"whispering HOPE 5" by whispering HOPE: Reflecting on the Nativity Story


whispering HOPE - whispering HOPE 5

This week we're blessed with a fresh take on the nativity story with the album "whispering HOPE 5", the latest release by whispering HOPE. This album takes us on a reflective journey through the nativity story, offering us insights from the perspectives of the Israelites, Mary, Joseph, the Angels, and the Shepherds. I'll briefly introduce each of the tracks, and I encourage you to check out the lyrics to really grasp the meaning and intent of each song.

  • "The Coming Light" sets the tone by celebrating Jesus as the Light of the world. This song not only speaks of His arrival but also encourages us to find hope and peace through His presence, and let Him guide us throughout our lives, including our darkest moments.

  • "Magnify" gives us a modern take on Mary’s Magnificat. The takeaway is to celebrate God's endless mercy and faithfulness, and it encourages us to praise God's name with gratitude and in recognition of everything He has done.

  • The song "Chosen to Believe" looks at Joseph’s quiet strength and unwavering faith. The song reminds us how important it is to trust and obey God's call, even when we aren't able to seek the full picture, especially when we're facing uncertainties.

  • The "Heaven Rejoices" echoes with the angels' song of peace that we find in Luke’s gospel. It's a triumphant song that encourages us to join the heavenly celebration of Christ's birth, as well as the peace and mercy He brings to the world... to each of us.

  • The last song on the album is called "Go Tell the World." This is an energetic call to action, taking the shepherds’ response to the good news as an example. Its joyful, beat-driven melody reminds us to spread the story of Christ’s birth, sharing the gospel with cheer during the Christmas season and after.

Don’t miss out on whispering HOPE's fresh take on these traditional themes. The album is available for streaming on all of the major platforms. You can also sign up for their email list so you can be one of the first to get the details about their latest releases and updates!

"A Love Song" by Seek and Surrender: The Three-Stranded Covenant

(By Jasper Tan) We always see people say "I love you" to someone, professing their love to that significant other. But we often see how a marriage united by love easily shreds to tatters, and we ask ourselves, "Why?" Where did it all go wrong? How did something joined together by love easily get broken and be accepted as "falling out of love"? But the biggest thought that comes to mind while listening to Seek and Surrender's latest song, "A Love Song," is: do we really understand what it feels like to love? In Seek and Surrender's song, there are countless lines in which the singer professes his love to his bride. It seeks to highlight the sincerity of his love, the magnanimity, the pureness. But in those lines, there's this line that we all should focus on —  "If Christ gave Himself for His bride, Oh, then I'll give myself for mine." Do we know how Christ gave himself for his bride (the Church)? He sacrificed himself w...

"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....

"Great White Throne Judgement" by whispering HOPE: The Final Rebellion

“Great White Throne Judgement” by whispering HOPE takes us to Revelation 20, and how the chaos of this world will come to an end. The lyrics begin with the release of Satan after a thousand years and his ultimate defeat, where “fire comes down from God above.” In other words, Satan’s rebellion is consumed by God’s fire… chaos is instantly met with God’s perfect order. This song reminds us that justice is inevitable. The bridge is about that awe-inspiring moment that will come when “earth and heaven fled away” and the dead stand before the throne. (That’s mind-blowing!!) The question we can ask ourselves is, why live in fear when you can walk in confidence? Choose life today! Recognize that you have the choice to align with truth, His truth, right here and now. Find your security in Christ! Above all, you don’t need to wait for the books to be opened to ask where you stand. May this song inspire you to live faithfully and with confidence that the Judge is righteous eternally. His grac...
