'Worship Through It' by Tasha Layton: Singing Praises in the Storm

Tasha Layton's latest hit, 'Worship Through It' has already received so many streams, and possibly you have already heard it on the radio. This song is such a heart-stirring encouragement, urging us to remain steadfast in our praises to God, especially when the going gets tough. Hence the song title: 'Worship Through It'. The essence is simple, but still so challenging… worship while you are going through tough times, when He can still help you through it all, and worship when all is well.  Tasha shares that she felt so much joy while bringing this project to life, and she hopes it will bless many. The song reminds us of God's ongoing faithfulness and encourages us to look beyond our troubles. Entrust your troubles into His capable hands.  My favorite part of the lyrics is Tasha's bold declaration of faith : 'I know my God can do it, so I'm gonna worship through it' . This song is about making a choice to see your struggles through the lens of Go

'Tears This Side of Eden' by Perry LaHaie – A Journey Through Tears to Hope

Perry LaHaie releases 'Tears This Side of Eden'. This song has a message that, despite knowing that Jesus loves you and has planted kingdom dreams in you to pursue, you may still have experienced so much shame, regret, and depression that you know there will be a lot of tears in the journey. Not just any tears; Perry is talking about the kind that stains the journey - tears born from regret and sorrow, and still so mixed with joy, as the Spirit floods you with love. What makes this song so relevant is that Perry LaHaie has walked this path and poured his heart into 'Tears This Side of Eden.' This song is Perry's story, and possibly it's your story as well. You see, Perry knew the struggles of shame and the burden of sorrow, but he also knew something far greater - the hope that our Savior gives. 'Tear This Side of Eden' was born out of the valleys and peaks of life. It's a reminder that even though you may be weeping on this journey, you are never al

'Living Sacrifice' by Jeremy Bilson: A Melodic Offering of Our Soul

'Living Sacrifice' by Jeremy Bilson is a song with a very deep message. When you really listen to the lyrics and start reflecting on them, this really gets you thinking about the meaning of sacrifice, and how this applies to us. It starts off with encouraging us to lay down every fear and every past failure at the foot of the cross. That's the first invitation Jeremy extends in these lyrics. Sure, this song is great to sing along to, and it encourages living out the lyrics on a Monday morning or in the quiet of a Thursday night, laying everything down for the One who gave is all for us.  The lyrics draw you into a conversation with God, with a promise to live your life as a tribute to His grace. To sing about becoming part of His family, embracing the freedom that only He can provide, and letting His truth change you. This song celebrates that your story is rewritten in God (or will be rewritten by God if you choose to accept Him into your life).  So, sing it out, 'Jesu

'Our Prayer' by The Praise Project: Echoes of Community and Faith in Music

“Our Prayer” by The Praise Project is about the feeling can sometimes have that following God’s path can feel like a mountain too steep. The song starts with a plea for strength to our Heavenly Father, gradually changes the focus into seeking wisdom and forgiveness, and wraps it up with a celebration of His goodness and faithfulness. The chorus confirms our faith in God’s perfect design and His rule over everything. What a powerful reminder that in every challenge or decision we face, God’s ways are always steadfast and true!

'Anxious Mind' by Vivid Era: Embracing God’s Best in the Storms of Life

Vivid Era is back with a new song called: 'Anxious Mind'. A song based on Hebrews 4:12 and 1 Thessalonians 2:13, finds its way through the chaos to remind you where true peace is found.  Let's be honest here… we all face situations from time to time where feelings of panic chase peace away. In just one unguarded moment, that feeling of peace can be gone. Enter 'Anxious Mind'. A song that reminds you how to get your focus back to the most important thing in life - Jesus and His Word.  The song isn't only about getting our focus back on track, it also emphasizes the importance of applying the spiritual wisdom and discernment that we have received. We're taken back to the roots of our faith, to depend more on God's Word than on our own flawed way of thinking. Depending on God's Word also means that we need to read it, firsthand and not have it repeated by others in their own words with their own emphasis and highlights.  So go ahead and give 'Anxiou
