Chris and Carol Green Release Legacy Songs, Family Albums

Legacy Songs - Click HERE

Pennsylvania, USA - With their fourth release in 2025, called Zeal for Your House, Chris and Carol Green nearly completed their summer series of five legacy albums.

"It's About Legacy"

More than 20 years after stepping away from writing/ recording songs in order to focus on their ministry/ community work and book writing, Chris and Carol Green have resurfaced as A.I. (songwriters/ producers) artists with four Legacy Song Releases based upon their life in marriage, ministry, mentoring, and moving (by God's grace) through the messy parts of life.  ​

With the discovery that they could upload their original song recordings from over two decades ago, onto an A.I. (artificial intelligence) music platform and meticulously recreate them with powerful music and vocals, a whole new world was opened to them.​

 "We had buried the songs in the past and moved on," explained Chris, "This new technology gave us the opportunity to finally reproduce the songs the way we originally heard them, but with a much more professional sound."​

However, and most importantly, Chris and Carol see this Legacy Song series as one way to pass their family's calling, purpose and mission on to their children and grandchildren. Their goal is to leave a legacy for their family and generations to come in the same way that King David left a blueprint and songs for the next generation that would later build the temple.​ "My mom passed away in September of 2024," Chris reveals, "Working on these old familiar songs helped me to process my grief. I cried and worshiped a lot because she left us a legacy to simply love God and be faithful to Him. Carol and I found a way to embrace and carry forth that legacy and our family's mandate to future generations."​ The Greens readily admit that their songs are "old school" and somewhat out dated, but the beauty of music is that, like fashions and fads, the old styles eventually come back around. And even though these AI productions don't meet music industry standards, this couple sees this as an opportunity to use their songs in a very strategic way. "We didn't reengage these songs because of some misguided fantasy to have a music career," the Greens assert, "We're not trying to revive the old days because we can't let go of the past. Music, as a career, has never been a desire for us. We are simply parents and poets who've been blessed to set our poetry to music. Through this 'new wine skin' God is fulfilling our desire to pass it on to the next generation. They may not listen to it right now, but when the time comes, it will be here for them."

This entire 4-album (70 songs) project comes just in time because families are struggling and recovering from a disaster-filled year, and this is a wonderful source for inspiring worship, reflection and healing with Biblically-based words of encouragement, comfort and wisdom wrapped in songs.

Utilizing A.I. technology they were able to upload original recordings from many years ago, provide detailed instructions and creative prompts; and these are the amazing results.

Vintage - Click HERE

Pennsylvania, USA - With the third of their five summer releases in 2025, Chris and Carol Green announced that their latest project: Vintage, is officially live on their website.

"Vintage" is a 25-track collection of the most-requested songs by family, friends and followers of Chris and Carol Green over the last 30+ years. These tunes, which span from 1990 through 2005, feature prophetic songs that speak to the issues of life, love, marriage and our relationship with God; all of which were written and presented in the uniquely poetic styles of the Greens. *Vintage" generally refers to something old, but still valuable or of high quality, especially when it reflects a particular style or era. More than 20 years after stepping away from writing/ recording songs in order to focus on their community work and book writing, Chris and Carol Green, as new A.I. (songwriters/ producers) music artists, have resurfaced with upgrades to their songs that have always been based upon their life in marriage, ministry, mentoring, and moving (by God's grace) through the messy parts of life.

However, most importantly, Chris and Carol see this as a Legacy Song release, and as a way to pass their family's calling, purpose and mission on to their children and grandchildren. Their goal is to leave a legacy for their family and generations to come in the same way that King David left a blueprint and songs for the next generation that would later build the temple.​​ "My mom passed away in September of 2024," Chris reveals, "Working on these old familiar songs helped me to process my grief. I cried and worshiped a lot because she left us a legacy to simply love God and be faithful to Him. Carol and I found a way to embrace and carry forth her legacy and our family's mandate to future generations."​ The Greens readily admit that their songs are "old school" and somewhat out dated, but the beauty of music is that, like fashions and fads, the old styles eventually come back around.

