Israeli singer, songwriter and producer Yair Levi joins Brandon Woolum for a powerful and deeply personal conversation about faith, loss, and the heart behind his new single, Back To You (Sabbath).

Inspired by the Biblical concept of Sabbath as a divine gift, “Back To You (Sabbath)” is more than just a song. It is an invitation to slow down. Written with Ryan Hall and produced by Kevin Embleton, the track blends traditional Israeli folk instruments with modern textures, creating a peaceful yet soul stirring sound that feels both ancient and fresh. At its core, the message reminds us that while we strive and work hard, true blessing flows from taking time to reconnect with God.

In this interview, Yair opens up about seasons of brokenness and grief that reshaped his faith. He shares how moments of personal loss and searching forced him to look inward and rediscover his dependence on God. Through it all, he has come to see Sabbath not just as a day of rest, but as a posture of trust and a return to the true Source of abundance.

With more than 8 million streams worldwide, Yair continues to build bridges between Jewish and Christian audiences. After receiving special Rabbinical dispensation to enter churches and share the original language of the Bible, he has ministered across the U.S., performing both Hebrew and English worship songs and highlighting the shared roots of faith.

This is a meaningful conversation about surrender, restoration, and what it truly means to come back to God.
