'Hands Off, Let God': Andrew Odion's Faith Journey

The title track, "Hands Off, Let God Do His Work" (with a pidgin version), comes from the struggle of praying and then still trying to "help God" - "All my efforts become futile until I get to the point I say, 'Okay, I'm just dropping it at Your feet.'" The decision to release an album came after surgery, during more than a month of recovery when he could only study scripture and watch TV - "If God has given it to you, it's timing.

You can't help God." The track "Suddenly" was born from the medical challenges his first son faced as a newborn - spending so much at the hospital, trusting God day and night - and God's unexpected provision of resources "suddenly from nowhere." His son is now in his twenties. On AI: "AI can help you...

Don't be lazy. But AI cannot do what God has told you... Fantastic doesn't mean it's blessed by God."

On secular artists featuring on gospel projects: "Would I do that? No... I'm kind of what you would call an old-school Christian." The album dropped in June on all major streaming platforms; more songs are written, each set to have a Pidgin version.
