About Half Beat Off Music Writer, Buddy Johnson
Inspired by my faith, I create music to uplift and heal, sharing messages of hope, love, and spiritual renewal.
Half Beat off Music was created while navigating the life my Lord and Savior gave me.
Being an adult in today's world is not easy, and without the Lord in a person's life, I can't imagine how it would be possible. After building a profitable business in construction, having kids, and being a husband while serving the Lord, one of the biggest heartbreaks in my life occurred. It happened because I was listening to 'me' and not the Lord. A heartbreak so wrenching that when I turned to my Savior for help, I pleaded for relief from the pain, asked for mending of my heart, and demanded that Satan leave me. Then my prayers were answered—with music! Never having even written one word of a song, God placed words in my heart that poured out as Christian songs meant for those who need fixing, encouragement, or simply soothing melodies. I hope one of these songs catches your heart, and if you're not close to God at the moment, know that I will keep you in my prayers for Him to lead you to Him. I pray our music ministry touches your life, brings you closer to the Lord, and teaches you that all you have to do is believe and ask, and it shall be given.
Meet Ron, Our Songwriter & Partner
Growing up in the church, music has always been a part of my walk with Christ. From the early days of learning to play and sing Christian songs, to now serving through worship in my music ministry, I’ve found joy in using the gifts God gave me for His glory.
As the years have passed, I’ve come to realize that following Jesus isn’t about being seen—it’s about being faithful. My journey has taught me to focus less on recognition and more on humility, on giving rather than receiving. Whether I’m strumming a guitar or lending a helping hand behind the scenes, I want my life to reflect the love and grace that Christ has shown me.
I may be getting older, but my heart still beats with the same desire: to serve the Lord with all I have, to stay grounded in His Word, and to keep growing in kindness, patience, and generosity. Because at the end of the day, it's not about me—it’s all about Him.
