'To Love And To Hold' by Mubanga Chipimo: Echoes of Eden in Melody


'To Love And To Hold' by Mubanga Chipimo is a song that boosts your faith and also comforts your spirit. It's a song that reaches out and wraps its melody around your heart, speaking of love and eternal commitment. A love that is as pure as the first love in Eden and as robust as God's love for His creation.

Mubanga Chipimo - To Love And To HoldThink about a love that is so strong that it is etched into our DNA from the very beginning. That's the kind of love that Mubanga Chipimo sings about. The song paints a picture of Adam's awe when he looked at Eve for the first time. A love that is so natural and divinely inspired that it mirrors the love Christ has for His church. Don't you think it's beautiful? How something as original as the act of creation itself can be echoed in the humble chords of an acoustic guitar, somewhere in the quiet corner of our modern lives.

As you listen, you can picture yourself walking through that garden of commitment and thinking about the selfless love that holds you tight in both good and bad times. It's a reminder of God's love, which binds two hearts together into one. The song isn't just for married people; it's for everyone who has ever loved, hoped, or believed that God was always there.

So, start the music and let the sounds fill the room. It will touch your heart with a sacred embrace. While whispering vows or praying in quiet, Chipimo captures the very core of what it means to love as God intended: truly, passionately, and fully.

(Related scripture: Genesis 2:18, 22-24; Ephesians 5:25-27; 1 Corinthians 13:4-7)

"Thankful" by Lowen: The Practice of Being Thankful

Lowen's "Thankful" isn't one of those typical feel-good gratitude songs. Life is good most of the time… and even when it hurts, there's often something quietly waiting inside the pain, like a lesson, a softening, or a deeper understanding. Lowen found inspiration for this song in what Stephen Colbert once said, "… he learned to love the thing he most wished had never happened, and that simply being here is a gift. Gratitude means holding all of it, not just the easy parts."   The lyrics open with a warm anchor: "Every day that I wake, I just feel so thankful." We're encouraged not to flinch from the messy middle. This is not about ignoring life's quakes! Lowen admits, "honesty is telling me I need space" when the world feels unsteady. In other words, the gratitude that Lowen sings about isn't about forcing a smile through pain — it's about meeting every moment (including the hard moments) with presence, care, and res...

"He Must Increase" by Rorie: Humbling ourselves in God’s presence

Inspired by the verses John 3:30, Philippians 3:7–8, and John 10:27, Rorie releases "He Must Increase", a beautiful song that reminds us of the sound of CCM from the 2000s, easily the era when the rise of CCM was at its peak. Rorie sings the song with earnestness as she opens the lines "The seasons change and we are aging, But You alone are God of the ages." You'll immediately know that this song is putting God front and center. There's a certain aspect of the song that clearly wants to remind us that God will always be bigger than us. That his glory and mercy will always shine through, and we are mere travelers in the world that he built. Everything emanates from him, and we cannot claim to be bigger than God.  It's a humbling reminder that what we have, what we attained, it all comes as a blessing that He has gifted to us. We cannot claim that it is our works that brought us the joys and triumphs. These gifts and accomplishments are nothing without Hi...

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....