STEP Forward Life Institute Marks 4-Year Milestone

 

Pennsylvania, USA --- Today, on the 4th anniversary of the launch of the STEP Forward Life Institute, Chris and Carol Green announced a new emphasis and focus for their online LIFE-education platform.

"We wanted to do a better job of communicating the true purpose for this online teaching ministry," explains Chris and Carol Green. "So we have shifted from merely talking about WHAT we can offer, to pushing forth WHY and HOW a student will benefit from enrolling in a STEP Forward course."

The STEP Forward Life Institute introduced a new slogan and caption: 

Equipping Believers for Kingdom Servantship*

​"We came to realize that our students simply desired to minister to their families, strengthen their faith, or serve in their communities," the Greens revealed. "It's not a popular message, but it is an absolute reality that everyone isn't assigned to corporate, organizational, institutional or ministry leadership roles; However everyone is called to servantship. So we're going to be a lot more intentional about promoting our mission to equip and prepare them be Kingdom-minded Servants."

Servantship signifies the condition or state of being a servant, essentially meaning the act of serving others. It can also be used to refer to servanthood. In a leadership context, servantship emphasizes prioritizing the needs and well-being of others, often with humility and a focus on service over personal gain. ​

*Kingdom servantship, in a Christian context, refers to the concept of embracing a life of service and humility within the Kingdom of God, mirroring the example of Jesus Christ. It's about prioritizing the needs of others, demonstrating humility, and allowing love to guide actions, reflecting the heart of Jesus. This principle emphasizes that true greatness in the Kingdom is found through serving others, not seeking to be served. 

"Our students don't merely watch video lectures, memorize information, and pass quizzes and examinations," the Greens added, "Now we are boldly encouraging them to embody the Greatest Commandment and we're equipping them to fulfill the Great Commission. They will be able to minister with confidence knowing God is their source, that experience is their study, that faith is their evidence, and Service is their credential."

 

The STEP Forward Life Institute had already been in the works for 16 years before the Greens officially launched it in April of 2021. They had amassed over 1500 video recordings, established a sizeable video archive/ library, built a YouTube channel, created over 20 Vimeo channels, and written several books. This couple has been in the trenches, teaching and preparing Believers for ministry service, for over 20 years in south central Pennsylvania, across the United States, and around the world.

"We believe we were being prepared all along to provide this tangible and digital way to strengthen, equip and empower God's people to do effective works of service in their families and communities," Chris and Carol Green concluded, "We believe this is our true role and calling."

Editor's Notes about the STEP Forward Life Institute:

• currently has 24 students enrolled in 57 assigned courses

CARE-Ready Coaches Certified in USA Communities Across 12 States

Upon the completion of the Online CARE-Ready Life Coach Certification program, Ohio resident Dovonna Smith, became the 113th recipient of a life coach certification from the STEP Forward Life Institute.

“We now have people in 12 states who have been trained in our CARE-Ready model of coaching,” commented the program's creators and facilitators, Chris and Carol Green.

As the newest CARE-Ready coach, Dovonna worked through several personal challenges and obstacles to complete the course. At the beginning of her year-long journey she said, “I wanted to become a life coach as a way to be able to support others that have experienced life and felt sometimes as if there was no hope, and that all the things that they went through did not serve a purpose.”

She is the Green’s first online graduate since transitioning their program to its current format that offers students the opportunity to receive 1:1 personal coaching, tutoring and mentoring from the Greens as they are working through the courses.

Upon graduating Dovonna said, “I really honestly think that through the program I was able to discover the reason I was led to do so. At first  I was not clear on the specific area in which I would be a coach. Now through this training and prayer, I have discovered the reason why.”

CARE-Ready Life Coaches and CARE-Ready Responders are now disbursed and embedded in 40+ organizations, businesses, agencies or ministries across 12 states including: Alabama, California, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.

