Fia Nyxx's "Way Maker" - Finding God Through Music


Fia Nyxx embraces a theatrical approach to her music and is known for her “brilliantly experimental clash of genres”. Nyxx is evolving from her former pop-artist image to Christian music. From the moment you hear her soulful vocals, you’ll be reminded of artists such as Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Toni Braxton.

Fia Nyxx - Way Maker (Leeland  Cover)

Making music has always been a spiritual experience for Nyxx, one that defies genres. She released a Contemporary Worship EP, called “From The Mountain”, a four-song collection that has helped her during a challenging year of self-reflection, mental health struggles, and doubts about her faith.

One of the songs on this EP is a cover of the song “Way Maker”, and despite the fact that this song has been covered by quite a few artists, this is a rendition that clearly distinguishes itself from other covers.

Working alongside producer Sam J. Garfield, Nyxx crafted a version of “Way Maker” that’s both unique and preserves the original spirit of the song. It’s got five-part harmonies, jazzy horn sections, and lo-fi elements. But the true magic lies in Nyxx’s powerful vocals and the unmistakable feeling that this was a ‘God moment.’ “You are here, moving in our midst. I worship You, I worship You,” she sings, and you can hear in her voice that she means every word.

Nyxx has long embraced her belief in a higher power, often describing the “channeling” she feels while performing, writing music, and creating art. She speaks openly about her conviction that we come to God as we are: spiritual, powerful, colorful, open-minded, non-judgmental, free to love who we choose to love and be who we choose to be. As real, flawed human beings, we are capable of profound love from God and for each other.

As with each of the tracks on her EP, this song is filled with passion, contemplation, and hope, offering you a profound worship experience.

'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?

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)": A Reminder of God's Faithfulness

Avery Stafford's "Manna (Come on Down)" is a beautiful reminder that God never forgets us. The song was inspired by Avery's own journey of faith. He remembers how excited he felt as a 7-year-old standing in front of a church in San Jose, CA, when he said "yes" to Jesus. Avery has that same fire and excitement for God's constant presence and provision today.  The song's title is a nod to a youth rally called Mannafest, emphasizing that God continues to provide for us amidst life's challenges, just as He provided manna in the wilderness. God reigns, even though hopelessness, loneliness, and disappointments constantly plague our world. The acts and consequences of people's choices can distract our focus from God. It is through lyrics like "Remind me, Lord, just why I need You living in my dreams" and "Spirit, come on down," that Avery calls us to remember God's unending faithfulness and reignite our initial love and de...
