BY FAITH is a band of Christian brothers who have overcome the snares of addiction and homelessness, now ministering to the lost with the music of experience, love, and hope. .
BY FAITH feels that their mission is to reach the lost street people and those in rehabs and homeless centers, as 3 of us in the band were quite familiar with those places being our only source of help for us in the midst of our addictions.
Steve, Ramon, and Jeff are no strangers to treatments centers, jail and worse. We have seen men, (including ourselves), come in those places tore up from the floor up, and then be restored and regenerated into men of God where no God existed before.
Steve feels that although church is great and important, the unsaved and self-condemned people aren't there in the church. They are outside. You gotta pick a harvest outside in the field, and America IS that very mission field.
If I can reach a man or woman with my songs and lyrics, and get them to think..."Wow! This guy is singing about the way I feel, and giving me a solution that worked for him,"then I am blessed to be that voice of a solution; And "The Solution", is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ...
We are currently taking time off from our outreaches; But soon to return...
Steve is now developing a new granite countertop company in Titusville,Fl,
Ramon is currently playing percussion in Jacksonville, FL for the bands D.O.D, and also Bill Hackworth and friends.
Jeff (a.k.a."Indian Blood") is currently recording his 3rd solo CD in Jacksonville, FL
Please feel free to download the songs for free and click the LYRICS button to let the words inside your heart. God Bless!

Hi Steve - Thanks for taking the time to write to me. It was very encouraging. May your life continue to be ABOUT Christ, and not just FOR Him. "He must increase, but I must decrease." John 3:30 Always good to hear about another trophy of grace. - BJ

Hello Steve,
Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement. Yes, I am very fond of "It's By Faith" also. I wrote it on the piano as a prayerful ballad and then adapted it for the record. When we play it live it is actually much more "driving" than on the record. Well, you asked about the CD. You can purchase the hard copy of the CD at www.CDBaby.com/ErikBledsoe or download the mp3's from my website at www.ErikB.com. Thanks again for the encouragement. I pray God continues to use it to build your faith as you pursue Him on your journey! Grace & Peace, Erik
