Stoned Loner has released a Christian Hip Hop track called 'Mercy'.
Stoned Loner shares: "The story is more just about my life and the journey God has taken me on to finally see His light. I was depressed for years, and I wanted to end this life a few times. But God was in me somewhere, even though I was unsure who or what it was. And He told me to hold on and give it time.
What I ultimately learned by holding on is that life is about perspective. And my perspective all those years was one of negativity. I saw the world as unsafe, deceitful, manipulative, and hopeless. And it's not necessarily that I was wrong. My perspective was my reality. But I realized that I could change my perspective, and therefore also change my reality. So I began to see life as hopeful. I began to see people as trustworthy. I started believing that I could do whatever I want. And then I didn't see life as stressful anymore. I didn't see it as depressing. I saw it as an opportunity. I saw it as a gift. And that's God's mercy. He renews your mind and shows you that this world is a place of wonder, not just chaos. We have to choose life, and then we can finally live."

It is a compelling call to immerse oneself in the validation and glory gifted by Jesus, our Savior. As the lyrics cascade from her voice, they etch a poignant, spiritual journey. 'Blessed are those who run to Him...He won't forsake them' she sings, illustrating the divine promise that we were never meant to walk our paths alone.

Josh Wright's new song, 'The Fall,' is about the dark and heavy moments that often come with loss, grief, and sin. Most of us have been there, feeling a deep sense of guilt and shame. But that is not where God wants us to linger! Yes, it's important to understand the consequences of our actions, but there is also a next chapter. God wants us to 'get up' and 'keep going.' Josh beautifully sings about this next chapter in 'The Fall.' With lyrics like, 'I didn't want the valley, I didn't want the dark,' you can feel the pain and reluctance that Josh experienced. He continues, 'Nobody wants to stumble or ever hit the ground. Nobody wants to have to hurt for healing to be found.' Josh emphasizes that although we're not looking for pain, it does play an important part in understanding God's love. If there is no contrast, e.g., no pain, then how will we be able to appreciate God's love and plan for us? This is how
Are you tired of feeling inadequate and alone in your struggles? Have a look at Sarah Kroger's 'Belovedness,' a powerful ballad that reminds us of our worth as children of God. Initially released on Kroger's sophomore album, 'Light,' during the peak of a global healthcare crisis, 'Belovedness' quickly found a following among those battling mental health challenges. The revisited live version, recorded in a barn-turned-studio in the UK countryside, offers a sweet, intimate take on the song, featuring Northern Irish singer-songwriter Nathan Jess on vocals. Kroger wrote the song during a period of personal growth, as she discovered the truth of her identity through reading Henri Nouwen's 'Life of The Beloved.' The lyrics remind us to let go of our past mistakes and the lies we've been told, and to embrace the truth of our belovedness. This song is not only for the Christian community, it is also for anyone struggling with their identity, loo
