"We Carry The Kingdom" by Isabel Maggie: Living as Ambassadors of God’s Love


Isabel Maggie's "We Carry The Kingdom" is a bold song about embracing our role as ambassadors of God's Kingdom in our daily lives. People around us watch what we say and do, as reflected in lyrics such as "We carry the kingdom in every step we take" and "Let's go tell the world of Jesus love and truth". We are called to shine His light, break chains, and share the gospel wherever we go. This doesn't mean knocking on doors; we all have our talents; it's about declaring who we are in Christ through our deeds and example. 

Isabel Maggie - We Carry The KingdomThe song was born out of Isabel's desire to remind us that we're not called to be undercover Christians. We have a higher calling. As she explains, when we carry the Kingdom, we do so with God's Spirit and strength, and that makes the impact of our message unstoppable. We have a powerful message to share about the hope and purpose we have found in Him, "We have a king that overcame the grave" and "He rewrites every story for a brand new start". We have a God who has a heart for the lost and heals "broken vessels to shine His light." 

A song backed by Scripture (Matthew 28:19–20, 2 Corinthians 5:20, Philippians 2:14–15), and challenges us to live boldly as Christ's ambassadors. May this song encourage you to step into your role as ambassador, and inspire you to move forward with confidence and joy.

(Related scripture: Matthew 28:19-20; 2 Corinthians 5:20; Philippians 2:14-15)

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society: Why This Song Unites the Church

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society is a Trinity-focused song that pulls you into worship. Written by Justin Tweito and Jordan West, the song calls us to return to the heart of our faith. The opening line, "How wonderful is the cross of Christ,"  draws us into praise.  The song invites us to repentance and faith, but more importantly, the lyrics magnify the Trinity: the Father's eternal plan, the Son's sacrifice, and the Spirit's ongoing work in us. The song celebrates how every part of God is involved in redeeming us!  Have you ever wondered how a song can feel so unifying? That's the beauty of this song! It calls us, the Church, to stand together in bold praise. Instead of focusing on what divides us, it points us upwards, looking to our God who is glorious in love, power, and purpose. It encourages us to see the love of the Father, the blood of the Son, and how it is applied by the Holy Spirit.  There's no abstract theology in this song… the ...

"Be Thou My Vision" by Son Francisco: Updating a Traditional Christian Hymn for the Modern Times.

Originally, "Be Thou My Vision" is a Christian Hymn that traces its roots to Ireland and Scotland. It is one of the most popular Christian Hymns in the United Kingdom. It has been interpreted multiple times by contemporary artists, mostly retrieving the Slane tune. I've heard the different versions of the song, most notably the one interpreted by contemporary artist Audrey Assad. But Son Francisco's version is a breath of fresh air. Composed and arranged as a ballad/lullaby, it evokes a Leonard Cohen-type song (though on the softer side of rock). I mean, there are really no replacements for the solemnity and the purity of the original hymnal version. But this is the type of arrangement that you can bring out to the secular world and transform the song into a more modern version. I love the subtlety of how Francisco attacks the opening lines of the song "Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my hear Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art…." It flows beautifully...

'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...
