early April, our seventh single of 2023 spoofs a pair of rock bands who had two Top 10 hits apiece. One group's from England and had their hits in the '80s. The other's from the United States and had theirs in the '90s. We've spoofed each act's first Top 10 entry.
Everybody Can Come to Christ
Why let the devil live rent free in your head when you could have Jesus living in your heart? Satan is driving you to depression with overwhelming feelings of guilt. Wouldn't you rather exchange that for the true love of Christ? What's so bad about feeling good? Talk it out with the Lord and make a confession straight from the heart.
Every Day About You
Christians seem to be America's least-wanted special-interest group these days. Folks talk about loving your neighbor but treat us like the enemy, and the names they call us are uglier than they used to be. Don't go away mad; just go and pray. God our Father wants us to live lives above reproach and shine like lights in the midst of a dark world.

Released in mid-March, our sixth single of 2023 spoofs a couple American artists from the two largest cities in the Northeast.
Evidence
Christ called His disciples to be fishers of men, but you can't partake in the catch of the day until you dare to stop dancing on the edge and emerge from the shadow of Jesus. Nobody but you can make that move. The joy of the Lord shouldn't be a private emotion. We should express it day by day in our ordinary lives. Don't knock it 'til you try it.
I Rewrite the Songs
Well, it looks like we made it 31 years as a Christian parody band already. Could it be magic? No, it's a miracle! Even now, we're amazed. Many of the old songs have beautiful music, but with some you don't even want to say the words; you read 'em and weep. Let's hang on and make full use of all the time and talent God has given us.

Released in early March, our fifth single of 2023 spoofs the first Top 40 hits by a pair of popular American artists who tallied a total of over 30 such songs between them.
Elijah's Lament
Believe it or not, after all those miracles, Elijah wanted to wave the white flag when hard times came. He ran away rather than stand and fight. But Jezebel was a satanic steamroller, and Elijah thought he was the only one left who followed the LORD as he traveled that lonesome road. Then, lo and behold, God shed a little light on the situation.
E.Z.Kiel
Many folks mislabel Ezekiel's first vision as a UFO visitation, because it came out of the sky. Whether they have a sinister purpose or are just lookin' for a reason to cause a commotion, they need someone to hold them accountable. It's just a thought, but perhaps we should read what the Bible says before we expect aliens to come sail away with us.

Released in mid-February, our fourth single of 2023 contains parodies of #1 hits from 1965 and 1988. We first spoofed these songs in the early '90s and then again in the early 2000s, but we left plenty of room for improvement. This time around, we finally have 'em right where we want 'em.
Every Crown Has Its Thorns
Anyone who thinks following Jesus will be nothing but a good time is in for a rude awakening, but the Christian life goes on come hell or high water. It's hard to understand the love Christ must've had to become our flesh and blood sacrifice until you suffer some yourself. However, God can cause things that seem bad to be good for us in the long run.
Eight Ways to Be
Do you want to know a secret? Every little thing you need to be happy and blessed is in Matthew 5:2-12. It's not some long, long, long list, but the virtues Jesus speaks of in those verses aren't always the way we act naturally. He'd love you to try, though, and if you ask for His help, it won't be long before you find yourself getting better at them.

Ask God
Looking for love and a godly mate but they haven't come running to you? God doesn't often move like this. Nevertheless, everything you say in your prayers is getting through. You might think your search will drag on forever and you can't hold on too long or it'll drive you crazy. But keep on knocking. It's not too late, and it could happen soon.
Riders From the Lord
John said God would send the Four Horsemen someday. When's He gonna do it? Strange days are upon us, and people are stranger than ever, wishful, sinful, prideful, evil. Summer's almost gone and the end of the night will soon be here. They're not to touch the earth till the appointed time, but they'll break on through when the music's over.

Released in late January, our second single of 2023 spoofs a couple Top 5 hits — one by a British band in the late '60s and another by an American band in the early '70s.
A Wider Shape of Whale
Moby Dick is a classic, but without a doubt the best known of all whaling stories is in the Book of Jonah, and quite rightly so. The former is fiction whereas the latter is nothing but the truth, and the truth won't fade away. Even Jesus refers to it in two different chapters of the Gospel According to Matthew and one more time in Luke.
Sad Today in the Dark
Now more than ever, there are many folks out there with hearts in trouble who've been searching so long but wound up chasing the wind. If you start a dialogue with them, it could be the beginnings of something wonderful. You don't know what you're missing. Perhaps you're the inspiration they're seeking to make them feel alive again.

Released in early January, our first single of 2023 features a double dose from Down Under; both songs are parodies of Top 10 hits from the '80s by bands that originated in Australia (the city of Melbourne, Victoria, to be specific).
Over The Hill
Growing up, 21 seems to usher in a golden age of no restrictions. Then you hit 30 and catch a startling realization that you've been giving up youth to gain experience. But no matter your age, it's crazy to think you'll reach tomorrow with a face that shows no sign of yesterday. Our time here is a moving picture, not a still-life painting.
Something Goes Wrong
When you come to a roadblock in life, and it seems things will never be the same, it's only natural to feel like you can't carry on. Don't stop now. Help is coming. God makes sure that ultimately everything is good for you. Nothing happens in isolation. Even if it seems awful on the surface, deeper down it could be the start of something awesome.

Released in mid-December, our 24th single of 2022 features two parodies whose titles start with the letter E, originally performed by artists whose names start with the letter B.
Elizabeth's Song
Christ's birth was one of two foretold in Luke 1. When Zechariah gives everyone the silent treatment, there's more than meets the eye. Now we see everything in a different light; he's got a secret he literally can't tell. Later, when his wife sees Mary standing in the hallway of their home, she realizes there will be a special bond between the two boys.
Eve of Instruction
What good would it do for the Prince of Peace to be born in a town and country ruled by Romans, who were masters of war, and King Herod, who had his own inner manipulations? Yet that little boy grew up to fulfill the Messianic prophecies one by one. Try to remember that. Christmas comes so quickly. Why not stop and dig it while you can?

Released in early December, our 23rd single of 2022 features parodies about two famous Old Testament luminaries. One is a guy who's been the subject of several of our songs; the other is a fellow we've only mentioned in passing until now.
Ezra
Until the night Babylon fell, the return of the Jews to their homeland seemed unlikely, but sometimes a fantasy comes true. Afterward, Ezra the priest taught with honesty and without shades of grey, keeping the faith of God's people focused on His Word and helping them turn around their lifestyles when they didn't get it right the first time.
Play Fair Delilah
Even if Delilah's incessant inquiries about the source of his strength didn't make Samson stop dating her, you'd think they would have at least given him pause. It was time to move on from that girl. Opting to stay was a serious mistake he'd someday regret. He got revenge with his last breath, but it's still a sad story, and he'd never love again.

Bad Citizen
A believer's life isn't always a bed of roses these days, but Christianity wasn't exactly a runaway hit with society in the first place. Many have attempted to crush the church, but it has always bounced back, and that's a miracle in itself. Not everyone living in sin is looking for something to believe in, but the Bible is true even if they say it isn't so.
Can't Let the Crowd in My Head
Even as the Gospel was being preached all over the world, Peter knew there was danger ahead. Whether on the run from Herod or in the twilight of his life, awaiting execution under Nero, he knew in time he'd have to face the music. His mission was so serious, but he would hold on tight to the promise of an eternal reward above the clouds.

Enter Samson
Every time you turn the page in the Book of Judges, there's a new hero of the day. The most famous of these disposable heroes is Samson. He was one bad dude and no Prince Charming. In fact, the Philistines probably saw him as some kind of monster. But when they finally had him helpless, they foolishly gave him a chance to reload.
Gain in Vain (Can't Buy Me)
One way the crooked beat (and cheat) the system is through bribery. This hateful practice is nothing new; the Bible is full of references to judges and others in authority being operated by remote control. But the righteous Judge will be the great equalizer up in Heaven. They know your rights (even if they deny them), but He knows their wrongs.

ApologetiX 30th Anniversary Challenge Coins Available for a Donation
The Roman Empire rewarded soldiers with special coins to recognize their achievements. In the 20th century, similar coins were used to identify specific units or divisions in the U.S. military. Today, the challenge coin is a popular item with law enforcement, fire departments, motorcycle clubs, and other organizations.
We just got a second batch of ApologetiX 30th Anniversary challenge coins that were custom-made and given to us by longtime ApX fan Paul “Doc” Nigh of Sgt. Nigh's Designs to use as fundraisers for our ministry. The first batch were enormously popular with fans, but we ran out of them quickly. Now they’re back!
These beautiful coins are 1.75” in diameter and 3 mm thick, made of zinc alloy and hard enamel. One side recognizes the band's 30th anniversary and the other side says “That Christian Parody Band.” Both sides have the band's name, the triquetra symbol, and our mission statement: “Reach the lost, teach the rest.” Each coin comes in a double-folded plastic coin sleeve.
While supplies last, we're sending an ApologetiX challenge coin to fans who specifically request one and make a donation of $50 or more. Sorry, because of the high cost of shipping internationally, we can only ship these particular items to U.S. locations.
Please use the donate button in this section, because it will tell us you are specifically requesting one of these coins with your donation.
NOTE: The coin cannot be combined with other donation offers for our complete library, singles downloads, USBs, songbook, or lapel pins.

Released in late October, our 20th single of 2022 spoofs a pair of similarly themed rock hits that enjoyed similar success. One went to #12 on the pop chart and #1 on the rock chart in '83. The other went to #13 on the pop chart and #2 on the rock chart in '84. Both came from albums that went to #2 and sold over 10 million copies.
Slow to Wrath
God is slow to anger, and we should follow suit, but some excitable believers let their animal emotions run riot, refusing to let it go when wronged. Love and affection dissipate when they're comin' under fire, and their tempers rise faster than a rocket. But Heaven is watching us, and we'll all have to answer to the Master for our tempers. No foolin'.
Why Wait?
Everybody wants somebody to tell them from afar when judgment day will occur, but the secrets aren't locked away inside some cathedral. The Lord gave fair warning that no man knows exactly when He'll be back to light up the sky, but He also told us to be ready. When push comes to shove, that should be good enough right now.

The Devil Incites
Eve was a beautiful girl, heaven-sent for Adam, but the serpent put questions in her head. After eating the one thing she wasn't supposed to, she felt a new sensation, and it wasn't a good one. So why did Adam just keep walking into an obvious trap and make the decision to taste it, too? It's mystifying. Bitter tears would follow their original sin.
Greed River
These are gloomy times for both the working man and the beggar on the side of the road. Don't look now, but those clinging to wealth in this world will have a rude awakening in the next when the pendulum swings the other way. But there are better days up around the bend for those storing up treasure in Heaven. What are you gonna do?

A Few Who Have Skill
Is there anyone out there on planet earth who is so misled that they think they have no gifts from God? To whom it may concern: He gave talents to each of us. Make sure you don't get tempted to leave yours buried in the sand. Nothing will bring you more joy than to use them for His glory. Like Bezalel and Oholiab, this could be your finest hour.
Heaven's Gonna Lift You Up
God says ”that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth” (Philippians 2:10). Some folks are waiting for the bell to ring, but by then it'll be too late to cry for help. Time is slipping away. He wants us all to be together forever in Heaven, but this could be your last night on earth. Pray with me.

You Simply Write Down (My Directions)
David felt Israel had gone too long without a house for God, so he told Nathan he wanted to build one. The prophet agreed, but before he could turn around and count to ten, God told him David's son would be the one to do it. But that didn't mean there was absolutely nothing David could do. God showed him how to make a special start.
You've Got to Write Stuff
Though imprisoned on the Isle of Patmos, the Apostle John kept hanging tough, and he'd hold on till the end, even after his brother and the other Apostles were martyred. After all, he'd seen Jesus come back to life. The Good News he shared back then still sounds good today. Make sure his words aren't wasted on you or twisted by you.

