In addition to the song's success on social media, "Counting My Blessings" has received 30 adds over the past four weeks at Christian radio and has entered the top 25 on multiple charts.
Most of all, it is Seph Schlueter's (pronounced "shleeter") deep passion to awaken people's hearts, to help lead others into an encounter with Jesus and give language to a relationship with God through his music. His greatest desire is that Jesus would be glorified in all that we do and that Heaven would be made present through the way we live our lives.
With his unique, melodic voice and honest lyrics, follow his socials and you'll quickly see his heart for the Lord along with his endearing personality. While he may be newer to the Provident roster, both songwriting and performing have long been part of his life. He's released his own music, has opened for artists such as Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham, and began the group Damascus Worship when he saw the need for worship and revival in the Catholic Church. As a group member and current Worship Director, Damascus Worship is based in Centerburg, Ohio, and has released numerous songs along with an album in 2020, Awake My Soul.
