Big Daddy Weave Frontman ‘Blown Away’ That His Song Led to Murder Confession

[JCFantasy23]

ATennessee man was recently dealt two sentences: freedom in Christ and life in prison.

In a murder trial last Friday, defendant Danny Holmes opened with a 20-minute testimony where he confessed to killing a man three years ago and then he recounted his spiritual transformation in prison since then, the Murfreesboro Daily News Journal reported.

Instrumental to his confession was the song “Redeemed” by Christian rock band Big Daddy Weave. He brought the lyrics in a notebook to court.

Mike Weaver, the band’s eponymous lead singer, told CT he was “blown away” when he learned how God used his band’s music in Holmes’ life.

“Over the last handful of years, so many stories have come from God using that song,” said Weaver, who lives north of Nashville in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, just 33 miles from the site of Holmes’ crime in Murfreesboro. “It is a message that is so dear to [God’s] heart.”

The sweet sweet Holy Spirit. I remember this preacher tell this story... where he was preaching one night and this woman came in walked right up to him. Told how her (I forgot husband or brother) was going to die tomorrow for something he never did. The preacher said and he didnt know why "holy spirit sickum". He never gave it another thought..

The next morning as he saw the news paper.. said so and so confess to the murder. What shocked the police was.. the killer didnt know why he called the police and turned himself in. Granted that preacher KNEW faith!