Rebuild This City
The burning of Jerusalem and the destruction of its walls left the Jews with no protection. Survivors were sent to Babylon, and many thought the descendants of Abraham and Sarah were finished, but it's not over till it's over. God would hear the cries of their desperate hearts and bring them home. And He'd already sent a prophet to say when.
All That Stuff's in There to Remind Me
Despite the words of Hebrews 10:25, many churchgoers are burning bridges and flying solo. Maybe they've been hurt or it could be they just don't want to sacrifice their Sundays anymore, The Book of Acts is a very hard act to follow, but when the lights go out in your local church, its exodus from the premises promises to be problematic.

Released in mid-August, our 15th single of 2022 spoofs a couple songs by European artists that became big U.S. hits in '75 and '95, with both of them going gold.
Someone Shaved My Locks Tonight
The strongman Samson wasn't a myth like Hercules, although he wasn't a saint, either. He just wanted to take the foxy Delilah and wrap her up in his arms, but we all fall in love sometimes with people we shouldn't. Thus he became a victim of love, and the house fell down. Still, he believed he'd be better off dead than a slave to the Philistines.
God and I Know
You may think you're wild and free, but the devil's on the loose, and the chase is on. All of us are racing to a final destination; where you gonna go in the end? Will you be rolling home to Heaven or someplace else? That depends on Jesus. Are you depending on Him? Is He alive in your heart or are you riding alone?

Released in late July, our 14th single of 2022 features parodies of two female-fronted #1 songs from the second half of the '80s. Both tunes we spoofed were themselves cover versions of massive hits originally released in the second half of the '60s.
I Think We're in Rome Now
After King Agrippa II saw him standing there testifying, he said Paul could've been set free if only he hadn't appealed to Caesar. But Paul knew inside he had to drop that bomb in order to get to Rome. There could never be any second-guessing, even after he got shipwrecked on the way. He'd be alright. Besides, it gave him a moment to rest.
Jesus (Sermon on the Mount)
Jesus wasn't just a preacher man whose oratory skills were a cut above the rest. He was really saying something and did so with love, truth, and honesty rather than legalism, tradition, and rough justice. His miracles proved He had a hotline to Heaven, but he performed more than physical healings; He had the words of eternal life. Wow!

Released in mid-July, our 13th single of 2022 revisits a couple parodies from two of our early CDs, both originally done by bands whose names begin with the letter L.
Lightning Flashes
The Bible foretells the future, and to weak or strong it is known, but it's easier not to be wise and measure these things by your brains than to be pinned down and abused for being strange. Nobody knows the day of Christ's return, but it seems we're at a late stage, and He gave us enough info that it shouldn't catch the brothers unaware. Get ready!
I Know a Riddle
Samson was a simple man, but he wasn't pure and simple, and he had things goin' on his life that didn't happen to every mother's son. One day, while searching for a sweet little missy to marry, he met a lion on the hunt and killed it with his bare hands. On the way home, he found honeybees inside the carcass. And that gave him an idea …

Released in early July, our 12th single of 2022 spoofs the biggest hits of two different rock bands — one from the 70's and one from the 80's. The first band's name contains all the letters needed to spell the second band's name.
Fold Your Tent Up
The life of a believer can be a lonely hard road sometimes, but you have to keep on rolling. Though we are strangers and aliens in this world, God doesn't expect us to be infinite wanderers. Be strong and rejoice despite the pressure. In time, He'll lead you on the road back home to a celebration that will bring you joy that's everlasting.
Lost and Found
Ever since the morning after our ancestors decided to take a big bite of the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden, mankind has been trying to return to the scene of the crime to go back for more. But Someone else had to live a sinless life and lay it down for us. You should know by now. We really can't blame it on lack of communication from God.

Released in mid-June, our 11th single of 2022 is another Detroit double-feature, spoofing songs by two acts who helped keep the Motor City on the music map in the 70's.
I Was Made for Revenue
What makes the world go 'round? One famous Broadway musical says it's love; another says it's money. The enemy of your soul promises both and says he's got love for sale, but it costs too much, and it's never enough. He's been unmasked as a killer who is secretly cruel and will leave you down on your knees with nowhere to run.
God Can Do
We're living in no man's land in the aftermath of an all-out assault on God. Yet even now, there are those with their faces pressed against the window, looking to see if the fire inside you is genuine. Are you willing to take a chance and show them the real love behind your cross of gold? We've got to light up the world till it shines for Christ.

Released in early June, our 10th single of 2022 spoofs two bands that are often associated with Detroit because they first achieved superstar status there, although neither band originated in Michigan. One came from 600 miles away and the other from 2000 miles away.
Telescoper
Some folks are so smitten with science that they love it to death. Years ago, it was used as a way to explain things. Now it's used to explain things away. We've got atheists makin' all that noise 'cause they found new toys that show the cosmos is even bigger than they thought. But we think that's actually a killer argument for God.
Death
They say there are only two certainties in life: death and taxes. Taxes may be evadable, but death is inescapable. That makes death seem larger than life, but it's actually the other way around. Death is a destroyer, but Jesus — the Way, the Truth, and the Life — will destroy death forever. It's just the last domino to fall (1 Corinthians 15:26, 54).

The Real Need
Imagine a man between sea and sand, pondering a dangerous step of faith. He gets the sensation someone's coming, and there's no detour, but he's afraid he could get drowned. It all sparks an amazing journey. By the time the song is over, you'll realize it's not about Moses, but the singer is sending you a postcard from the Promised Land.
Sabbath Day's Quite Alright for Nice Things
The ancient prophets had said Messiah would come down in time, but when He did, religious authorities didn't recognize Him as the blessed One. Though He lived a mellow, simple life, Jesus had more power in His pinky than the bitter fingers of all the nasties in high positions who opposed Him. Nevertheless, He gives salvation to all who believe.

Released in early May, our eighth single of 2022 spoofs a couple big hits from the late 70's by two groups that each featured guitarists who'd had even bigger hits with other groups in the late 60's.
Acts 20
Eutychus was the victim of a sermon gone wild (too long). Maybe he'd been up late Saturday night and that's why he dozed off Sunday night, but he fell three stories and died, and God used Paul to resurrect him. He could've been the kid next door; Acts 20 isn't overloaded with details. But this advice is right on the money: Please, please, please stay awake in church!
Imagine How He Loves Us
God's Son came to Earth as a flesh-and-blood human being, not some invulnerable alien like Superman. But it wasn't normal love Jesus showed; it was crazy, unique, awesome love. It sounds spooky, but He was born ready to die. And He gave His disciples Gospel seeds to sow into you. Don't miss the message. With all due respect, how much love is enough for you?

Released in late April, our seventh single of 2022 spoofs hits from two #1 albums — one that topped the U.S. album chart for five weeks and sold 2 million copies and another that topped the U.S. album chart for two weeks and sold 5 million copies. In each case, the album in question was the only U.S. chart-topper of that particular artist's career.
Good Works Don't
Are you frustrated with trying to make yourself good enough for God? You can't put a price on love given freely. If you feel distant from the Lord in your spiritual pursuits, it's not Him; it's you. Maybe tonight you should stop doing things the hard way and read Ephesians 2:8-9. It could change your life in a heartbeat. Just wait and see.
969
The Bible says Adam and his early descendants had long lifespans, some close to a thousand years, but those days are long gone. Now it's uncommon to find somebody this side of paradise who lives to be 100. Still, Jesus offers everlasting life in Heaven to all who call upon His name. You want it, you got it. What's it gonna be? Let Him know.

Released in early April, our sixth single of 2022 spoofs two Top 10 songs about gals named Val — one from the 60's and one from the 80's.
Galilee (The Man with the Withered Hand)
The presence of the Lord in the synagogue on that Sabbath resulted in a split decision: It was happiness for a man with a withered hand and misery for the Pharisees, who never appreciated the finer things Jesus did. But it surely brought more traffic to Galilee. Matthew chronicles the story, as do Mark and Luke. so you don't need blind faith to believe it.
Galilee (The Land of the Risen Man)
The Jerusalem church's opening ceremony was amazing. Then Peter got up to say a few words. Oh my my. As we go along through the Book of Acts, we see God did miracles daily, nightly, anytime, anyplace, anywhere. That was then, this is now, but the Savior who changes you is the same One who changed them, for Pete's sake.

Released in late March, our fifth single of 2022 spoofs a couple mid-70's rock classics by bands from Scotland and Ireland, each of whom had exactly one U.S. Top 40 hit.
Heir of Our God
We should expect no mercy from the devil and his big dogs as they run rampant in these changing times. But here's the catch: Christ exercises authority over all demonic powers, reducing them to broken-down angels. Anyone who tries to hurt one of the children God has adopted in love hurts only themselves in the end, and that's no jive.
The Boys Aren't Backin' Down
Look what the wind blew in! The Church's first Pentecost was a wild one. Apparently, Jesus' disciples wouldn't be running back to their fishing boats. They were alive and dangerous, and a showdown with the authorities was inevitible. But those who tried to give them a bad reputation as a renegade sect found themselves fighting against God.

Released in mid-March, our fourth single of 2022 spoofs two big-time British bands who got their start in the 70's. Ironically, each of them had exactly nine Top 40 hits and one #1 album.
Good Comin' from Bad
Maybe you don't feel like makin' lovely things out of ugly things, but God can't get enough of it! Romans 5:20 (NLT) says, “But as people sinned more and more, God's wonderful grace became more abundant.” Movin' on, Romans 8:28 says, "God causes everything to work together for the good” of those He calls. How about that?
Every Step to Take
Romans 10:9 says: "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” It's only two steps, but giant steps are what you take. If you've already done that and have seen Him work in your life, please share your testimony, so others can start walking in your footsteps.

Released in mid-February, our third single of 2022 spoofs an American group we've never covered before and a British solo artist we've covered three times before. In fact, this fourth time is actually our second attempt at the song we spoofed the first time.
If You Really Wanna Get to Heaven
In Acts 2:40, Peter urged the crowd, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." He wasn't suggesting they could secure salvation on their own, because he'd already told them "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Acts 2:21). If you wanna get to Heaven, you've got to raise a little help (actually, a lot of help) from the only One who can raise you.
Sin Can Be Resistible
You might as well face it: No matter what you're addicted to, every kind of sin is resistible. As the Bible says, "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it” (1 Corinthians 10:13).

I'm Too Stressed
Only certain people love pressure, and it's obvious that big-time stress can make most of us all feel like throwing our hands up in frustration and smashing our heads against the wall. But it's deeply dippy for Christians to complain about stress if we live a life that doesn't include prayer, God's Word, and fellowship. Those simple things are vital.
The Giver of Dreams
Though he'd been in prison for the longest time, Joseph was an innocent man and knew he'd be moving out someday. Still, nothing happened until the night Pharaoh had two nightmares that got him all shook up. Everybody has a dream like that somewhere along the line, and the need for an explanation gave Joe his big shot at redemption.

Don't Scoff
We've been told over and over that Christ will return someday. These strange times may suggest we're on the ledge. Is it midnight? Not yet, but sooner or later it will be, and when He comes back the second time, that's all for everyone. The Bible gives a blow-by-blow account of the chain of events. Scoff if you like, but it's not that funny.
Enjoy the Science
While we embrace salvation in Heaven, God's people are people who face condemnation on earth. Though we follow His policy of truth-telling, we're seen as violators of the law, slandered by blasphemous rumors that right is wrong. But it's no good to fret and useless to get upset, because it's nothing personal; Jesus faced it, too (John 15:18).

Released in late December, our 22nd single of 2021 spoofs Top 10 pop hits from the 80's by two American artists who never hit the Top 25 again. But they had a dozen Top 10 rock hits between them. One of the songs we spoofed hit the Top 5 on the pop charts but only the Top 10 on the rock charts. The other song hit the Top 5 on the rock chart but only hit the Top 10 on the pop chart.
Toughened Up
While the other Israelites saw Goliath and could only whisper, “Look at that, look at that,” David said, “I don't care; stand back.” Faith is powerful stuff when you're trusting in the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel. It enabled a shepherd boy who'd already killed a lion and a bear to take a stone, wrap it up in a sling, and take down a giant.
Once Livin' Twice Died
Once in a great while, you may see a bumper sticker that says: “Born twice, die once. Born once, die twice.” The first part is based on John 3:3; the second is based on Revelation 20:14-15. If you're unfamiliar with those passages, don't be shy about looking them up. If you're unsure where you're going in life, they should make you think twice.

