'Higher Ground' by Noah Hobson - Finding Hope on Higher Ground


'Higher Ground,' a song by Noah Hobson, is a beautiful song that focusses on Christ's sacrifice and God's endless grace. The lyrics were inspired by Luke 22:42, where Jesus asks the Father to 'take this cup from me.' When we think about that important moment in Gethsemane and how it relates to our own struggles and victories, we too can say, 'You took this cup and saved me from myself on higher ground.' 

Noah Hobson - Higher GroundAs you listen, you'll hear the sincerity of Noah in every line, speaking to everyone that is in need of a fresh start: 'I stand on higher ground, And that is where my hope is found. I am laying down what's proud, and now I'm found on higher ground.' These words aren't just song lyrics; they illustrate that Christ can give us new faith and ultimate freedom (if you invite Him into your life). 

'Higher Ground' strikes a chord with anyone that is struggling with their shortcomings, and shares a message of the redemption and transformation that we all may receive in Christ alone. So dive into this song, let the lyrics lead your way to 'higher ground.' May this song inspire to invite Christ into your life, and by doing so, find your place above sin and eternally wrapped in God's everlasting grace.

(Related scripture: Luke 22:42, Romans 5:8, Isaiah 55:8-9, 2 Corinthians 5:17)

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Navigating Life with Faith and Friends

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson explores one of the Greek words for love. This song focuses on "phileo" (friendship) and its vital role in life's storms. "Phileo" translates to love that is characterized by affection, fondness, and friendship. It's a warm, tender, and affectionate bond, often seen between friends, siblings, or within a community. It's more about the natural affection we have for those who are close to us.  Chelsea wrote this song when she returned home after living in Cambodia for two years. Faith brought her to Cambodia, sustained her there, and guided her back, but the journey left her feeling like "a little boat" lost in raging seas. At times we may feel like, "I'm drowning, drowning treading water in the wind // I'm drowning, drowning I could use a friend." It's a cry for connection, a reminder that we all need someone to anchor us when fear starts to take over. The fears and lies tha...

"Turn to You" by Mike Cunningham: A Veterinarian's Worship Journey

Mike Cunningham is a veterinarian from Ohio. He traded his country tunes for worship music after discovering God's call on his life. In this debut single, "Turn to You," Cunningham explores what it means to seek God in a world that is so clouded by chaos and lies. He boldly asks the question, "In a world so torn with darkness, can a miracle set us free?" Looking at the chaos and mess around us, a situation that makes life feel quite overwhelming for many, it's His miracle that truly gives us hope. Cunningham reminds us that Jesus isn't just a distant figure that once walked on water and healed the blind, He is there for you and walks by your side. He is ready to guide you (if you let Him), even through your darkest nights. When everything is shaking beneath your feet, He is the one that you can lean on. "You are the way, the truth, and the light," bringing the clarity that we desperately need in our lives today.  May this song turn your gaze ...