Chris and Carol Green Share Secrets to Successful Marriage of 44 Years

Today, Chris and Carol Green celebrate their 44th Wedding Anniversary.

"Forty-four years ago, we got our license and were married by a judge on December 29, 1980 in Tulsa, OK. (That was Part 1). Five days later we were married in a church, standing before family and friends in St. Louis, MO. on January 3, 1981 (That was Part 2)." the couple shares.

"Nine months before we got married, we were almost killed in a car accident. A drunk driver ran a red light, hit us, and flipped our car. So when we got married, we had a different appreciation for life and one another. Even though we had arguments, conflict, confusion, craziness and discontentment like any other couple; For us, divorce was never an option."

The Greens share their incredible story and their three secrets in a book they published on Amazon Books in July of 2011 titled We Made a PACT.

Now it is a 5-star rated publication with amazing reviews:

I started reading the book and I couldn't put it down. Normally when I read a book, I'm a picker. I pick the chapters that I want to read, but I never read the whole book. Once I started it (We Made a PACT), I read the whole book and I sat there and said, "O' God, absolutely, completely, YES!" ---Raleigh, Harrisburg, PA

*****

I highly recommend that everyone, including every married couple get this book. Every married couple needs a checkup now and then. Get this for your check up. Everyone who does premarital counseling should get this book. Anyone who is thinking about getting married should get this book. Teenagers should get this book.

It's a raw, transparent look at the beginnings of a couple's courtship and marriage, the difficulties encountered, and how through principles of wisdom codified in a PACT, caused them to finally lay a good foundation for marriage. It's not a normal topical book on marriage. It's a peak, as a fly on the wall, into someone else's process that will impact you in the end. ---Ancil, Trinidad

*****

I read "We Made a PACT" and started crying on page 16. Thank you, Chris & Carol for writing. Precious and impactful. ---L.F., New York

*****

At times I will start a book and read only a few chapters. I just want to let you know, I stopped for coffee and I had your book (We Made a PACT). I started reading it. I finished half of the book at the coffee shop. I just finished the rest. Your book is the first book I've finished, ever. It was awesome. It will change my life. I cried reading the first few chapters and the last few. I can go on and on. I have told people about the book before I finished it. Again, it is an awesome book. Maybe I can read it again with my husband. If not, I know this book was for me. God continue to bless you, keep you and guide you. ---Charlene, St. Louis, MO

*****

"Your book, We Made a PACT, was/is one of the most insightful materials about marriage I've ever laid my hands on." ----Aloise, Ft. Smith, Arkansas

*****

To those who love to read about relationships, this book will be a page turner. However, for those who like to apply what they read, the highlighter and notepad will be required. Chris and Carol Green have written a jewel, with remarkable transparency, to those who desire to establish great, Godly relationships with the depth and complexity needed to last forever. ---Chrys Yvette, Los Angeles, CA

*****

Thought provoking! Enlightening! Tasteful transparency! If there is only one thing you can do to invest in the health and future of your marriage this year, let it be the purchase of this book! It's a must read for the married and all who desire to be! Awesome! 100% real!!! ---Mike and Mary, St. Louis, MO

*****

It was so powerful that I could not put it down until I was done. And I promise to share my learning to others and take the accountability that others will know God's will. Thank you Chris and Carol. ---Wanida, Las Vegas, Nevada

*****

I wanted to let you know how much your book (We Made a PACT) blessed my soul! You guys are AWESOME and I wanted to personally thank you for allowing God to use you for HIS GLORY. You blessed ME/others by allowing ME/us a glimpse as your journey through life! You all are such gifted individuals who love the Lord dearly (it shows through your obedience & your transparency) - which is the TRUTH of the Word of God that you live and share with others!! This book DID/will cause a mighty break through and advance ME/us to the purpose that God has planned for each of our lives. Truth sets the soul FREE!! Again, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! ---Stephanie, Kansas City, MO
