"My music is a blend of who I am culturally—urban, Latin, rock and soul," says Bonilla.

The first single, I Love You, is a fun anthem-like song. According to Bonilla, "It’s a new way to praise without the traditional flare."  It’s also the cry of her heart when it comes to how she feels about God.

That's What Love Is, the second single, is a cool mid-tempo groove that explains that Jesus is the answer, More than any diamonds you can buy me/ I want a love that can't be measured by things/I want a perfect unconditional love/jesus is where you'll find unconditional love.  " The idea of true love has been so blurred by society’s mundane and selfish values that they’ve sold a lie to girls everywhere, and the saddest part is that the girls believe it," says Bonilla.  "I wanted them to see what true love looks like, and that it’s nothing like what they’ve seen or heard on TV or radio."

The up-beat title track, In Spite of Me, co-written by Bonilla, is filled with Christ-centered lyrics where the theme talks about a perfect God and an imperfect humanity, while the dance tune Give It Up will keep you moving and praising God.

You is a personal favorite of Michelle's. "It says everything I feel when I just can’t seem to get it together. When my world is going crazy I don’t need nobody else I need You.”

Persevere is a Tina Turner/Skillet rock out song.  Bonilla says "the lyrics are very real and they talk about real life issues. It’s my way of saying hey, life is not simple it has its crazy moments but we will persevere through Christ Jesus.”

Other standout tracks include the beautiful ballads Eres El Rey(spanish for "You Are The King"), I Am, and My Story.

No stranger to the industry Bonilla has performed in the company of artists as Crystal Lewis, Nicole Mullen, Out Of Eden, and Papa San, and has been featured on Cross Movement’s Grammy and Dove nominated album “Higher Definition.”

Healing 4 Haiti is a collection of 15 songs from Christian music's leading artists and worship leaders and includes the anthem "Come Together Now (Music City Unites For Haiti)," penned by Michael W. Smith, Cindy Morgan and David Mullen and featuring a host artists. The songlist also includes tracks from Israel Houghton, DecembeRadio, Kari Jobe, The Afters, Hawk Nelson and many more plus an exclusive version of Jared Anderson's new song, "Carry Me."

Healing 4 Haiti will be released by Integrity Music at iTunes on Tuesday, March 2 with a retail release slated for March 16. A minimum of $5.00 per copy of the album sold will be donated to Haiti earthquake relief. The donations will be used to provide clean water, shelter, medical care and other critical aid from Samaritan's Purse. It will also support the work of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association's Rapid Response Team, which had chaplains on the ground within 24 hours of the earthquake providing emotional and spiritual comfort to survivors. Additionally, net proceeds from "Come Together Now (Music City Unites for Haiti)" will go to the Haiti relief efforts of Samaritan's Purse and the American Red Cross.

"Every artist and every individual who can use their talent and ability to shed light on those in need, when it's all added together, it makes a huge difference," says Franklin Graham, president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association/Samaritan's Purse. "My prayer is that God will use Healing 4 Haiti to touch the hearts of this nation to give generously to the suffering people of Haiti."

"What I saw while in Haiti is something we must keep in front of the minds and hearts of Americans," adds GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Michael W. Smith.  "The recovery efforts are going to take a long, long time so we want to do anything we can to raise awareness and to continue to support organizations doing good work in Haiti."
