After // OD the Wordsmith

In his powerful spoken word piece "After," OD the Wordsmith takes the audience on an introspective journey through the transformative experience of encountering the love and redemption of Christ.

Through rhythmic, metaphorical verse, OD paints a vivid picture of the "before" - a life marked by brokenness, shame, and hopelessness. But as the piece progresses, it becomes a testament to the profound change that occurs "after" surrendering to the grace and mercy of God.

With raw vulnerability, OD's performance conveys the weight of personal struggle, the sense of being "lost" and consumed by darkness. Yet, his words also radiate an undeniable hope, as he describes the liberating experience of having the "chains" of sin unlocked and the "veil" of despair lifted.

Performed for Oak Life Church, "After" resonates deeply with the intention to have people reflect on their own spiritual journeys and the transformative power of genuine faith. OD's masterful use of spoken word becomes a vehicle for testifying to the life-changing redemption found in Christ, inspiring the audience to embrace their own "after" - a new beginning marked by purpose, restoration, and abundant life.
