Cindy Clark's "Good Shepherd (Psalm 23)" - An Invitation to Experience God's Loving Rescue


Music can be such a beautiful sanctuary when life feels dark and without hope. That's how Cindy Clark uses music. When she is fighting depression, pain, and loss, she finds peace behind the piano. It's a place where Jesus places melodies in her heart so she can sing His word into her life. This didn't 'just' happen… God intervened! 

Cindy Clark - Good Shepherd (Psalm 23)Good Shepherd (Psalm 23) is her 8th release, but it is the first song of many written that led Cindy out of her own "valley of the shadow of death." Cindy shares that while she was watching Netflix one night, she began to hear a melody in her mind, and she couldn't escape it. This melody in her head was the start of an amazing change in her life! 

Cindy has a piano, and at that time she hadn't touched the keys of the piano or sang a song for several years. As a result of this melody in her head, she went over to her piano. This melody was written on the spot, but it took a few months (and time spent in prayer) for the lyrics to come. God spoke to her heart so clearly one day, "Go and sing Psalm 23!", that she opened the scriptures and the song was complete. 

Psalm 23 reminds us of God's comforting presence. "The Lord is my shepherd and I lack nothing," Cindy sings, and if you're familiar with Psalm 23, it's easy to start seeing green pastures and quiet waters in your mind. With God by our side, guiding and comforting us, there is no room for fear, even in life's darkest valleys. Cindy also sings of God's goodness, love, and faithfulness that follow us each and every day. 

Cindy reminds us of God's promise to all who follow Him, that we may dwell in His house forever. It's His promise to all who embrace Him as their Shepherd. May Cindy's song invite you to experience this divine reassurance for yourself. Enjoy!

'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...

"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 ...

Riley Clemmons - Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix (CCM)

Riley Clemmons has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix. The song 'Inside My Head' was born out of a season of pain and healing. As a result, the song has a way of speaking about life's difficulties that is accessible and relatable to everyone.  "As I was writing and dreaming up this record, "says Riley, "there was never a plan to create anything but honest music, born from hurting, growing, and healing. I collected songs for this body of work much like I collected every experience I found myself in the middle of over the past couple of years... the highs & lows, the conversations with God, the questions about my identity, the heartbreak, and the healing." Although the music addresses life's hurts, it does much more than that. The trials of life, according to Clemmons, are ordained by God so we can draw close to him. "The thread that began to connect them all quickly became the idea tha...