Released in mid-December, our 21st single of 2021 has the spirit of '76: One of the songs we spoofed came out on a #2 single in 1976 (although the album where it first appeared was released in '75) and the other came out on a #2 album in 1976 (although the single didn't come out until '77).
Ego Scuffle
Self-righteous religious leaders lost it when Jesus gave the lowdown on what they were really like inside. How dare He give them a hard time? Maybe “sinners" thought it was funny, but they were sick and tired of it, and there was a breakdown dead ahead. Some change had to be made soon or more people might decide to follow that man.
Lord Is Alive (Paul Before Agrippa)
Though unjustly imprisoned, Paul got the feeling he was in the right place when summoned to stand before Agrippa. Paul could've felt a silent fury, but he knew his fate was held by a much higher authority, and you can't find a judge who can thwart God's will. The king was empty inside, and Paul had something special to share with him.

Select Me After You
Elisha served his apprenticeship living on the front line with Elijah in a hostile country. That is why we are not surprised he became another revolutionary prophet. When it came time to let go and allow Elijah to be taken up, Elisha decided he was going for broke and made a bold request. Elijah put a hold on it, but Elisha got his wish soon thereafter.
I Can't Go Back
Finding everlasting life probably wasn't high on your list of priorities as a kid. Nevertheless, there comes the moment of truth later when we realize we need it. Jesus gave vital signs to prove He was the One that really matters. If you'll examine His Word, you'll realize the search is over. What do you really think? Are you ready for the real thing?

Plagues
Let's go out to Egypt 'cause it's in the plan. See the mind of Pharaoh? It's like shifting sand. He was a rough boy who got meek under pressure, but he'd double back on his word repeatedly. However, God is an eliminator of pride. His judgments against Egypt came in stages, and Pharaoh probably felt like a pincushion by the time it was all over.
School of Ours
Every student, from pre-K through college, is somebody's baby. But how can a child in these halls maintain his/her faith these days? There are lives in the balance. We need to pray, stay close to the Lord, and hold out hope He'll change things for the better for America and for every man and woman in the world. With God, anything can happen.

Runnin' Down the Drain
Although safely inside the ark, Noah could've felt like a forgotten man in the cabin down below. How many more days till it would finally be time to move on to dry ground? Lesser men might have suffered a nervous breakdown, but Noah and the ark were both built to last. Then, one day, the flood's refugees saw that first flash of freedom.
I Don't Need to See Miracles
Some say seeing is believing, but Jesus taught Thomas you can't only base your faith on what your senses have taken in. Though Thomas was elated to see his Lord among the living, years later his martyrdom underscored how far he'd come. You don't need a wonder like walking on the water for something to believe in, but God still sends signs.

Signora Pilate's Dream
Pilate's wife was haunted by the dream she'd just had. Not wanting to be seen as talking out of turn, she sent him a message. Meanwhile, the crowd was watching and waiting for his decision. Should he listen to them or to the voice in his heart? The question made him a nervous and melancholy man. What would you do? Please think about it.
Second Corinthians
This world can't help falling in love with youthful vigor and beauty, but it ain't enough. As you age out of that, the outward decline seems so visible it's easy to miss what's going on inside your soul. Stop dancing with the mirror! You may not feel like a young man running, but you're still in a race, and God will always use every hurdle for His glory.

Released in late September, our 16th single of 2021 spoofs the highest-charting hits of two successful male artists from the 80's whom ApologetiX has never spoofed before. One is from America and the other is from England, and each was associated with a famous group before achieving solo-stardom.
Like Piranha Fish
The Apostle Paul warned the Galatians, “If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.” He wasn't talking about cannibalism, but backbiting (and frontbiting and sidebiting). So don't be cruel. As he said, “For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
To Wait for the Bride
Skeptics say you're wrong to believe that Jesus will return someday as He promised, because it's been such a long time since He left, but stick around. “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9).

Released in mid-September, our 15th single of 2021 spoofs Top 10 hits from the mid-80's by two American artists who never hit the Top 20 again. Neither song we spoofed made it the whole way to #1, but one hit #1 on the R&B chart and the other hit #1 on the adult contemporary chart.
Word Of
Is the Bible the word of man or the Word of God? Your answer to that question will have a profound impact on the way you look at life and live your life. Ironically, in these days of doubt, the Bible's assessment of mankind has never seemed more accurate and its prophecies about mankind's future have never seemed more feasible.
Psalm 19
In the final verse of Psalm 19, David makes this prayerful request: “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.” Is he asking God to approve what he just prayed or is he asking God to guide his future words and thoughts? Regardless, it's a great prayer we can all use.

Released in late August, our 14th single of 2021 spoofs a pair of songs that came out in 1986. Both were by groups from outside the United States, but both hit the U.S. Top 10, although one didn't do so until 1987.
Trumpet Sound
We all love an adventure, but don't go dancing until midnight if the world could be over tomorrow. Try to keep your eyes open for the signs of the times and your ears listening for the amazing sound of the trumpet described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 and 1 Corinthians 15:52. Don't get caught by surprise; you won't want to miss the after party.
Something of Value
As Adam could tell you, sin has a bad habit of running in the family. Just take a look at Romans 5:12. Man has been searching for the way back home ever since leaving Eden. The serpent was lying then, and he's lying still, even while working overtime. But God wants to be with you again forever now if you'll accept His grace and lessons in love.

Released in early August, our 13th single of 2021 spoofs two Top 10 hits from 1985, both by American artists. Although one artist is far more famous, the other actually had more Top 10 hits and Top 40 hits.
Sorry All the Time
Growing up, he attended church but never thought he'd be confused with a holy man. He fantasized about trading places with rock stars, not preachers. Yeah, but now he's living his life for Christ, making the best defense of the Gospel he can, using the raw talents God gave him. Imagine that! And he looks so happy doing it — how could it be?
Oppression
Demonic possession can cause strange behavior that'll even make skeptics tremble. If Christ is in you, they can't touch you that way, but they can cause out-of-control situations and anxiety, stealing time and joy from your life. Don't go staring down the demons without Jesus. Let Him go fight your battles, but make sure to put on your armor, too.

Released in late July, our 12th single of 2021 spoofs two Top 10 hits from the mid-80s by artists who each had a handful of hits. One is a group from England, and the other is a solo artist from America. The English artist had a #1 album in England, and the American artist had a #1 single in the United States with another group before embarking on his solo career.
He Hears Me
Yes, you've shown you're tough. That was then, but this is now. In deep despair on lonely nights, He knows just how you feel. But there are millions who often get nowhere, right on the target but wide of the mark. You know you're missing out on something. Well, that something depends on you remembering surrendering.
I Can Read About You
It hurts to be in love with the Word of God and keep the fire burning when so many skeptics are waiting to see you screw up. And if you do, they'll put it on instant replay just for fun for the world to see. But when you embrace the Bible, you hold a free ride to Heaven in your arms. Millions living in America are looking for a lighthouse. This is it.

Released in early July, our 11th single of 2021 spoofs two Top 10 hits from the mid-80s. One of the artists we spoofed had over a dozen Top 40 hits; the other had just one. Ironically, both artists had a song with the same title on their debut albums, although it's not the same song, but it did become the lesser-known artist's only hit.
Job's Counselors
As that old song goes, “into each life some rain must fall.” You can't change that. Bad things can happen even if you haven't been a bad boy or girl. It's our own affair, but sometimes a “friend" arrives and he or she still feels the need to find something we did in the past to cause it. The other woman or man may be sincere, but so were Job's friends.
Let's Show All the Way
If you have a desire to share the Gospel, God won't let you go too long on the merry-go-round of life without having opportunities to do so. But don't play with fire; learn the Bible and stay true to His Word. And if push comes to a shove, be prepared to stand up and say, “I still remember Jesus and believe everything He said.”

Arrogant Queen (No More Blood on the Throne)
The mystery lady in the title is Athaliah, the only female to rule over God's people in the Bible. She put her dream in motion suddenly by killing the male heirs to the throne. But when the going gets tough, the godly step up. Six years later, the high priest proved it's never too late to try. A showdown ensued, and it was time to move on for Athaliah.
If You Believe
There's a universal attempt to crush Christianity forever. They're so in love with the idea, they aren't speaking in secret but talking loud and clear. Yet others hold you up as a flame of hope while the lights are going out. Wouldn't it be good if you let them get to know you? They watch you do what you do. Please please please set a good example.

Change Your Tone
Everybody ignored Jeremiah, but he was nobody's fool. He tried to have heart-to-heart talks with his king and countrymen. This is it, he warned. Repent. Surrender. Don't fight it or start playing with the boys from Babylon. It's now or never. As it was then, so it is today: Heaven helps the man willing to take a leap of faith, but far too few are.
Two Spies
The Israelite spies who made death-defying headlines in Joshua 2 went straight into the lion's mouth, hiding within the walled city of Jericho. Ordinarily, you shouldn't do that, for fear of falling prey to hostile captors, but hang on now — they served an extraordinary God. Their faith was on a plane far above most of the spies in Numbers 13.

Released in late May, our eighth single of 2021 spoofs two 80's hits whose titles start with “Br” (and are different tenses of the same verb) by two artists whose names begin with “M" and end with “er.”
Great White Lie
It's puzzling why Abraham, a man of great faith, didn't open up and tell the naked truth about Sarah to Pharaoh and Abimelech. She was a girl worth fighting for, and he wouldn't have had to work so hard to avoid scandal. The argument could be made that he wasn't lying about her being his sister, but there's no doubt he wasn't entirely forthcoming.
Spoken Things
When raising kids, it's good to tell God, “I'll let you drive” and dedicate them to Him before they start learning to crawl. But is it love to just leave it at that as life goes on? We can pray that the Lord have mercy on them, but we have to walk the walk and talk the talk, teaching them that the Bible is something real, long before they go on to adulthood.

Released in mid-May, our seventh single of 2021 takes a #1 hit from the 80's and spoofs it twice, adapting it to suit two different environments.
Karma's Convenient
Many in Western culture today see someone “get what they deserve” in this life and mistakenly call it “karma.” However, the classic concept of karma teaches that you "get what you deserve” in a subsequent life through reincarnation. Hebrews 9:27 disagrees, but thinking they have extra time makes sluggards feel like they've got something real.
Come to Corinthians
The world's concept of love seems to be changing every day, but the Bible remains the same. That's the way to find out what love really is. Thankfully, First Corinthians 13 is still read at weddings, even in the church of the poison-minded pastor whose sermons are colored by numbness to the Gospel. It's a miracle they still read it, but they do.

Released in early May, our sixth single of 2021 spoofs two #1 hits from the mid-80's, both by artists whose names start with the letter P.
Where's Ten Girls?
It's a sin to waste absolutely fabulous opportunities to prepare for Christ's return and then ask, “What have I done to deserve this?” if you miss the Wedding Feast. Please! How can you expect to be taken seriously? Actually, that's the way life is for some very short-sighted people who are numb to what Jesus preached in Matthew 25:1-13.
Parrseverance
Persecution of Christians has plenty of precedent, and it's starting all over again, this time close to home. John was an apostle on par with Peter and Paul, a man with a vision and not a nutty guy. In Revelation 12:11 he explains the secrets of the success of those courageous enough to tell the king of lies, “Don't leave your mark on me.”

