I am so ashamed of the community that told you that you had to leave Nikki. However, I think God´s plan for your life has filled a much bigger purpose. Hugs from a Canuck in Colombia. Blessings
God bless you, this is a heartwarming song it touches my heart and you are an amazing artist. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR BAND, you are all Truly fantastic...Amen, Thank you JESUS
Huge fan of Nikki in the 90s!! Met her several times and then I fell off the wagon for a while and saw the same for her too! So grateful for His redemption!! My heart is so happy to see you’re back singing for God!! He’s so faithful!!
Ryan, I remember Nikki from when she was 15-16. I also saw you guys last weekend at Cedar Springs Ranch. This song is now my anthem. Thank you both for sharing your gift with the world. Incredibly gifted family.
I was going through my subs to clean up and ran across this channel that hasn’t been updated in a while. What I realized is that I feel your music in my sacred heart. The world needs this energy right now.
Hi Nikki and Ryan, Thank you for sharing this most amazing version of 'Defender'... Your harmonies are incredibly beautiful...and I'm moved inside. My family and I watched the movie, Angels Sing, last night and I loved the Christmas song you sang in it. Just beautiful. So, I looked at the credits and saw your name, Nikki, and have had the pleasure of listening to some of your songs today. You mentioned in an interview on Good Morning La La Land that you have done a lot of background vocals as a big part of your career. I'd be so grateful if you could share some insight about it with me. I can clearly hear the anointing on your voice :) God bless you and your family. Warmly, Diana Marie
Keep on praising! Although you (Nikki) were shunned by people, we know WHO forgives and who saves us. I guess many forgot those forgiveness stories in the Bible.
Let me testify to the goodness of God! After a bad church experience I was plunged into a very dark depression; I felt unloved, unwanted, worthless, alone, rejected, as if everyone would be happier and better off if I were dead. But in the midst of my depression God gave me the words to a song. In 2020 towards the end of May I stopped pleading with God for Him to take my depression from me and instead I told Him about my depression, I told how I felt and about the events in my life which had caused me to feel that way, I told Him about what had happened that Wednesday night which had broken the proverbial camel's back plunging me into a deep depression. He told me to sing the chorus of my song until it became my reality. So I sang the chorus over and over that day. On the second day I once again sang the chorus over and over. On the third day June 1st 2020, when I woke up there was Jesus and He said to me "I love you" instantly joy flooded my soul for the first time in three years. My depression was gone, the storm was over because Jesus had come walking on the water! God is so amazing when I was yet in the depths of depression and He gave me the words that He ultimately used to heal me from depression, He was orchestrating my healing. When you find yourself in the storm look to Jesus, He won't leave in the storm, He will come walking on the water and when He walks on water He stills the storm.
The memory of the first day I heard you singing always comes back to me. May you carry on, just carry on... lives will be reached for the kingdom of heaven. May the Lord our God bless you. Your call is very great, may Jesus always protect you. A beautiful family of the Lord.

Some of the high notes at the beginning of this song, it seemed like you were reaching too much, if you want to expand your range, practice the note range you want to achieve with songs that are in that range. Sometimes, putting too much emphasis on something makes it seem unachievable. Don't be put off by this comment, it's just something I've learned in my nearly 50 years on this planet, I'm a tough critic on things that I know about. By the way, you have gained a new subscriber.
Thank you for writing a song that isn't full of swear words. Swearing takes no skill and is not an art form. Singing is. I'm so glad that you can actually sing. There are so many people making a living by singing that suck at it. There are so many people out there that can sing and have no way of sharing that with others.
Abundant blessings to you and your family Mr. Ryan. I saw you singing this song at my church...WOGM! I have been waiting for the release and I heard it last night on the radio. I have played it several times today and it's on repeat now! TESTIFY!!!!!!
