"Why Are We Running?" by Daniel Joseph: A Heartfelt Call to Reconnect


Daniel Joseph’s new song, 'Why Are We Running?', is his first solo release. You might know him as the lead singer of Saved By Grace, but this solo release reveals his heart even more.

Daniel Joseph - Why Are We Running?Daniel is a pastor, a family man, urging us to stop running from God. His words cut the chase and come straight to the point: Why are we running, and why are we hiding, like we do? He calls out our human tendency to run from the One who loves us most.

Daniel reminds us that our decisions are the only reason why there is a distance between us and God. It's a wake-up call to realize how far we may have drifted in our relationship with Him. Daniel's repeats the message that God has been sharing through all ages —it's time to come back. It's time to make the right choices that lead us closer to God, and to serve and do what is right for His Kingdom.

Daniel's solo project demonstrates his willingness to break boundaries for a greater cause, to reach anyone who needs a boost to find their way back to God.

May 'Why Are We Running?' inspire you to rethink your paths and return to what’s truly important. Don’t miss out on this. Tune in, and feel the shift in your spirit.

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)": A Reminder of God's Faithfulness

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)" is a beautiful reminder that God never forgets us. The song was inspired by Avery's own journey of faith. He remembers how excited he felt as a 7-year-old standing in front of a church in San Jose, CA, when he said "yes" to Jesus. Avery has that same fire and excitement for God's constant presence and provision today.  The song's title is a nod to a youth rally called Mannafest, emphasizing that God continues to provide for us amidst life's challenges, just as He provided manna in the wilderness. God reigns, even though hopelessness, loneliness, and disappointments constantly plague our world. The acts and consequences of people's choices can distract our focus from God. It is through lyrics like "Remind me, Lord, just why I need You living in my dreams" and "Spirit, come on down," that Avery calls us to remember God's unending faithfulness and reignite our initial love and de...
