Finding Courage in 'Trying to Spread the Life of Jesus' by Alex Trails: An Anthem for the Faithful


Alex Trails' song 'Trying to Spread the Life of Jesus' has an important message about sharing Christ's love and life with others. It talks about how hard it can be to tell others about your faith when some people don't want to hear it.

Alex Trails - Trying To Spread the Life of JesusAlex is an experienced artist from the UK, and he brings a unique view to Christian music. He self-taught himself everything he knows about music too! This song comes straight from Alex's heart. He wants to connect people who don't believe in God's never-ending love.

Talking about Jesus to non-believers isn't always easy. But Alex reminds us that Jesus is always there for everyone, supporting us wherever we go, and He opens doors when you least expect it. Sharing the gospel of Christ with others is a matter of not giving up, even when we feel discouraged. It's not about being pushy, but about being prepared to speak when prompted by the Spirit, and taking His lead on how we share it. Plant the seed through your words and example, letting Jesus guide you (and others) to touching hearts and helping the seedling grow.

Have a listen and let Alex's words inspire you to find your own way of sharing the gospel of Jesus with others. When the time is right, He will help you share His message of faith, hope, and love. You've got this - don't stop trying to spread the good news!

"In Victory" by Veanea: Praise Is How You Live in Victory

Jesus rose. That changes everything about today. Veanea had a simple goal: glorify the God of signs and wonders. What she didn’t expect was how quickly He would show up in the process.  Veanea had been working on a verse when a chorus for the song broke through —  “Amazing signs and wonders King!” She sang it over and over, sat down at the keys, and the bridge practically wrote itself. That evening, she prayed honestly, telling God she couldn’t write about His wonders without completely depending on Him. The next morning, on a train, she opened her Bible to Psalm 66. The verses seemed to sing right off the page in the exact melody she’d just received. She laughed, realizing that God had already answered.  That same joy runs through every line of the song. “You calmed the storm and stilled the wind and Your arm split the sea // So I can walk ahead in victory.” The God who parted waters for Israel is the same God who is walking with you through whatever it is that you’re carry...

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"Not Every Light Is Heaven" by whispering HOPE: How to Tell Real Light from Deception

How do you tell true Light from imitations? Something glittering always seems to promise more. Diamonds in the darkness, a glow on the horizon — your eyes move toward it before your mind catches up. That pull is what whispering HOPE is pointing out in this song: the way imitated brightness can masquerade as a blessing, but slowly draws you away from peace rather than into it. The lyrics describe an experience most of us will recognize. “Every glow looked like a promise, but it pulled me out of peace.” You’ve been there. A relationship, an opportunity, a version of success that sparkled just long enough to seem like the answer — but in reality it left emptiness behind. “Every spark without Your presence left a hollow in its place.” That emptiness is an important signal to pay attention to. The apostle Paul named this dynamic in 2 Corinthians 11:14 —  “Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” Deception rarely announces itself. It arrives dressed as an opportunity, appearing...
