Megan Woods

Megan Woods is from a small town in Northern Massachusetts where God planted a love for music in her at a really young age. Even though she grew up in a Christian home with an amazing Christian family, she didn’t have a personal relationship with God. Throughout her life Megan had always struggled with her self-worth and believing she was worthy of love. For 10 years of her life one of the closest people to her verbally and emotionally abused her badly and it left her broken. At her lowest point she was finding ways she could end her life. In that very moment she got a phone call from one of the closest people in her life, and they had just had a near death experience. And they said to her word for word, “Megan, Jesus Christ is real.” In her lowest, most desperate moment Jesus saved her life.

Megan then got herself in church, in the Word, and she started leading worship at her home church and God changed every single last thing about her life for the better. Shortly after, God spoke to her and revealed that singing for Jesus was what she was supposed to do with her life. Megan explains, “It was the most intense feeling I’ve ever experienced. It wasn’t like God was poking me, he was grabbing me by the shoulders and calling me to something larger than I could even imagine. Now I want nothing more than to tell people about Jesus through my music and share the story of the work God has done in my life.

Despite her newfound passion for Christ and the God-led direction she was going in, pain from her past still plagued her mind and heart. Thankfully, developing her relationship with Christ through her songwriting began the process of healing. “When God called me to Him and I started writing songs about Jesus, my life completely changed.” Leaning into God’s love after coming from a place of worthlessness shows up in all the songs she writes. “I hope people come to know Jesus how I’ve come to know Him,” Woods says. “A lot of people talk about how we need to love God, but I want people to realize God loves them! Sometimes we forget that He loved us first.”
