About This Item
Jesse Manibusan will be playing at WYD08!
Jesse has definitely made his mark on God’s earth, bringing his unique message of Spirit, Peace And Mercy (SPAM) to countless audiences who are hungry for Good News.
Jesse has the special gift of being able to engage and reach out to any individual -- either one on one at a confirmation retreat, or within a large group of teens at a youth rally, or with a crowd of 500,000 people at World Youth Day. It doesn’t matter how small or large the audience is. This dynamic performer will touch your soul and have you praising God with him.
Jesse calls himself a Catholic lay evangelist who uses music, comedy and stories to connect with people. Very much in demand around the country as a motivational speaker, Jesse’s uplifting message touches all generations. “God gives us life. We may have disappointments, we may be really angry or depressed,” said the singer. “It’s good we can have a moment to say to God, ‘Thank you for life.’”
From the Publisher's Web Site
Jesse Manibusan, Power of Peace: The peace of Christ is a power that unites, bridges and heals. Jesse's third album is a musical testament to this transforming power in our lives. As the title track puts it, "in every word, in every deed, we've got the power of peace!" This is music that empowers every believer to act and speak in ways that spread Christ's peace.
Like Jesse's other collections, Power of Peace is eclectic in style, mixing reggae, rap, rock and contemporary tracks with pieces appropriate for the liturgy. Hip Hop fans will love "Another Day," a well-executed rap with strong bass lines. "Keep Me Safe" is a cheerful, reggae-style setting of Psalm 16. "Kyrie Eleison" is another reggae track, with great steel drum accompaniment.
"Send Out Your Spirit," based on Psalm 104, is one of several songs that were included in the Spirit & Song songbook. The collection also includes a contemporary Mass setting, Mass of the Solid Rock, with a nicely written Holy, Memorial Acclamation, Amen and Lamb of God.
