Arcadia Worship's 'Overflows (Live)': A River of Renewal


You've got to listen to Arcadia Worship's new song, 'Overflows (Live).' It's a heartfelt plea for God to enter our life, heal the brokenness in our heart (and the world around us), and shape us. Just like rivers can shape rocks and canyons, and water can find its way through the barricades. The lyrics call for a divine restoration and witnessing the impact of God's love and justice. 

Arcadia Worship - Overflows (Live)The opening lines, 'This world you created, this land that you gave us,' remind us that our lives are gifts, His gifts to us, a gift with a larger plan behind it. But, as imperfect as we are, 'Our sin has made dirty' the gift that was meant for beauty. The chorus is where you really feel the heartbeat of the song: 'Let your river run deep into our soul, carve a canyon into our heart of stone.' A reminder that we really need God's redeeming love to 'flood' / saturate every part of our life and the community around us. 

The live recording of 'Overflows' was made last March, and has already touched so many hearts. The band shares that they receive inquiries about the song almost every week, people eager to know more about the artist and where to find it. An official release of the song is a logical next step, and they hope that it will find its way into the hearts of listeners and encourage lives of worship & reflection outside of the church walls and Sunday services. 

May the plea in this song extend into your streets and homes, asking God to fill it with His justice and love until it overflows. And may this song encourage you to live a life that prayerfully reflects His image.

(Related scripture: Ezekiel 36:26; Amos 5:24; Isaiah 58:11)

"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....

'Spirit' by Alexander Reign: A Musical Prayer of Surrender

Alexander Reign's song 'Spirit' is a cry of the soul in trying times, seeking God's guidance and surrendering completely to Him, just as the psalmist cried out in Psalm 118:5. The lyrics capture the raw honesty of our struggles, and it is in this space that we admit that we cannot navigate life alone, but need Divine guidance. We often find ourselves at a crossroads, in a state of despair and confusion. We might identify with lyrics like 'It's hard to hide my flaws' . Reaching out to the Divine is an effective solution to these turbulent times, echoing the words, 'Spirit lead me / Cause you're all I want.' 'Spirit' is more than just a song; it's a testimony shared in the universal language of music, resonating with anyone seeking divine strength. Its verses encourage us to grow in faith and resilience by wearing God's armor in the face of life's challenges. We, too, are given the ability to shine His light within us, as the so...