Released in mid-April, our fifth single of 2021 spoofs a pair of #1 hits from the first half of the 80's. Both were written and sung by guys named Michael — one as a first name and the other as a last name.
Amazing Acts
The first time the Apostles encountered the Holy Spirit, what a feeling that must have been! Despite the wonders they then performed, some folks talk like He's a dream or a figment of religious imagination. Not all believers experience automatic manifestations of miracles, but you won't have to go on a manhunt if you want to find those who have.
Train Them Up Before They Grow-Grow
Children are fantastic but grow up in a heartbeat. They need some freedom, but you can't give your kid everything he or she wants. You have a unique role in their lives — make it big, so you'll never have to wonder if you were there for them. Then you won't need Santa to tell you if they've been good or bad boys and girls since last Christmas.

Released in early April, our fourth single of 2021 spoofs two hits from 1984 — one from an American group and one from a British group. Interestingly, the American group's song hit #3 on the U.S. pop chart, and the British group's hit #3 on the U.K. pop chart. But both songs were big hits on both sides of the Atlantic.
Strive
What happens when society lets go of the truth and embraces lies? Will you have the courage to break away and say “I refuse”? Maybe baby, but that's a dangerous type of behavior when people scrutinize everything you say. Getting through the day without leading a double life is a real challenge. It's only through Christ we can pull it off.
Talk to Doctors
Some say God and science have nothing in common; don't listen to their lies. Medical miracles can happen when you have God's love on your side. Don't presume, but don't preclude — pray! The One who can stop the rain from falling and calm a storm on the sea is also the One keeps your heart beating and your lungs breathing day after day.

Released in mid-March, our third single of 2021 spoofs Top 10 hits by one of the biggest British solo artists of the 80's and one of the biggest American groups of the 70's.
Die Without His Grace
This may come as a shock to the system, but there is one thing Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials have in common: We're all sinners. What sets you free? Only God's grace through Christ. Do not stand in the shadows with your soul standing by. When there's nothing to lose and there's nothing to prove, it's a nice day to start again.
Eli's Callin'
Young Samuel was part of the family of a man named Elkanah, but his mama told him he was going to live and work in the house of the Lord. One night while in bed there, Samuel heard a voice call his name, so naturally, he went to Eli the priest and said, “I can hear you calling.” But a voice that's easy to be heard may be difficult to discern.

Downloads Available for a Donation
Released in early March, our second single of 2021 harkens back to 1967 and 1980. And it includes a bonus track that calls to mind memories of 1971 and 1979.
They Didn't Believe Her
Mary, Mary, quite contrary. While the Apostles stayed holed up in their headquarters, afraid to even look out the window, Ms. Magdalene was going down to the tomb. Consequently, she became the first person to see Jesus Christ after His resurrection, sometime in the morning that special Sunday. It was no time for teardrop city; it was time to laugh.
Humble Heart
Some are born to rule nations, some are born to run corporations, but it's hard to be a saint if you're sitting in the lap of luxury. When you're alone before God's throne and your glory days are over, all that Heaven will allow for you and any of the souls of the departed to bring along is the one Mediator between God and man — Christ Jesus.
BONUS TRACK: Greetings from PNC Park PA
Pittsburgh was a lucky town for baseball fans in the 70's; the Pirates reached the promised land twice. Since then, there's been a lot of darkness on the edge of town by the river Allegheny. And it doesn't look like it'll fade away any time soon. But that's the price you pay when you don't want to pay the price of free agency.

Released in late February, our first single of 2021 focuses on forgiveness, spoofing hits from 1972 and 1982 by two of the most popular American male recording artists of all time.
She Got Away
We don't know the name of the adulteress in John 8:3-11, but she's always a woman who comes to mind when discussing shameless hypocrisy, even two thousand years later. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. She knew she was a sinner. Jesus didn't have to tell her about it. Thanks to Him, she got to begin again.
Learning Love
It's hard to love others when they're not loving you. In fact, unless you surrender to Jesus, you can't help failing in love. It's too much, especially if you're dealing with a hard-headed woman or man. But don't be cruel; that's where your heartaches begin. Cast your burdens on Him. It might take some crying in the chapel, but that's all right.

Released in late November, our 19th single of 2020 spoofs an all-time classic from the Summer of Love.
All You Need Is Done
John 19:30 records these as Jesus' last words on the cross: "It is finished." In other words, mission accomplished! He wasn't just on a mission for Himself; He was on a mission to save everyone who will call upon His name (Romans 10:13). As Hebrews 10:12-14 goes on to say, "But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool. For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy."

Released in mid-October, our 18th single of 2020 spoofs two top 10 pop hits from the 1970's — one from '74 and one from '79.
Lonesome Leper
When you think of biblical lepers, you may have a Samaritan man on your mind. He's the most famous, so It's not a wonder. But do some reminiscing — we've done three songs about lepers, and he was the first under the wire. We thought it would be a cool change of pace to cover the other guy Jesus healed in Matthew 8, Mark 1, and Luke 5.
If You Don't Look at Numbers
The title of the Bible's fourth book is misleading. "I got enough math at my old school,” you say. "I don't want to do it again. You can't buy a thrill in a book like that. The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand. You think I'm a bookkeeper's son?” Actually, the book is about Israel's desert years before they entered their home at last.

Released in late September, our 17th single of 2020 spoofs a #5 pop hit from 1985 and a #1 mainstream-rock hit from 1996.
Thessalonians Letters
Paul's epistles to the Thessalonians could be his earliest (they're at least in the running), but they discuss the last days. Will you still be there when Jesus returns? If you know Him, never fear, never worry, never be sad. The future will take care of itself somehow. Don't be fooled by what you hear from skeptics. Wait for it, give it some time.
Rippin' Out a Whole Lot of Favorite Parts
Christianity's core beliefs are based on the Bible, which still remains the best-selling book of all time hands down (sources vary on what books are No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, etc.) though critics attack it like army ants. They call into question the wonderful things God said, echoing that wicked garden snake of old and leading others into sin with them.

Released in mid-September, our 16th single of 2020 spoofs the biggest hits of two more American bands we've never covered before — one from '69, and another from '77.
Sermon in a Love Song
Love is a mystery, and it takes time to stay together forever. Can't you see that a successful marriage won't happen without you doing your part 24 hours at a time? If you're always searching for a rainbow beyond the horizon, you may be in for a long, hard ride. Try treating your spouse like the dream lover in Solomon's shortest book.
Isaiah 9-1-2
Elijah is a more famous prophet than Isaiah, but he had so little to say in comparison. As we move farther along into the Old Testament, the picture of Messiah becomes more clear. He would be Jewish, but if you turn to the right verses, you'll see He would also be a light to the Gentiles. And this passage points an arrow straight to Galilee.

Released in early September, our 15th single of 2020 spoofs a couple of five-piece American bands we've never covered before, and both got their starts on the charts in 1993.
Mr. Don't
Some folks around here think humankind is on the verge of a new frontier, but one person's new age dawning is another person's daylight fading. We live in shallow days, so it's a good time to look before you leap, lest you find yourself accidentally in love with the wrong god or an unwitting friend of the devil. It happens time and time again.
Hey Philistines
When the Philistines captured the Ark of the Covenant, a curious thing happened to the statue of their god. Something real awful happened to them, too -- a new, miserable experience. They had to face the dark reality that they were fools for taking it. Read 1 Samuel 4-6 to see what they and the Israelites found out about using the Ark as a talisman.

Released in mid-August, our 14th single of 2020 spoofs two songs from opposite ends of the United States and the American Top 40. One song hit #1 for a West Coast band and the other hit #40 for an East Coast band. But that #40 hit also hit #1 on the rock charts.
God Speaks
Sometimes different people who claimed to be believers attempt to move on to what they think are greener pastures, treating God like He's their ex-girlfriend. They choose to believe a comforting lie that He doesn't exist, though underneath it all they know they're running from Him. But He still can be heard through His rock-steady Word.
Burly For You
Goliath approached with a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound. A veteran of the seismic wars between the Philistines and their foes, you could feel the thunder when he walked and talked. His career of evil was built on dominance and submission; others raised white flags lest he beat 'em up or kill them. Then along came a certain shepherd.

Released in early August, our 13th single of 2020 spoofs two very different female acts from the 90's to tell the stories of two biblical heroines from the Old Testament.
Celebrity Kin
Laban had two daughters. Leah may have been pretty on the inside and loaded with personality, but Rachel was Miss World and Malibu Barbie rolled into one. Yet that clouds the issue. Both sisters were forced to share a husband, who was tricked into the arrangement by their awful father. Nobody's daughter should have to live through this.
Miriam Girl
This is a story everybody knows. The song remembers when Moses was a baby in a basket on the Nile, as seen in another's eyes — his sister Miriam's — watching over him from the nearest distant shore. While trying to find a way to save her brother, she displayed a courage every girl can admire. And it's no fairytale; she was a real live woman.

Released in mid-July, our 12th single of 2020 spoofs a pair of four-piece rock bands who each had one big hit on Billboard's Hot 100.
If I Could Only See
Jesus gave us a mountain of evidence that He was the Messiah if you'll just open up your eyes. Do you know that He healed the blind at least three different times (Matthew 9:27-31, Mark 8:22-26, and John 9:1-38)? That should send a message to anybody who has their head on straight. But some thick-headed folks resolve not to look or see.
The Promised One
Life in the city of Jerusalem would never be the same after the stranger from Nazareth made His triumphant entry. People swarmed the streets to check it out, hearts full of joy. It's not like it's high fashion to ride into town on a donkey, but sometimes signs of change won't blow you away like the power of a jet or the bright lights of Hollywood.

Released in late-June, our 11th single of 2020 combats xenophobia by demonstrating that some Yankees and a Foreigner can work well together.
Coming with Age
Solomon had an I.Q. high enough to put all other wise men to shame, cementing his rad reputation as someone to believe in while he mystified the masses. He enjoyed runaway popularity, immeasurable riches, and a 15 minutes of fame that still hasn't expired 3000 years later. Yet he's best remembered for saying “all is vanity.” Come again?
Daniel's Visions
You can take the Book of Daniel and break it up into two sections: Chapters 1-6 show him growing up the hard way a long, long way from home; 7-12 show him living in a dream. Modern critics fight tooth and nail to discredit Daniel, as Darius' lowdown and dirty advisors did back then. Blinded by science, they refuse to believe in predictive prophecy.

Released in mid-June, our 10th single of 2020 features early hits from a pair of chart-topping bands — one from the United States in the 60's and the other from England in 80's.
Let's All Praise
The big world in which we live is scary right now. Turn up your radio; the words we use are strong. It's hard to hold back the tears. Others may start praying to a new god, and devoted friends may tell you to wake up and stop dreaming, but let's go ahead and praise the Lord anyway. Wait on Him and don't let go of your faith.
Straight On Through
People are estranged from God, going their own wishful, sinful way. Jesus could have chosen not to touch the Earth, but He had to do it to save us. You know that it would be untrue to say the Christian life's an easy ride, but if you keep your eyes on the road and take it as it comes, you'll absolutely live forever with Christ at the end.

Released in early June, our ninth single of 2020 features parodies of a pair of early-80's chartbusters — each sung by one of ApX lead singer J. Jackson's two oldest daughters, Janna and Heather.
Don't You Want the Baby
Elkanah married two wives: Peninnah had children, but Hannah had a houseful of nothing. Hannah was so hurt by Peninnah's taunts, it was hard not to keep feeling exasperation. But Hannah did dare to believe God could give her a son. After Samuel was born, she gave him back to God to serve Eli the priest, and God gave her more boys and girls.
Cleaned-Up Heart
David's sin was a well kept secret, but God sent Nathan to break it to him gently that he was heading for a heartache. Yes, it's a heartache when we're forced to face our sins, but it can be the sweetest thing for believers. It all depends on the angle of the mourning: Worldly sorrow brings death, but Godly sorrow brings repentance. Take heart!

Released in mid-March, our sixth single of 2020 spoofs two superstar acts of the 70's, although one of the songs is actually from the 80's.
Lamentations Song
Until Babylon sacked Jerusalem, the residents never thought it would ever go, but it only goes to show sometimes all of our thoughts are misleading. Some people cried and some people died and somebody (possibly Jeremiah) wrote the Book of Lamentations. It's awful doggone clear the pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath.

