Mathew Maciel Releases 'Resisting You' EP
Mathew Maciel has released his five-song EP 'Resisting You', available now on all streaming platforms.
The EP's title track won Mathew a spot in the 2023 You God’s Music Showcase, and asks:
Why do we resist God and His plan? What do we have to lose when trusting God? When we stop resisting, we learn God’s love is deep. His love keeps pulling us to the truth.
“So, what do I have to lose ‘cause I’m done Resisting You.â€
Also featured on the new EP are the tracks, 'Life', 'Your Amazing Grace', 'Back To You' and 'Best Part'.
Out of nearly 2000 entries, Mathew was chosen as a contestant in the 2023 “You, God’s Music Showcase†singing competition judged by Dove Award winner Jordan Feliz, The Voice Season 9 winner Jordan Smith and Billboard charting Christian contemporary artist Blanca. The competition had the judges review contestants leading up to the Top 5 that competed live at the Tobin Center in San Antonio, TX.
