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!

(Related scripture: Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8; 1 Peter 3:15)

"Time in Your Presence" by Austin J. Smith: Why Wasting Time With God Is Never a Waste

Could “wasting time” be the greatest worship? Austin J. Smith wrote “Time in Your Presence” around a simple but countercultural idea: “love doesn’t calculate” . We live in a world that is obsessed with output — checklists, side-hustles, proving what we are worth through who we're seen with and what we accomplish. So what happens when you bring that same mindset into your relationship with God? Austin sums up the answer in a single, defiant line: “I’ll waste my time in Your presence.” Not because sitting with God earns us anything. “Earning” isn’t required by God.  The lyrics elaborate on that tension. “The world just might think I’m foolish,” Austin sings, “to waste my whole life on you.” ‘Foolish’ by whose measure and which definition? Our culture rewards busyness and prestige, but it’s not capable of measuring the benefit of a quiet moment with your Creator. Austin calls God his “morning star” and “golden hour”  — the beautiful moments of the day that don’t need justification...

"Not Far From Us" by Divine Vibes: Stop Searching. Start Reaching.

The search can end right now. The Apostle Paul stood in Athens surrounded by altars and idols — a city full of people reaching toward something they couldn’t name. Among all their shrines, Paul spotted one inscription: “To an unknown God.” That moment became the opening of one of the most powerful declarations in Scripture. The people were already searching. They just didn’t know who they were searching for. “Not Far From Us” is a collaboration between Divine Vibes and House of Purpose. The track takes that same scene and sets it to Afro House and cinematic electronic music. Created directly from Acts 17, the lyrics move like Paul’s speech itself — from observation to revelation. “I found an altar to an unknown God // This God whom you worship without knowing // This is the one I’m telling you about.” Divine Vibes doesn’t just retell the story… he pulls you right into it. What Paul told the Athenians next also applies to each of us today: “Yet he is actually not far from each one of ...

"Great Lord" by Sarah Emerson: When Mountains Teach You to Worship

Can mountains make you want to worship? Sarah Emerson wrote “Great Lord” while on a trip up in Leavenworth, Washington, surrounded by beautiful mountains. She was craving a song that she could shout from the rooftops about how great God is! That’s where this song was born — not in a studio, but looking up to something that is too big to ignore. The lyrics open with an acknowledgement: “Great is the name of the Lord, powerful is His hand.” No qualifiers. No hedging. Just stating a fact. Then the song widens its lens. “Let every mountain, every valley, speak of all Your majesty.” Suddenly it’s not just Sarah praising His majesty — it’s all of creation praising Him, “You are Great, Lord.” Reflect for a moment on your own life. Where do you feel small? Where do circumstances seem too tangled to fix? The song addresses that tension, “Nothing’s impossible, You’re making all things new… Is there anything You can’t do?” In Isaiah 55:12 we read, “the mountains and the hills before you shall b...
