We are dedicated to making music founded in the Jazz tradition with lyrics that reflect the power and glory of God.
Who we are...
Over the past six years, the Brooks Lytle Jazz Ensemble has developed a sound that is unique to Christian music. God has blessed us with a music ministry to the PA Tri-State area that has encouraged deeper levels of spiritual contemplation and praise among believers. Through the context of jazz we’ve also been able to introduce many non-Christian listeners to the love of God and the need for salvation through Jesus Christ.

Our newest project...
Our newest project, the self released CD entitled, HIS WAYS is a mixture of original compositions, Jazz standards, and praise and worship arrangements.
Catching the vision...
We believe in the transforming message of Jesus Christ. We also have experienced the ability of Jazz music to transcend people to a deeper level of self reflection. We look forward to working with churches and organizations of various denominations as they seek out new and creative ways to tell the gospel story.If you desire to expose to your congregation to the diversity and richness of Christian Jazz, please contact us today.
More Ministry...
In addition to the Brooks Lytle music ministry, Aisha is pursuing ordination in the Presbyterian Church (USA) and Carl is an urban educator. Aisha and Carl have come to understand that the ministry that God has called them to extends beyond music.
Aisha:
I've just graduated from Princeton Theological Seminary with a Master's in Divinity. It has been a wild and wonderful experience as I pursue ordination in the Presbyterian Church (USA). Say a prayer for me as I continue my work in vocational ministry as youth director at Olney Presbyterian Church.
Carl:
I am currently a 3rd grade teacher in the Philadelphia public school system. I have learned a lot about myself and my gifts for teaching during my exciting but often challenging time in urban education. Pray for me as I strive to be a faithful steward of my gifts as an educator.
Please keep our ministries in your prayers.
