Zac Adams' "Joy In The Morning" - A Song of Hope and Resilience


Zac Adams released a beautiful cover of "Joy In The Morning". A song that has been incredibly meaningful to Zac and his team. In case you're not so familiar with the song, it's a reminder that even in life's darkest moments of our lives, keep your faith and trust that God will bring joy in the morning. It's a call to keep faith and trust that He is working for our good, even when we don't see it or understand how things will eventually work out for us. 

Zac Adams - Joy In The MorningOne of the reasons why Zac and the team connected with the song is the timing, it "popped-up" right when some of the team were facing personal and spiritual challenges. By performing "Joy in the Morning", the song also helped them get through their challenges, brought healing and a renewed sense of purpose and peace. They hope that this song will bring you that same sense of purpose and draw you closer to God. 

It's lyrics like "If it doesn't make sense right now, it will when it's over," that make the song so relatable. And still, we have a choice… hold onto your faith, accept that God's grace is always present, and that it will bring joy and restoration each morning. 

Zac shared that while they were recording the song, they noticed how singing it together brought such a lightness and energy to the team. It felt as if they were experiencing the joy that this song talks about in real-time! 

That is also what the team wishes for you: that this song will encourage you to hold on and grow your faith, know that God is truly with you, offering His guidance together with His promise that it will bring you joy and restoration in the morning. He's already standing at your door, ready to embrace and bless you… Will you let Him in?

(Related scripture: Psalm 30:5; Romans 8:28; Lamentations 3:22-23)

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"Fishers of Men" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Dropping Your Nets and Following Without Looking Back

Jesus doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.  “Fishers of Men” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was written back in July of 2024. It was the first Christian folk-style song that Tyler had ever written, and he had no idea at the time that God was going to pull him in that direction. It’s a favorite among his friends and family, and God recently laid it on his heart to share it with the rest of the world.  The song draws from the ordinary moments when Jesus walked up to fishermen and tax collectors and said two words that changed everything: “Follow Me.”   What strikes you in the lyrics is the honesty. “My friends thought I was crazy, and my folks just shook their heads.” Following Jesus has always looked strange from the outside. Peter left a fishing business. Matthew walked away from a lucrative government post. Neither of these men had it all figured out, but they simply responded to a call they couldn’t ignore.  Maybe you also know that feeling. The moment ...

"Forever" by Randy Wade: The God Who Has Always Been

The King who reigns forever also reigns over you. Before a single star burned in the sky, before the first mountain rose from the earth, God was. Worship Pastor and Contemporary Christian songwriter Rev. Randy Wade captures this in his song “Forever”, a song built on the unshakeable and eternal nature of God. “Before the mountains were lifted high, before the stars gave light to the sky, You O Lord have always been, the One with no beginning and no end.”   Randy wrote “Forever” to point our hearts toward Christ. The song pulls your gaze off the noise of daily life and fixes it on the One who exists outside of time. We have a God who doesn’t react to circumstances, but One who reigns above them. Revelation 1:8 declares, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” This scripture isn’t just a declaration; it can also be read as a personal promise. It is the same God who holds eternity in His hands who also holds your uncerta...
