"Heart of Worship" (cover) by Andrew Macdonald: Rediscover Pure Devotion


'Heart of Worship' was originally released by Matt Redman, and Andrew Macdonald has now released an interesting rendition of the song. This song invites you to strip away the distractions and refocus on what truly matters - Jesus. Inspired by Matt Redman's gentle and prayerful style, Andrew uses his signature voice and feel for details to give this song a new flavor that deserves a listen. 

Andrew Macdonald - Heart of WorshipThe opening lines, 'When the music fades and all is stripped away, and I simply come,' setting the tone, reminding you that it is all about the pure, unmodified you, and your focus on facing our Lord. Andrew shares that he felt that this song really fits well with the overall theme of his album 'Heart, Soul, Mind & Strength,' which is all about worship and the love of God above everything else. 

'When I recorded it,' Andrew shares, ''I' was very present in the moment, and I hope that comes out.' You can really feel Andrew's dedication while he's singing lines like, 'I'll bring You more than a song, for a song in itself is not what You have required. You search much deeper within… You're looking into my heart.' 

Every time you listen to this song, it's a gentle reminder to return to the core of your faith. It's all about Jesus. In today's busy world, we often get caught up in rituals and routines, but this song calls us back to sincere and heartfelt worship, bringing Jesus into every part of our lives. 'I'm coming back to the heart of worship, and it's all about You, Jesus.' 

Go ahead and give it a listen. May Andrew Macdonald's rendition of 'Heart of Worship' guide you to a place of genuine devotion. You'll find peace and renewed faith in this song. Enjoy!

Haddon’s ‘In Your Arms’: Finding New Life in Christ

Haddon's song "In Your Arms" does a beautiful job of describing challenges that many of us know all too well. Based on Romans 8:6, Haddon sings about his own battle with sin and how Christ helped him overcome. For many years, Haddon found himself stuck in a cycle of self-destructive habits and sin.

As Haddon shares: "So through fire and water, whatever the trial may b...