Hello, it's me, J. Jackson, from ApX again. My childhood gave me some sweet memories, but even then I saw a sinner when I went to the mirror. People thought I was pretty moral, but it wouldn't have made any difference without God's faithful saving grace. Thankfully, I saw the light when Jesus came to open my eyes and set me free.

Released in early March, our fifth single of 2020 has its roots in two chart-topping 60's bands. Both of them split up in 1970, with former members going on to have varying degrees of solo success. One song we spoofed here was a pre-split hit, the other was a solo smash.
All My Letters
The New Testament has 21 epistles. Paul wrote more than half of them (John is the only other author of more than two). Many of these words of love were written to specific churches/people, but they are all together now for believers here, there, and everywhere -- yesterday and today. No reply is necessary aside from a repentant heart.
Braggin' and Lyin'
Atheists hear the words of the Bible, shoot 'em down, turn around, and say there'll be peace and good and brotherhood if the Christians of the world get out now. But what would they say if they ever knew their utopian ideal was just a mirage? They love to talk about some kind of love, but without God, ultimately it's only love of self and "do unto me."

Released in late February, our fourth single of 2020 spoofs two Birmingham-based British bands. One of them had 20 U.S. Top 40 hits and the other had only one. But the one with only one had the only one that went to #1.
Mr. Uzziah
With a 52-year reign, Uzziah set a new world record for Jewish kings. It's over now, but much of that time was spent quarantined after he contracted leprosy from out of the blue during his showdown with God's priests. It was a painful discovery, but his sin was so serious he had to face the music from the One who rules all living things.
Come On I'll Lead
When Joshua took over from Moses, it was one of those things where there was no plan B. You can imagine him telling the Israelites, "Listen to this: I had to wander 40 years in the wilderness because of your fathers. I don't want to wait any more, please. Let's make this precious opportunity a reality now. Keep it moving. I'll show you the way."

Released in early February, our third single of 2020 spoofs two London-based bands -- one formed in the 60's that peaked in the 70's, and another formed in the 70's that peaked in the 80's. Each band had three Top 10 hits in the United States, with the first band having their last big hit two months before the other band had their first big hit.
Book of Life
One-world government? Antichrist? Armageddon? The news events of Revelation seem so far away to you and your friends. Why worry now? Well, even if kingdom come happens long after you're gone, where do you think you're going when you fade to black? You can't buy a ticket to Heaven yourself; you need Somebody Else to book your passage.
You Fleshly Thing
Emmanuel means "God with us," but some Christians in this changing world don't act like He's with them. Maybe you hear rumors of things they're doing; maybe their own words leave no doubt about it. Sure, everyone's a sinner, and you should give these a chance to get it right, but it may require a man-to-man talk. Sometimes it hurts to be a friend.

Released in mid-January, our second single of 2020 is brought to you by the letters A and B, although not necessarily in that order.
Bartholomew
You know the Apostles truly believed their hero was more than a miracle man the authorities had conspired to crucify. They were fearless in proclaiming the story of HIs resurrection and refused to let it die. Even when men like Bartholomew were skinned alive, they never recanted. The church Jesus founded was not going away.
Apologetics
We spent years flying around the country with a suitcase full of spoofs. Though we've gotten airplay on airwaves all over the world, we've never made a lot of money, but that's not the name of the game. No matter what people think about our parodies, we love the Bible, and we take it all seriously; we just don't take ourselves too seriously.

Released in early January, our first single of 2020 is a capital affair. Both are DC bands, even though neither came from or moved to Washington DC. In fact, neither one came from the United States. But you could call this our AC/DC5 single.
Glad It's Over
Some pretend it's not true, but everybody knows they're a sinner. Trouble is, too many like it like that. We run away and defy God to catch us if He can. You can live life any way you want it but you'll end up hurting inside because of it. But every prodigal who's ever come home thanks God over and over at the scene of the reunion.
Girl Got Religion
They see her as a holy roller now, but back in her school days, she saw herself as a problem child, breaking the rules, all screwed up and anything goes. God saw her as a damsel in distress, caught in the middle of a railroad track that ran through the badlands straight to sin city. With the flick of the switch, He saved her, just in the nick of time.

Released in mid-December, our 22nd single of 2019 spoofs two very different English artists. About the only thing they have in common aside from their country of origin is the fact that we'd never spoofed either one of them till now.
Stressin' Out
Having slaved night and day for many years, the Israelites finally exited Egypt's evil empire. But even after God made a path through the Red Sea, breaking it in two, they still had to face Pharaoh one more time. Was he really going after them? Why? Oh well, the king with a heart of ice went out in a blaze of glory, drowning in pride and the Red Sea tide.
Flew Off The Handle
Once Elisha took up Elijah's mantle, it was on with the action. His many miracles made him quite a phenomenon. The writer of Second Kings portrays him as a man with sympathy when making contact with covenant keepers who had hit rock bottom, but something else when pushed to the limit by the arrogant and unrepentant. Oh my.

Released in early December, our 21st single of 2019 is an all-English affair from the 70's and the 90's.
Temple Physician
Strangers came to Jesus looking for an answer, trying to find a sign. They'd heard whispers of a medicine man from Galilee with healing hands, but they missed the big picture. Once His talk turned to sacrifice, many of the Jesus freaks out in the streets of Jerusalem found it easier to walk away than to follow.
The Ballad of Peter Plungin' Ahead
Simon Peter probably felt ten feet tall as he walked on water; that's a super-tough thing to do. Imagine the disappointed look on his face moments later when he remembered he was merely a man, and all of a sudden he started to sink. Go to John 21:7 and Matthew 16:13-20 to read about other times he took the plunge for Jesus' sake.

Released in mid-November, our 20th single of 2019 is brought to you by the letters Y and Z. It spoofs a couple of overseas artists, with parodies of songs that first hit the American airwaves in '72 and '82.
You Can Be Free Now
Peter's prison break in Acts 12 wasn't the crazy cinematic kind with explosives or tunnels down underground. That's overkill when God is sending an angel to release you. He'd done it before, in Acts 5, so it probably seemed like business as usual to Peter. It's a mistake to assume that'll happen every time, but the truth will set you free.
Zekie's Startup
Was Ezekiel an earthling visited by low-flying UFOs on some fantastic voyage across the universe? What in the world was it he saw?
Despite certain folks loving the alien theory, the reality is those four-faced creatures that looked like scary monsters were angelic beings. Let's not dance around the truth; the outside world thinks we're kooks either way.

Released in late-October, our 19th single of 2019 is a classic '78 model that runs on fossil fuel.
You're All Like Troglodytes
Certain scientists and museum directors with high, shaking heads keep on knocking the Bible's account of man's origin. Let them show what they want; their "proof" is built to spec and built on speculation. How far can you take it before you realize it's only fabricated from fragments of dubious designation? They don't care where/what it came from, as long as it was deep. It's not the first time they've made a move like this.
Trilobite Love
Trilobites and dinosaurs are evidence for extinction (which we still see today), not evolution (which we don't). Atheists hope that if they make the history of the cosmos drag on forever, they'll gain enough time for evolution to occur. Going round and round, they couldn't find evidence on earth, and it was hard, so hard, to take. So they look to aliens for answers, one hand on the ground, one hand in space, all mixed up.

Released in mid-October, our 18th single of 2019 spoofs rock classics from 1967 and 1970, originally performed by two guitar-driven American acts -- one from the Northeast and the other from the Northwest.
Xerxes' Song
King Xerxes ruled over a man's world, and Queen Vashti looked so fine, but she hurt his pride and passion, so he sent her away without even one last, cold kiss. Though Esther took no satisfaction in social climbing, you can't get away from destiny. But this song's mainly about Vashti, from Xerxes' perspective, suitable for the king's chorale.
Let Me Sit Next to Messiah
Remember James and John, the Sons of Thunder? They had one rainy wish after they'd come in from the storm: to be Jesus' right-and-left-hand men once He came into power. Subtle as machine guns, they went straight ahead and asked. His response forced their dreams to make a crash landing into their castles made of sand.

Released in late-September, our 17th single of 2019 spoofs a mid-70's rock classic that had no guitars and a mid-90's rock classic that had no drums. But that didn't stop the former from hitting #3 on the pop charts or the latter from hitting #1 on the modern-rock charts (and #28 on the pop charts).
Some Signs and Wonders Follow
Jesus' disciples had their share of ups and downs and bad times as they went into all the world (and when they stayed closer to home) to talk to the people, but God did miraculous good things to testify that His favor was shining on them. We're not in need of a time machine to see that; many of those moments were caught in the Acts of the Apostles.
Get Serene
So many of us inner-peace-seekers are swallowed up by anxiety and distracted by little things, distant voices, even the people that we love — bodies in motion constantly like the house is on fire. Meditation isn't everything Zen Buddhism claims, but Jesus would often slip away by Himself to pray, then come down from the mountain refreshed. Be still, my love!

Released in mid-September, our 16th single of 2019 spoofs a pair rock bands not known for having many hit singles. Coincidentally, each band's biggest single hit the Top 5 and each band's second-biggest single went to #15 exactly. But one of those bands also had seven albums go to #1.
Back Talk
It's been a long time since the Pentateuch, but ancient manuscripts confirm there's been a trouble-free transmission since then. They carry news that must get through, things you really ought to know, but people turned away. Then as it was, then again it will be. It's a total disgrace. We ain't disclosing no names, but it really makes life a drag.
Bethany
We all have a fascination with miracle stories, and they don't write 'em in the Bible unless they're true confessions, but seeing is believing, as Martha could testify. When Jesus said to open Lazarus' tomb, she was the girl most likely to worry about the smell after how long he'd been dead. Lucky for her, Jesus was unfazed, and the family was reunited.

Released in mid-August, our 14th single of 2019 spoofs rock hits from two singer-songwriters who grew up in America's heartland, although one of them had to move to the Southeast to make it big.
A Foolhardy Song
The Bible advocates avoiding arguments with fools, but sometimes a great notion is hard to live out in our weakest moments. Now more than ever, Christians are an easy target; we are the people they think are the crazy ones. When they say mean things, it hurts, so good people may lose their cool. The kid inside of you wants to fight back. Can you take it?
Good Trend
Israel's life in the wilderness wasn't easy or 100% fun. Neither is the Christian life, no matter how cool we say it is. The ugly truth is we're the same as they in doubting sometimes, but God provides food to all living things on Earth, whether we notice His divine intervention or not. He gave us our daily bread today, and He'll do it again tomorrow.

James
In modern times, we see Jesus' half-brother James as a man of faith, but when Jesus first walked the earth, James had his doubts. All of Jesus' siblings treated Him just the same as the rest of the family, despite His miracles and runaway popularity. But later on, after He'd come to life again, they'd have an awakening and see the light.
Quite a God
No matter how much we're paid for work that we do while we're doing time on earth, our true source of sustenance is the same in the end. If you put your hope in God, He'll make sure you'll have all you need. If you take the wrong way and reject Him, get ready for consequences, whether it be the pawn shop, the poorhouse, the jailhouse, or worse.

It's so tough here today for teens to find true friends when they're busy doing nothing but surfing the net for social-media connections.

That's where you want to go to get away from it all. Come go with me.
Don't You Be Like That
Canaan offered the best of everything, but God made hard promises to Israel so they'd know beyond a shadow of a doubt what He'd do if they had a change of heart and copied the Canaanites. Unfortunately, the rebels among them didn't scare easy. Now it's wake-up time again. Don't waver between two worlds; playing dumb isn't good enough.

Great Tongues of Fire
Acts 2 says tongues of fire and the sound of a mighty wind let the Apostles know the Holy Spirit had come on in. Those telltale signs left them breathless, but not speechless. Acts 4 is another place another time when the Spirit came once more with feeling (there was a whole lot of shaking going on). Does He have an invitation to your party?
I Want a New Covenant
Israel broke God's covenant, but it's all right. In Jeremiah 31:31, He announced Plan B for Jacob's latter-day descendants. It involved a change of heart -- not God's heart, but man's. In HIs foreknowledge, He'd always known we'd all fall short of loving Him with all of our heart and soul. But He had a perfect solution for this imperfect world.

