'Where Breakthrough Starts' by Maria Segerholm and Ed Marl: Finding Hope in Harmony


Maria Segerholm and Ed Marl bring a song that came to Maria during a dream last May. The song is called 'Where Breakthrough Starts.' Maria recalls that she could only remember parts of the melody when she woke up, and that she was singing the song as a duet with a man. She quickly got up and recorded a voice memo of what she remembered and was able to finish the song a couple days later. 

Maria Segerholm ft. Ed Marl - Where Breakthrough StartsMaria shares that she wanted this song to be a proclamation of hope in the midst of struggle, and emphasize that God already knows our concerns, before we even share them with Him (Matthew 6:8). 'Down on my knees, and I can't find the words, I know You know my concerns,' He is already attuned to every silent prayer and unshed tear. 

'Here in Your presence, is where breakthrough starts,' reminding us where true change starts, that God has the power to create 'rivers in deserts' (Isaiah 43:19), and bring peace through even a gentle breeze (1 Kings 19:12). Our God delivers us from fear (Psalm 34:4). 

We often ask God for breakthrough, and Maria felt that God was giving her the powerful realization that a breakthrough starts in His presence, at His feet. He was working then, He is working now, and He'll do it again (Joshua 23:8). That is a promise that you can count on! 

When God is part of your life, you won't be travelling through your valleys alone! It is at His feet that breakthrough starts. So, go ahead and turn up the volume, close your eyes, and let 'Where Breakthrough Starts' ignite a fire of faith in your heart. May this song encourage and guide you on your journey to Him, where He will bless you with a breakthrough that brings eternal joy and peace.

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

'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...

"How Many Times" by Ben Jero: Falling and Being Caught

Do you feel like you’ve fallen too many times to still be worthy of God’s love? If that is the case, then Ben Jero’s song “How Many Times” carries an important message for you! The song opens with three big questions: “How many times can I fall and you catch me again? // How many sins are too great to not love me again? // How many ways can I go away from your presence?” ** Spoiler alert !! ** God’s love for us is never dependent on what we do! Seriously! It doesn’t matter how far we wander from His presence or how many mistakes we make, God remains faithful. His door is always open! All we need to do is call out to Him and come back home! Ben recalls the story of the prodigal son in his song, as a reminder that “There’s no sin that’s too great // No work that’s undone // Like the prodigal son // You never left me alone.” God doesn’t place any barrier between us and His love because of what we do or have done! God isn’t holding the door shut! Instead of turning away from us when we fa...
