Tauren Wells is giving away a signed copy of his brand-new book “Joy Bomb: Unleash Jesus’s Explosive Joy for an Extraordinary Life” exclusively to a Maasbach Radio listener!

This Thanksgiving, Maasbach Radio is celebrating gratitude and JOY — and Pastor Tauren’s book is the perfect guide to help you take your joy back.

“Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise.” — Psalm 100:4
“In Your presence there is fullness of joy.” — Psalm 16:11

Maybe you’re navigating a confusing season…
Maybe anxiety has been wearing you down…
Maybe everything just feels a bit blah lately…

Bible teacher, songwriter, and one of Christian music’s most contagiously joyful voices, Pastor Tauren Wells has a powerful reminder for you: Jesus’ first message was about how to be truly happy. Think about it: How important to the heart of God must your joy be if Jesus uses the word “happy” eight times in his first recorded sermon on planet Earth (aka: the Beatitudes)?

How to WIN your signed copy of JOY BOMB!

Ben Fuller is back on Maasbach Radio and we can’t believe he forgot to bring this one thing… his mug!

We’re used to seeing Ben carry around his mug everywhere he goes, but when he arrived at the Maasbach Radio studio on location we noticed he didn’t have his mug with him. Luckily, we had a ‘Miracle Day Mug’ to give to him and everything was back to normal.

You’ll be hearing a special message and prayer from Ben Fuller this week on Maasbach Radio. Make sure you’re subscribed to Maasbach Radio’s Youtube channel so you won’t miss a thing. May you be encouraged as you’re tuning in to Maasbach Radio today.

Check out this bilingual acoustic version of the soothing song ‘Still waters (Psalm 23)’ by Leanna Crawford, joined by Christy Grace.

CHORUS – ENGLISH & DUTCH
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
Hij leidt mij naar stil water en angst ken ik niet
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Weet ik dat U bij mij bent, mijn Vader, mijn vriend
Your goodness and mercy will follow me all of my days
Aan Uw water zo stil en zo kalm

BRIDGE – ENGLISH & DUTCH
Still waters run through any valley I could find
Ik leg angsten neer aan de hemelse rivier
Your word has been true in every season of my life
I believe, yes, I believe

CHORUS – DUTCH & ENGLISH
De Heer is mijn Herder, mij ontbreekt niets
He leads me by still waters ’til my fears are gone
Als ik ga door valleien vol schaduw van dood
Oh, I know You are with me, my Father, my friend
Uw goedheid, genade die volgen mij, mijn leven lang
I know by Your still waters I’m safe

VERSE – ENGLISH
When I’m feeling my feet are tired
From running so hard for miles
You are the air I really need

VERSE – DUTCH
Als het leven mij heen en weer slaat
En ik wankel in mijn positie
Zie ik uw hand in elk moment

PRE-CHORUS – ENGLISH
And every time
I’m stuck in indecision
Losing my vision
You close the distance

CHORUS – DUTCH
Ik hoef het niet te zien om te geloven
Mijn hele leven heb ik U van node
En ik, voel u in het vuur en de regen
CHORUS – ENGLISH
So help me learn to listen when You’re speaking
‘Cause love is not a secret that You’re keeping
And I I’ve felt You when walls are caving in
Yeah You’re with me in the whisper and the wind

BRIDGE – ENGLISH
I don’t wanna waste any time
Just looking for You in the…
BRIDGE – DUTCH
…lucht, U bent dichterbij dan gevoel
en U ademt door mij heen

CHORUS – DUTCH
Ik hoef het niet te zien om te geloven
Mijn hele leven heb ik U van node
En ik, voel u in het vuur en de regen
CHORUS – ENGLISH
So help me learn to listen when You’re speaking
‘Cause love is not a secret that You’re keeping
And I I’ve felt You when walls are caving in
Yeah You’re with me in the whisper and the wind

Check out this bilingual acoustic version of CAIN’s victory anthem: ‘I made it’ by Taylor, Madison and Logan Cain joined by Christy Grace and Jess Maasbach.

BRIDGE – ENGLISH
I made it through more
than I thought that I could
I walked through the worst
But it worked for my good
It’s a miracle that I can stand here and say
I made it, oh I made it

BRIDGE – DUTCH
Ik kwam erdoorheen
Veel meer dan ik aankon
Valleien doorstaan
Maar U draaide het om
’t is een wonder dat ik hier kan staan en ik zeg
Ik ben er, oh ik ben er

CHORUS – ENGLISH
I’m coming out the other side stronger
One foot in front of the other
Hands still raising, hearts still praising
I made it, I made it, I made it, I made it

CHORUS – DUTCH
Door de stormen van hel en hoog water
Verliet ik nooit de hand van mijn Vader
Ik adem en ik dank U Jezus
Ik ben er, ik ben er, ik ben er, ik ben er

Check out this bilingual acoustic version of the hitsong ‘Counting my blessings’ by Seph Schlueter and Christy Grace.

One, two, three up to infinity
I’d run out of numbers
Before I could thank You for everything

Één, twee, drie, tot in oneindigheid
Niet genoeg cijfers om u te bedanken
voor alles, Heer

God, I’m still counting my blessings
For all that You’ve done in my life
The more that I look in the details
The more of Your goodness I find

Aan deze kant van de hemel
Schieten minuten te kort
Toch tel ik al mijn zegeningen
Ook al raken de cijfers op

I will keep counting my blessings
Knowing I can’t count that high

Check out this bilingual acoustic version of the PASSION worshipsong “Here for You”!

Let our praise be Your welcome
Let our songs be a sign
We are here for You
We are here for You

Uit de lucht daalt Uw adem
Leven vult heel ons hart
Wij zijn hier voor U
Wij zijn hier voor U

CHORUS – ENGLISH
To you our hearts are open
Nothing here is hidden
You are our one desire

CHORUS – DUTCH
U alleen bent heilig
U alleen bent waardig
God zendt Uw vuur nu neer

BRIDGE – ENGLISH
We welcome you with praise
We welcome you with praise
Almighty God of love
Be welcomed in this place

BRIDGE – DUTCH
Daal neer in onze lof
Daal neer in onze lof
Oh liefdevolle God
Daal neer in onze lof

BRIDGE – ENGLISH
Let every heart adore
Let every soul awake
Almighty God of love
Be welcomed in this place

Kom ieder hart aanbid
En ied’re ziel verhoog
O liefdevolle God
Daal neer in onze lof