Released in early June, our 10th single of 2019 spoofs pop and rock hits from 1974.
Something from Nothing
The Bible says God made everything, even the seemingly limitless reaches of outer space. It was a whole new thing; that's the way God planned it. Get into an argument with an atheist about it, though, and it will go around in circles. But if they take time to figure it out and get back to the beginning, they'll realize something had to start it all.
That's Unbelief
Peter seemed rock steady before the Last Supper; Judas did not. Take the time to read John 12:6 and you'll see Judas used to steal from the silver, loot, and gold in the money box. Was he a bad man or just a case of good living gone bad? Either way, he found fame and fortune in the worst way possible and wound up abandoned and alone.

Released in late May, our ninth single of 2019 spoofs Hagar/Seger with greater vigor than a major leaguer.
Isaiah 55
Sometimes we have high hopes and dreams we want fulfilled right now but God gives us a red light. "Don't make me wait," we cry. But Father knows best. Don't fight it; He may be keeping you out of a danger zone. Remember the heroes of the Old Testament who waited on Him. What they wouldn't give to live a life like ours, knowing Jesus personally.
Still His Name
Exodus 20:7 gives us an understanding why we should be trying to live a life without using the Lord's name in vain. Even now, we've got two nice New Testament reminders of the holiness of His name in Matt. 6:9 and Luke 11:12. It's the only name that saves men from the fiery lake in the famous final scene. But some men go just where they want.

Released in early May, our eighth single of 2019 spoofs Top 10 hits from 1968 and 1971, each by artists out of Los Angeles CA.
Midlife Confession
So you believe Jesus is Lord? Sooner or later you gotta come on and say it. Heaven knows how you feel, but does anybody else? Why wait a million years to get it out in the open? Nobody expects you to go walking through the country with a big cross, but don't waste this precious time and end up lamenting things you should have said.
Do You Know What I Dreamed?
Nebuchadnezzar wanted his wizards to interpret his dream but told them no part of it. Why make it so hard? In his own special way, he figured if they couldn't gain basic knowledge of the details supernaturally, they couldn't gain the meaning, either. It looked like he had them over a barrel till Daniel gave a perfect recital and explanation.

Released in mid-April, our seventh single of 2019 spoofs hits from each end of the 90's -- both by five-piece, American, alt-rock bands.
Even Though
Treat others with deference, not indifference. Yield to God's will, not your own. Verses like Philippians 2:3-8 show that Christ humbled Himself, even enduring whipping and crucifixion under Pilate, to save you when you were oceans apart. Mind your manners and don't forget who you are -- a glorified grace-receiver, saved by His blood.
Seven Romans
When we come to Jesus, He points us in a new direction. There's glory waiting in Heaven when it's over, but till then, there are some days when it all falls apart. Anyone reading Romans 7 for the first time will be floored by what Paul writes about his own struggles. He made it and so can we, but we have to learn to walk before we can fly.

Released in late March, our sixth single of 2019 spoofs two artists who had #1 albums in the 1970's. Ironically, neither one's biggest-selling album (and that's where these songs came from) hit #1, even though each sold over three times as many units as the chart-toppers.
Romans 1:20
Atheists openly mock God these days. Among the human beings, in their designer genes, they look at life with such disregard for every man who disagrees. They don't hold out much hope for the Bible; they want to pack it up and tear it down and say it isn't true. Yet they stay loyal to their own experts, despite their ever-changing assessments.
Broke a Loaf of Bread
As Easter approaches, you won't see a passion play without Judas' betrayal or Peter's denial. Ever find yourself wondering aloud why God let epic fails like that wind up in the Bible? This was for our benefit. They show it's the truth, not a Mother Goose fairy tale. And they demonstrate HIs grace through the one infallible teacher, His Son.

Released in mid-March, our fifth single of 2019 spoofs two big hits from the mid-70's by two big hitters of that era.
Mephibosheth
Some princes just can't wait to be king, but Saul's son Jonathan wasn't chasing the crown. Best friends with David, he had a good heart and small ego but died too young, same day as Saul. To add to this hard-luck story, his young son was dropped that day and lost the power to walk. But David made sure he wouldn't have to go it alone.
Go Home with the Prodigal Son
Leaving home, out on the road at last, the prodigal felt like a lucky man on the threshold of the Hollywood dream. Then money and food ran out, shattering his perfect world. He wound up feeding pigs behind the barn. He'd been working so hard, but it just kept getting tougher every day; he couldn't wait to give it up and get on home.

Released in late-February, our fourth single of 2019 features two American groups whose lead singers were both born in Washington State. Their birthdates were 16 years apart, but their musical styles were light years apart.
Your Money Don't Last
Thinking of your financial future? In Heaven, everything will be free. Even here on earth, money can't buy peace of mind. Whether you're strugglin' till the ends meet or your bank account's growin', don't keep it sittin' in a vault. If we're saving our money for only ourselves, we're wasting our time, and you never can tell when your time will be up.
Birdie in Thy Hand
Remember the question Jesus Christ posed in Luke 12: "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life?" Whether or not birds head down south to avoid an unkind winter, they always find food somewhere, and they'd have zero chance without God's help. But pay no attention to boo birds; He's not a crutch or kickstand, He's our rock.

Back in the Battle
Ephesians 6:12 helps us draw the line between human conflict and the ultimate sources behind it. When push comes to shove, we're not fighting flesh and blood but powerful fallen angels from the other side. Love the dude, hate the demons. What it takes to fight 'em is the amazing armor of God. Get a grip on that and you'll be fine.
Bold as Christ
When ancient Christian men and women neared the Colosseum and heard the roar of the crowd, it reminded them of the cost of serving Christ. But their reaction to actions taken against them won many souls. That was yesterday, yet we still find ourselves at war with the world in the modern day. Are you worried what your friends see?

Released in early-February, our second single of 2019 spoofs two bands with x's in their name like us -- one from the 70's and one from the 80's.
Full of Yourself (Distinguished Young Man)
"The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone." David wrote that 1000 years before a man in the wilderness named John began preparing the way for a man of miracles named Jesus. In today's culture of "I'm OK, you're OK," everything is cool but Jesus. It's high time they learned they're missing the best thing life has to offer.
(Check Out) The Book
This world is fading like a flower, but the Word of the Lord endures forever. Some try to paint it in a bad light as a dangerous book, and they tell lies about it. Chances are you've heard them, but if you read it with an open mind and listen to your heart, you'll know beyond a shadow of a doubt it's the truth, and things will never be the same.

Released in mid-January, our first single of 2019 spoofs two British bands who each had multiple members achieve considerable success after they broke up.
A Day in the Loaf
It looked like the crowd would starve, till there was a youth willing to share. He was only one in 5000, but this boy was unique; he actually brought food. Moral of the story: Even if many people come together for a last-minute meal, fixing a whole bunch of food isn't a problem with Jesus. All you need is loaves. Some fish would help, too. Dig it?
Stay Deceased
If you see Jehovah's Witnesses while looking out the window, your first step should be to pray. Don't treat them bad and ruin an opportunity. How will they know love lives here if you're so rude? Ask God to make them open to ideas you present. You may be quite amazed. We wrote this song to help you when they talk about the afterlife.

Released in late-December, our 23rd single of 2018 features parodies of two songs from the mid-70's done by rock quintets formed in England, although each often featured American members.
Eve Looks Back
Eve may not have been a sentimental lady, but she could never forget Eden, though she was never going back again. Then the tragedy with Cain and Abel. What was the world turning into? But like Abraham's wife, Sarah, she could cling to a promise made about a beautiful child she'd bear, even if specifics weren't crystal clear at the time.
Jewish Farm
Jesus told stories the average person could relate to. Each had an underlying message, but only some would get it. Like this one about a sower in the heart of the country with crops coming up like flowers in the dirt. Elsewhere we learn there's a big barn ready to hold the harvest and reapers who'll take it away on another day yet to be revealed.

Released in mid-December, our 22nd single of 2018 features parodies of a one-hit wonder and #1-hit Wonder:
The Wonder of Christmas
As we celebrate Christ's first advent, it's important to remember He'll eventually come back down to earth for a big finale, even though it seems so long since last time. It won't be as a baby, and if you really love Him you won't need another star to ascertain His whereabouts. Don't you worry about a thing; you will know. He'll make sure you're sure.
Once We're Over the Line
Joseph's wife, Mary, was a small-town girl, but her son was no natural child. In the midst of an incredible state of affairs, an angel told Joseph to rise up and take the old road down to Egypt, where they could all have a good life in hiding. Herod was bound to fall eventually, and once he did, they could make like a boomerang and return.

Released in early-December, our 21st single of 2018 features two bands out of Los Angeles County, California, although they don't have much common ground aside from that.
Marry Mary
Jesus' foster father, Joseph, could never be called a man without a dream; he had several angelic visitations in the dream world. The first was after he found out his fiancée was pregnant. The angel told him not to forget that girl but to take a giant step of faith, even if it was hard to believe she was still a virgin, and he trusted the angel's words.
Turn Up the Ray of Hope
This crazy world seeks the thrill of love without realizing that faith and hope are the other missing pieces in a three-piece setting. As 1 Peter 3:15 shows, when others see hope in us, that's the stuff that'll prompt them to ask questions about our faith. Our attitudes and actions speak louder than words. Let's use them to create a buzz for Him.

Taken Up
You don't need magic to make someone disappear; just ask Enoch and Eljiah. Well, they can't answer right now, since they're gone, but we won't let them leave you up in the air. They left the scene without a trace. Take another look at 2 Kings 2:11, Genesis 5:24, and 1 Thess. 4:17. Who says there's no escape without a scrape?
Take the Wrong Way Home
If you bring up the Bible in casual conversations at school or work, it might end up being famous last words. Watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, a dreamer hoping it's going to come true, or a crazy person in need of an asylum. If only they'd give a little bit of thought to their final destination before it's too late.

Call Me the Priest
Aaron's first 80 years were nothing fancy, with not many things going on, so he was free as a bird when God called. He wasn't on the hunt for a new job or searching for fame, but he'd soon be the envy of every mother's son in Israel -- the first, not the last, of a dying breed of high priests. But therein lay the problem.
A Loan for You
He was deep enough in debt to the king that it would take a century to pay it off, maybe 10,000 years. In fact, forever may not be long enough. Yet the king forgave it all. The debtor, however, forgot that sweet release when he met a man who owed him. Consider your debts when you eye a loan someone owes you, OK? If you won't, God will.

She's Not Dead
Acts 9 -- Paul's faith odyssey may begin here, but Peter wasn't finished speaking the oracles of God. In the same chapter, he resurrected a woman named Tabitha (a.k.a. Dorcas). She seemed just out of reach, beyond the borderline of Heaven's gate, but she was the kind of girl the whole church loved, so how could Peter tell her no?
Read Isaiah
Isaiah predicted many details of Christ's life, 700 years ahead of time, but the train kept a-rollin' till they were fulfilled. Prophets often looked far west of tomorrow when they said things were gonna change sometime in the future. Skeptics go round and round to make Isaiah their boogie man, but don't call us crazy if we take him at his word.

That's Saul
In the beginning of the ballad of big Saul and little David, the Israelites were counting out time between Goliath's taunts, to which they had no reply at all. Yet after the ordeal was over, Saul wasn't happy the man who felled the giant got all the glory. He started taking it all too hard, and soon David was down and out, in hiding in the wilderness.
Busted God's Laws
Moses went to get God's laws in the usual place they met, but 40 days was too long for the Israelites to wait without things getting out of hand. Still, in his worst nightmares, Moses didn't expect to come back and find them giving it all up for a golden calf. It put a rage in the sage, and the ensuing wreckage included both calf and Commandments.

