'Leave The Past Behind' by The James Jennings Project: Embrace New Beginnings


The James Jennings Project has given us a gem with his newest song, 'Leave The Past Behind.' It's a heartfelt tune from the album 'Hitchhiking On A Narrow Road,' driven by acoustic guitar and a touch of piano that reminds you of those classic Neil Young and Steely Dan vibes. 

The James Jennings Project - Leave The Past BehindJennings wrote this song while he was going through some disappointments. It's meant to remind us that while our experiences shape us, we still decide if the past can continue to hold us back. We've all faced setbacks - disappointments, shame, and mistreatment. This song acknowledges those feelings completely, and, at the same time, quickly turns the corner and encourages us to move forward. 

The lyrics sing to the pain in your heart, saying, 'Leave the past behind, throw away the chains that hold you back.' It's in our nature to hang onto the past, and it's in our power to let go of everything that binds us, just like it's in our power to ask God to help us let go. Let go, and 'Walk into the light. Open up your eyes and leave the darkness.'

The song is has so many encouragements, like this message: 'Why not take a chance? You will never know until you try it. He won't let you down. You gotta let go, gotta leave the past behind.' It's like James is next to you to give you the nudge you need to embrace the new life that God has waiting for you. 

I really encourage you to sit down, put on your headphones, and listen to 'Leave The Past Behind.' It's a song that doesn't just entertain - it uplifts and inspires.

"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....
