Man, when I first created GodsCorner.org, my whole heart was in it. I wasn’t trying to be famous, I wasn’t chasing views — I just wanted a place where praise and worship could live, breathe, and reach people who were hurting or searching for God. I built that platform from the ground up, uploading songs, prayers, teachings, all with the vision that God gave me. Then I opened a DistroKid account so I could distribute the worship music everywhere — Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, all of it — thinking, “Alright, now people will finally hear the message. Now the ministry will grow.” But the truth is… it didn’t. I looked at the member count, and it hit me: 13 members. That’s it. Thirteen people in a world full of millions. It messed with me. It made me feel like nobody cared, like the ministry I poured my life into was invisible.
And honestly, that discouraged me. I started wondering if the problem was me, my message, or if people just don’t value praise and worship anymore unless it comes with fame or a big label behind it. So I switched gears. I created a JTWayne Beats account. No gospel. No ministry talk. Just beats, production, music that anybody can vibe to. And the crazy part? It took off instantly. Way more than five times the viewers, more clicks, more listens, more attention — all for music that didn’t mention God one time. And I’m not gonna lie… it made me sad. Because it made me realize people will show up for entertainment, but not for the truth. They’ll support the beats, the vibe, the sound — but the moment you say “ministry,” they disappear.
Sometimes it feels like the world wants your gift but not your calling. They want your sound but not your message. And I’m caught between both worlds — the ministry God gave me and the music that actually gets attention. I’m proud of what I built with GodsCorner.org, but it hurts when you see how differently people react when God’s name is attached. Still, I know the ministry is bigger than numbers. I know God can take 13 faithful people and move mountains. And I know the seeds I planted — even if nobody claps for them — will grow when God says it’s time. Until then, I’m just moving forward, creating, building, and trusting God with both sides of my gift.