Released in late September, our 16th single of 2018 spoofs two bands that only go by initials, and both are abbreviations for scientific terms.
It's a Long Way to the Dock (If You Wanna Stop in Rome)
Young Saul of Tarsus had a heart and head as hard as a rock, and he had a hard life after Christ transformed him into the Apostle Paul. It ain't no fun facing the danger and rough stuff he endured, but Paul kept a stiff upper lip, taking everything in his stride like there was nothing he'd rather do. He was one of a kind but wanted no applause.
Everybody Burps
Before you murmur against others for doing things you can't stand that drive you crazy time after time, consider this: What's the frequency of your own sin? We'll all face a day of reckoning at the end of the world as we know it. You may not feel like a monster, but we all stumble in many ways and need to repent before we run out of time.

Released in early September, our 15th single of 2018 spoofs a pair of chart-toppin', hard-rockin' hits from the early 70's.
Embarrassing Moments
It's not like Peter had no time to prepare; Jesus gave him fair warning. He remembered laughing to himself at the notion he wouldn't stand tall when they came for Jesus. But he wasn't a one-man army. Now he was shaking all over, posing as a proper stranger. His promises were broken, his faith was undone, and he wanted to lie down and die.
Soakin' in the Lord's Book
Yeah, that's fine if you bring any other book to school, but you know better than to get caught with a Bible by your side. At best, the school punks will treat you like a Martian. At worst, you'll be wanted dead or alive by the authorities. Or maybe you'll be the one that got away with it. But God's Word is the truth, take it (to school) or leave it (at home).

Released in late August, our 14th single of 2018 spoofs Top 10 hits from the 80's by a pair of American rock bands that originated in the Northeast (although one of those bands had to move to L.A. before it finally found fame).
The War in You
In spiritual warfare, there are many battles. You win some and lose some. Even if you feel you've won less than half, ultimate victory was assured when you came to Christ and said goodbye to your old life. Give it time and call to Heaven for help. It may feel like the enemy has your hands tied, but you march to the beat of a heart filled with Christ.
Bad Things for a Good Time
Satan likes to play dirty. He'll tell you it's bad to be good, but once you're in the valley of lost souls, he'll crack a smile and blame it on you. He hates life, loves a tragedy, and can't stand believers. He's a fallen angel himself, after all. Only God can supply the good love you need to start tearing down the walls and lose that ball and chain.

Released in early August, our 13th single of 2018 spoofs a pair of Top 10 hits from July 1983 by long-established rock bands not known for having much crossover success on the pop charts.
She's Got Cooties
"I'm just a mess," she thought. "There's no way out; I don't want to wait anymore." She touched Christ's cloak and was instantly cured. He could feel it, but instead of saying, "Don't touch me," there was compassion in His eyes when He turned around and saw her standing there. His love's a mystery that can heal us outside and inside.
Dumb Questions
Jesus was a well-respected man with dedicated followers, but the religious elite didn't fancy this wonderboy and his band of misfits making permanent waves wherever they went. So they tested Him with questions all day and all of the night. Unable to defeat Him by debating face to face, they went behind his back to get revenge.

Released in mid-July, our 12th single of 2018 has an English accent, because both bands we borrowed from are British.
Bad Foreign Girls
Matthew's genealogy of Jesus starts with Abraham, then lists subsequent generations from father to son, but also includes some women guaranteed to blow your mind because of scandal, innuendo, big disgraces and bad mistakes. Yet they're all part of one vision made in Heaven that some day one day would lead to the Miracle in the manger.
Campaign to Jehovah
They knock on doors all around the world, saying you can live forever in paradise on earth. Some might say they're led astray, but they don't look back in anger at failed prophecies. They just roll with it and soldier on as memories fade away and the master plan changes little by little. What's the story? Where did it all go wrong? They think it's getting better.

Released in early July, our 11th single of 2018 revisits two songs we originally spoofed back in the 1990's – one with all-new lyrics and an all-new title (but the same theme) and another with the same lyrics and a totally different musical approach.
The Very Last City
Heaven's a place where everything is as fresh as the bright blue sky, but some would rather live right next door to Hell. Thankfully, God has extraordinary patience and still offers the chance to move to the city described in Revelation 21-22. We hope you'll take it eventually. Start knocking on Heaven's door now; don't wait till you're dust and bones.
L.S.F.
After Jesus ascended like some high-flying bird, His disciples stood gazing at the now-empty sky, but they'd soon make the greatest discovery; two angels told them Jesus would come down in time. Sixty years on, when John wrote Revelation, the clock was still ticking. But the One who brought salvation will return, and blessed are those who believe.

Released in mid-June, our 10th single of 2018 looks at resurrection in the Old and New Testament, with spoofs of #1 hits from the 70's and 80's.
Some Doubt
Jesus is gone, but the legend lives on; that's what skeptics would have you believe. Was He an ordinary man who left His small circle of followers high and dry, picking up the pieces of a sweet shattered dream? Too many clues in this room suggest otherwise. Take it or leave it or try to believe it, but it's worth believing and not too late for praying.
(I Just) Died and Arose
We don't see many Old Testament resurrections except for a scattering of incidents in 1 and 2 Kings. Here's one for the medical books: a live broadcast from a previously dead boy in 2 Kings 4. He'd been alive before but had already gone to his apparent death. Then Elisha told him to get up and get over it, and he came back like a boomerang.

Released in early May, our ninth single of 2018 spoofs bands from London and the Land of Lincoln.
Can't Fight This Kneeling
The world wants to live it up; they don't want to know what the Bible says. If you keep pushing, they won't keep on loving you. They might just throw you through the window if you don't drop it. But that ain't love. Pray for opportunities to share the Gospel, and when you get what you pray for, don't be afraid to stand up and say something.
Crossloads
Jesus was in a world of pain on the way to Golgotha. Those were the days when Romans ruled, so they forced Simon of Cyrene to carry the cross. As he gingerly picked it up, perhaps he thought, "What a bringdown! There are better ways of passing the time." But he wound up exemplifying Christ's words in Mark 8:34. Feel free to read it yourself.

Released in mid-April, our eighth single of 2018 could be summed up as "good wives, bad wives, 70's style."
No More Mr. Wise Guy
Solomon was caught in a dream that warped into a nightmare. Beautiful babes, billion-dollar budget, and freedom to do what he wanted didn't make happiness a gimme. If you look at it from the inside, all those wives and concubines were only women of mass distraction; he reaped a field of regret reflected upon in the book of Ecclesiastes.
You're Really Godly
God made many beautiful girls, but when push comes to shove, looks are not enough. Proverbs 6:23-7:27 gives fair warning about girls gone bad; Proverbs 31:10-31 balances that with the secrets of the godly woman. Worldly women fall out of love again, but a godly wife can't stop loving you, because she committed to Him before committing to you.

Released in early April, our seventh single of 2018 spoofs big hits by two famous English-American bands.
The Jews' Lost Hero
They come from two different worlds, but Christians and Jews have one thing in common that we both share: belief in Messiah. The four Gospels make a compelling case for Jesus fulfilling Jewish prophecy, but bringing it up can generate unusual heat; no time ever seems right. Do what you like, but God still loves the lonely children of Israel.
Handle with Prayer
After Jesus calmed the storm on the Sea of Galilee, the disciples found a cool, dry place to land. But they were not alone anymore; two wild men met them, and not to offer congratulations. The devil had been busy destroying their lives, but Jesus wasn't rattled by the frantic demons. He knew it was the end of the line for them, and so did they.

Released in early March, our sixth single of 2018 spoofs the signature songs of two bands we've never parodied before. Both bands could boast of bassists who doubled as their lead singers.
Place of Grace
You may be fastidious about religion, but Isaiah 64:6 says our righteous deeds are like filthy rags. Sadly, many seem deaf forever to those words, hammered hard by iron-fisted religious rulers who lead them like lemmings, telling them to get back in line and march or die. Jesus offers rest for the restless, but the graceless get no sleep at all.
Nabal Was a Mean Guy
David's the star of First Samuel, but chapter 25 zeroes in on a relatively anonymous guy named Nabal. Only a few remember him, and it is because he was a perpetual drag who preferred gluttony to charity, which he considered a real waste of food. He was married to a beautiful girl named Abigail, who later became David's wife.

Going to Forget Our Bad Deeds
Jeremiah is a long book, so you may not remember all the things he said, but once upon a time, in verse 31:34, He promised you a miracle: God will forget our sins! You don't have to sanctify yourself; Christ will do it. That's good news from the next world, but you can claim this glittering prize while you're still alive and kicking (Heb. 8:12, 10:17).
Selfish Sheep
Moses was pretty spry for a white-haired guy, but the Israelites' bad habit of complaining surely made him feel so alone and weary. We defy you to find someone in ministry who hasn't hit that point sometime. But if you're called to ministry, you're not the one responsible for what happened to you, and the One who is will refresh you as days go by.

They just finished with your neighbors and plan to visit every house all down the line, so they won't miss you. Grrr! Can't you hear 'em knocking? We can almost hear you sigh. Come on! You are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Shine a light on them! This song could help you sway them away from their biggest mistake.
An Old King in the New Age
Submission to a king? These days, that seems like a rotten idea to just about everybody, never mind the Bolsheviks. But what if that king didn't have a vicious bone in His body, did you no wrong, could solve all of the world's problems, and had the power to raise our bodies from the dead? Would something else make you object?

Released in late-January, our third single of 2018 spoofs two British trendsetters who shaped the 60's, the 70's, and beyond.
Babel Babel
Genesis shows the rise and fall of a ziggurat in Babel, Revelation shows that we never learned. It's not some future legend; unlike Orwell's 1984, it will become reality. Modern man seeks peace on Earth and life on Mars. It's hunky dory for the heathen, but Christians are out of fashion. Who knows what changes may occur in the next five years?
Can't Buy Free Love
There's a place in Acts 8 that recounts a day in the life of Simon Magus, a magical-mystery doer who later became known as the "father of all heretics." Peter rebuked him for trying to "buy the gift of God with money" and warned him not to let the devil in his heart, but apparently Simon wouldn't let it be and never found the real love of Christ.

Head Over Here
Some advice for the young at heart: The good old days aren't always in the past. Listen, Moses was 80, living a humdrum and humble life, but a big change came the day he saw the burning bush, sowing the seeds of Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, not to mention the rest of Exodus. Everybody loves a happy ending, especially God.
You Gotta Go
Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven, but Hell is too hot a topic for "the real world." You learn fast that talking about it gets you uninvited to most parties. Don't expect a thank you. They may not feel your love, might walk away, look right through you, or stand with their hands in their pockets, but the only way out is Jesus. And now is the time.

Ignorant Song
Atheists ramble on about a God they say doesn't exist, swearing and tearing into those who try to keep His Word from being trampled underfoot. But whether 14:1 or 53:1, the Psalm remains the same: The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." To bring it all home, your time is gonna come. If you don't believe now, you will in your time of dying.
Grass So Green
Other lives seem wonderful when you creep on social media, but those plush pix could be transmissions from a lonely room in a big empty house with no way out. Why is the grass always greener on the other side? At the core, C.S. Lewis said, "The fact that our heart yearns for something Earth can't supply is proof that Heaven must be our home."

Bible O'Really
The Word of God is pure and easy to understand, but it's not enough for some "Christians," who bargain over what parts should be discarded and what fragments should be kept. They are all in love with the idea of faith in something bigger, but their God gets smaller as their Bible gets smaller. Either it's all true, or it's not true. Accept no substitute.
On the Road, Away from Home
You've heard the parable of the Good Samaritan, but it's about time we retold it for today: A Pittsburgh Steelers fan on the road driving back home again breaks down on a rocky mountain highway in West Virginia and has to spend some time on the shoulder. Then he sees a Cleveland Browns fan looking for space to pull over ...

