There are days when it feels like you're taking two steps forward only to take three steps back. That's the heartbeat of '100X' (100 times) by Red Letter Society. This rendition was recorded Live, at The Heights. The lyrics and melody is a 3-in-1 song 😀, as in a prayer, confession, and a declaration rolled into one. I love the raw energy and authenticity of this song, and believe it will draw you into a moment of self-reflection and worship.  '100X' is about your walks with God - those moments of doubt where you start to question if He loves you, especially when you feel that you're at your lowest. If you were to take away only one message from this song, I pray it would be: 'Yes, God's grace still covers you, and He is there to help you back up each time you fall.' How comforting is that? I see each verse as an invitation to walk in His ways, to number your days, and most importantly, to trust in His grace - even when doubt tries to cloud your

'I'm With You - Live' by We Are Compass Worship reminds you that in Jesus, you're never lost, broken, or alone. Those harmful whispers of inadequacy are replaced by the affirmations in this song, that your true identity is in Christ alone. Every verse sings about the truths of being found, whole, and loved in His presence. There's a powerful message waiting for you. It's about looking beyond your failures, and embracing the freedom and security that comes from being His. You're encouraged to shift your focus to the joyful reality of being forgiven, secure, and absolutely cherished by Jesus. That is what makes this song an anthem for anybody who feels unworthy or alone, and is in need of a gentle reminder they can always find the strength to rise above their doubts in His love. Yes, you 'can' find it, but if you're not looking in the right places… you're not going to find it. So this song is also a call to action… start looking, and look to Je

Dive into 'Hope of Heaven' by Coming Kingdom and experience a call to roar our praises, just like the songwriter was inspired after witnessing transformed lives in Hong Kong. This song is an anthem that urges you to look beyond the horizon to Jesus, the King of Glory, our beacon of hope. Imagine being so moved, so utterly convinced of Jesus' victory and love, that your worship pours out uncontrollably. That's the essence of 'Hope of Heaven.' It celebrates Jesus as our living, breathing hope for today and tomorrow. Through our trials and joys, this song reminds us that Jesus conquered sin and death, not as a distant deity, but as a Savior intimately involved in our lives. The song declares His power and describes the freedom we have thanks to His sacrifice. Because it is in Him that we may live fully and are freed of any chains that bind us. So, turn up the volume on this song, let it fill your room, and join the chorus of praises to the One who sits on the thron

Ruth A. Harris' song 'Run To Me,' is a gentle musical embrace that mirrors the sanctuary of understanding and compassion we find in Jesus. With her very first solo release of 2024, Ruth ventures into what it means to struggle in silence, and offers a hand to those of us who've felt so broken that they couldn't even whisper their hardships.  'Run To Me' is so relatable, as if Ruth knows that there are times when the weight of the world can be too much. She wraps her words around you and reminds you that you're not on this path alone. It's not just about the lows. Ruth encourages you to look beyond the storm, reassuring you that there is a sunrise waiting for you on the other side.  'Run To Me' is a gentle nudge back to Jesus' open arms. There is always a way back to hope, healing, and His love, no matter how far you've gone off track or how lost you feel.  'Run To Me' is a song that will make you feel like you're getting a

As I listen to 'Shadow of the Cross' by Jennifer Graf, I am reminded how much Jesus loves us, so much that He gave up His life so we would be free and victorious. It's easy to picture Jesus on the cross, but yet it is so difficult to comprehend that He would willingly take on all of the pain and suffering that should have been ours. This song beautifully captures the essence of what it means to be a Christian - a call to lay down your burdens and find freedom in the arms of Jesus. It's about remembering that, no matter what we face, we're not alone. Jesus bore the ultimate agony, a crown of humility pressed into His brow, so that we could live in victory. Jennifer invites you to reflect on this amazing love story. With every note, she reminds us that our debt has been erased and our chains broken; all because Jesus willingly gave His life for us.  I recommend listening to this song. It's not just an enjoyable song; it also has an important message to share. It w

In Nate Goering's 'Dad Song', Nate pays tribute to fathers, from fathers and grandfathers (and/or people that have embraced and loved us like a father would/should) to a Heavenly Father. Nate shares how he struggled to capture the full depth of his feelings for his dad in this song, and I think that is a challenge we all face: how can we express the inexpressible? How do we find the right words to express the love and gratitude we have for those who've shaped us?  As you listen to 'Dad Song', you realize that it isn't just about Nate and his dad. It's about us. It's about the tidbits of wisdom that have been passed on to us, the support we've received to reach the milestones in our lives, and the unconditional love that guides us. This song reflects the many ways that love and life lessons flow through us, from the advice on turning a screw to the embrace that says 'you're found.' It's in the corny jokes we can't help but laug

Have you ever felt so down and out that the only words you could muster in prayer were a simple, 'God, I need You'? That is the key message behind Olly Kiff's song, 'I Need You.' Coming from deep desperation, a cry for God to be with you in your darkest of times. Possibly the lyrics are echoing your own need for the God who holds everything in His mighty hands.  This song is more like the words of a prayer that Olly is sharing with us. It's a reminder that it's perfectly fine if we don't know what to do next, because we have a Heavenly Father who's got us. He has been holding us in the past, present, and will continue to hold us in future, caring for us in ways we can't even begin to understand. I believe 'I Need You' isn't just Olly's heart that is being laid bare; it's the echo of many souls (maybe even yours), a song that lovingly wraps around our struggles and whispers, 'You're not alone.'  So, take a moment, s