Released in late November, our 21st single of 2017 features parodies of American-made hits from the mid-70's and mid-90's.
Straight Street
Here's Ananias looking back on Acts 9, when the Lord told him to go pray for a stranger in town named Saul. His heart sank like a rock; he feared Saul was still the same guy persecuting Christians in Acts 8. When you turn the page, the distance between 8 and 9 may feel like a number far greater than one. But One was far greater than Saul.
Casket Place
Is Earth headed for a 21st century breakdown? After waiting so long for Christ's return, enduring countless failed predictions (by men, not God), many get jaded or suffer burnout. The Bible takes the long view but gives warning signs so we'll know when it's time in the end. Others will know either when they come around or when He comes around.

Released in early November, our 20th single of 2017 features parodies of two bands from the British Invasion. Although one of the songs we spoofed was a hit in the 60's, the other didn't come out till the 80's. Both parodies were recorded in October 2017. The first was recorded in the studio by ApologetiX, while the second was recorded live by J. and Jimmy from ApologetiX with the New Community Church worship team.
Paranormal
It's a predictable predicament, a classic bait and switch. At first, spirit guides give the people what they want, but promises of better things turn into definite maybes, then a state of confusion, and finally misery. You thought you were getting cheerful spirits, but you really got mean demons. Sadly, some people have to learn the hard way.
Maybe Madonna
As the old song says, Jesus died for all the children of the world. That means every bad boy and girl, too, for no one is righteous. The Word says He forgave the Samaritan woman, the taxman, and the woman caught in adultery, in spite of all the danger to His public image. Why would you think it's all too much for Him to save (insert name here)?

Released in late October, our 19th single of 2017 is the latest installment in our Churchigo series. ApologetiX lead singer and lyricist J. Jackson is also a worship leader at New Community Church in Wexford PA, the same place where we played our 20th and 25th anniversary shows. NCC has a great worship team with many talented vocalists and instrumentalists, many of whom have appeared on ApologetiX recordings.
We've released songs before that J. has performed with the team in concert on our Churchigo II, Transformed Soul, and Churchigo III projects. On October 8, 2017, the worship team performed a special concert with the choir and an 11-piece band, including a full brass section. J. sang lead on two new parodies of songs by Chicago and Blood, Sweat & Tears that he wrote specifically for the event. ApX drummer Jimmy "Vegas" Tanner also played on the songs.
This time around, ApX guitarist Wayne Bartley was able to remix the live recordings of the performances to maximize the audio quality, and we're making them available as downloads, which are free with your donation of any size to the ministry of ApologetiX.

You Made Me, So There You Have Me
Ah, that moment when you go from knowing there's something going on (sin in your life) to realizing there's something coming on (a desire to repent)! As John the Baptist could tell you, redemption requires repentance, but God is Father to the man who's saved by the grace of His love, and God blesses the child who's called His own.
Known from the Beginning
Listen, if it all started with Romans 10:9, where do we go from here? You want the lowdown? It's a happy man who realizes that our first movement toward God was actually the second movement overall, since the One who said "Call on Me" called us first (John 6:44) and Christ is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (Rev. 13:8).

Released in early October, our 18th single of 2017 spoofs two American bands who first found fame in the 70's.
You Might Stink
Some folks downplay a talent or ability when they should display it. "It's all I can do," they say. "That's it. I'm not the one God should use." But let's go to Romans 12 and 1 Corinthians 12 and take another look. If you think it over, you can't hold on too long to the notion that your God-given gift isn't good enough to serve God.
Show Us the Way
Let's pretend you're a Galilean nobody knows, 2000 years ago, waiting for Messiah. Suddenly, a teacher with fresh ideas and healing power pops into your life, making it easy to understand the Scriptures. You might as well follow Him, right? Then, after becoming an overnight sensation, He says He's leaving. You don't want to say goodbye. Now what?

Released in mid-September, our 17th single of 2017 spoofs two straightforward rock hits from the 70's and the 80's.
You're Mad at What?
We'll tell you straight up: there's no magic Christian formula for living a sinless life. That doesn't mean we shouldn't give it a try, but we won't reach perfection till it's over. In the meantime, seek God's guidance and forgiveness day after day, hold on to 1 Corinthians 1:8 and Philippians 1:6, and carry on till tomorrow. Better days await.
Pick It Up
The Bible was given to us freely by God, and it'll give you a reason to live and show you how to live forever, but you have to take it off the shelf. The Word of God is alive, written not for the innocent only but for saint and sinner alike, and if you read it, it'll come back to you later like a boomerang. Get all you can take before they take it away from us.

Released in late-July, our 15th single of 2017 spoofs two hard-rocking classics that were both released in 1975.
The Man Born to Scale the Mountain
For a guy who spent so much time with God, Moses was very down to earth. But, as this musical self-portrait shows, he got bent out of shape and felt his blood pressure rising when Israel's idolatry and complaining proved difficult to cure. Their hearts were as cold as the stone tablets he brought down from Sinai, yet he kept interceding for them.
Free Indeed
Some preachers don't touch too much upon the topic of sin, but Jesus didn't waste time beating around the bush. For those about to read the Gospels for the first time, prepare for a shock: Our sins have snowballed into a landslide that's put us deep in the hole, and it's a long way to the top. But Jesus can engineer your jailbreak (John 8:36).

Thankfully
The prodigal told his father, "I'll be alright without you." He thought his departure was an escape, only the young man couldn't look into the future to see the trial by fire that would happen next. But his father took him back with open arms after the fall. God treats us just the same way anytime we repent. Why keep on running till the party's over?
Works
Clandestine people claiming to have a faith in God say it ain't none of your business whether they have a noticeable one. Our final destination's unknown to all but Him and us right now, but our actions/reactions are windows into our souls. Works don't save us, but they do identify us. State your faith in black and white, but deeds put color in your life.

Released in early July, our 13th single of 2017 spoofs two male solo artists who scored their biggest hits in the mid-to-late '80's.
Expected to Love
Some people can do what they like, but Jesus calls us to love one another, our neighbors, our enemies, every kind of people! How can we still be friends with God and not love those created in His image? God offers forgiveness, but you can have it only if you forgive others. That's true love. Get it through your heart; it'll help your blood pressure drop.
Born in the Jewish Faith
Growing up as a Pharisee, Saul of Tarsus felt tougher than the rest. He had high hopes for eradicating Christianity entirely, waging war against the Church like a human wrecking ball. Then one day his vision suddenly stopped working on the highway to Tarsus as he was blinded by the light of Christ himself, who gave him reason to believe.

Boys Are Scary
A parody about Jacob's daughter Dinah? Are you serious? If you've read Genesis 34, you know the rest. There's nothing sugarcoated about the story; it was real bad news for everyone involved. This song looks at it from the other end of the telescope, coming up close for Dinah's own perspective.
Once You See Truth, You Can't Unsee It
It seems like everybody's heard the truth, but only some actually see it. The truth will set you free, but you can't get there from hearsay unless God chooses to reveal it to your heart. Once He opens your eyes, you can't unsee it. You don't need x-ray vision like Superman; it's automatic for the people who've been around the Son.

You Give Up on Bad Days
Hey, God never said life will be a bed of roses, even if you're not living in sin. We hope you have a nice day every day but, if not, don't let it rock you. Tribulations bring about perseverance, character, and hope (Romans 5:3-5) and eternal glory (2 Cor. 4:17). Raise your hands in prayer and always keep the faith. You'll bounce back.
Nain
The widow thought her better days were behind her. She'd had only one son, and now he was dead, with no one left to carry on the family name. Her life was empty, and she was just waiting for the rest of it to be over. But by the end of her encounter with Jesus that fateful day, she'd never felt so alive. And neither had her son.

God won't forget you in the bad times, so don't forget Him in the good times. Don't wait until you suffer some tragedy/setback or want something, need something, etc. Setting specific time(s) to pray every day is great, but so is making an unscheduled stop in your day to open up and say all that's on your heart and mind.
No One Likes You
This crazy world loves to drive Christians away. They'll mock you like a horrid kind of person and try to black out the Son in your life.

Released in early May, our ninth single of 2017 features two songs discussing the origin and uniqueness of life on Earth.
Don't Tell Me We're Lucky
Skeptics insist that Christians are wrong to claim mankind is unique. And when you close your eyes to the evidence, you might think Earth isn't anything special, either. E.T. brought out a sentimental streak in all of us, but our interstellar love affair with aliens is based on sci-fi, not fact. Bible-believers know the secret of life's success on this planet.
No Exclusions
The biggest lesson learned from evolution is that the theory keeps evolving. It's had more facelifts than any aging actress. What you believe is your decision, but if you don't follow along, they'll portray you (and all who get born again) as some sap who believes the devil put dinosaurs here. We don't deny dinosaurs, but is there any proof for abiogenesis?

Dweebs
Any Christian who's being realistic right now knows he'd never be good enough in God's eyes without Christ inside, but he'll never be good enough in man's eyes with Christ inside. You can't run around with a John 3:16 shirt on and expect non-Christians to get up and applaud. If you're looking for approval, you'll have to wait till judgment day.
Turn to Luke
The road from Jerusalem to Jericho was notoriously dangerous. You could start off in the prime of your life and still be DOA when it was over. Travelers had to watch out every minute for bandits ready to jump them. This is the story of one of the lucky ones who survived such an attack, thanks to a good Samaritan, something once considered an oxymoron.

Lethargy
Some folks go to bed long after dark yet still spend their days in a spiritual sleepwalk. Don't you be like that! "Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you" (Ephesians 5:14). Are you already up? Then stop dragging your feet and start making some noise. Let's wake up the neighbors! Why are we waiting? They need to know!
Phony Ol' Lie
They call it "New Age" this time around, but it's as old as Eden. A certain serpent's been telling mankind ever since that we could become gods whenever we wanted. Find Genesis 3 and check it out. The only way to regain the peace, love and happiness we lost back then is through Christ. What if He came knocking again tonight? Would you open up?

Selling the Dogma
Have you taken your dogma for a walk lately? You'll have critics all over you as fast as lightning if you try to have a black-and-white discussion about morality in this world that worships the beauty of gray. There are even many Christian brothers unaware of the essentials of the faith throwing proper doctrine out with the bathwater.
Role Never Changes
There's wrestling involved in spiritual life (Eph. 6:12), but Jesus and Satan don't switch roles every now and then like WWE tough guys -- lucky for you! Only the strong survive, and you can't fight this battle without Christ. Satan is a liar and a murderer; Jesus is the Truth and the life. When He knocks (Rev. 3:20), don't let Him go, or you'll take it on the chin.

Noah Man
Noah's neighbors may have mocked him, but they were the ones who didn't know enough to come in out of the rain, for no one outside his family asked to join in his venture. Yes, it is possible they asked once the flood started, but you can't do that. In the end, they learned the fool in the hull of that big boat knew something they didn't.
Makes Me Cranky
Though Joseph had many, many brothers, his family life wasn't all peace and good and brotherhood. He was a ball of fire, but they saw him as a ball and chain. Their dad used Joseph to spy on how his other children behaved, which wouldn't have mattered if they'd had nothing to hide. Before long, they'd be getting together to do something to him.

New Downloads Available for a Donation
Released in mid-February, our fourth single of 2017 spoofs the hit debut singles of two rock bands formed in New York City one in the 70's and one in the 90's.
Feels Like in First John
Gnostics can range from one to another extreme (self-denial or sensuality) but they all say you will need to know certain inside information to achieve salvation. We've seen it before; it happens all the time. Take a little time to think things over: it's knowing Christ, not knowledge itself, that saves us and enables us to know we have eternal life.
Leviticus Can't Be Done
Many Galatians believed through Paul's preaching, but later the Church developed a rapidly expanding pocket full of Christianized legalists. Their salvation and Paul's were based on two premises that were diametrically opposed. One little misstep and you're guilty of the whole Law. How could you want that when you know you could have grace?
The downloads are free with your donation of any size to the ministry
of ApologetiX. Once you make a donation, we'll email you the link for
the MP3 files and cover art. Donations are not tax-deductible but help
keep this ministry going.
