Christian songs provide such a special way to praise and worship God. Music can set the atmosphere and usher us into the holy presence of Jesus. There’s just something about a room, car or even headphones/airpods filled with the sound of worship. It prepares our hearts and emotions and sets our focus on Him. Songs…

A Song for When… You Need Something to Hold On To
My church often sings a song called “Yet Not I but Through Christ in Me.” I’m not sure who originally recorded this song, but I know it’s been covered by many different musicians and groups throughout the years. I love Selah’s version! Whenever we sing it in church, it’s a certain phrase that stirs up…
A Song for When… You Want to Make Christmas Personal
It’s Christmastime! There’s nothing like this time of year. Something feels a little different… Something magical is in the air. People are often more generous, more helpful, and more others-focused. It’s interesting for a believer to stop and think about the fact that even people who aren’t Jesus followers love and celebrate Christmas. From a…
A Song for When… You Need Shelter From Life’s Storms
Sometimes we have days when it feels like the world is just coming at us from all angles. A friend of mine felt like this the other day… Her own car was already broken down, so she was borrowing her son’s car. Then, of course, that car broke down, and she had to call a…
A Song for When… You Remember Life is Short
Well, the latest song I’ve gotten hooked on is coming from VOUS Worship. It’s called, “One Day.” Listen to this fun song just once, and I promise you’ll have the catchy chorus delightfully stuck in your head for the rest of the day. But no matter how fun, catchy and delightful the melody is, the…
A Song for When… You Need Confidence in God’s Power
I just love it when a song that I’ve known for a long time suddenly hits me in a new way. Have you had that happen before? You’ve listened to it many times, but this time a line sticks out so far it seems to cut through you like a knife. And all of a…
A Song for When… Life is Hard and Painful
The Christian life is not one free from trouble, pain, struggle, heartbreak and emptiness. Once a person has chosen to put his/her trust in Jesus, that doesn’t mean life is only butterflies and rainbows from that point forward. The world is full of sin and brokenness that impacts people daily, and everybody deals with more…
A Song for When… You Want Peace and Unity
A big picture look at the world today doesn’t necessarily radiate immediate vibes of peace, unity and togetherness. We see and experience divisiveness in families, workplaces, culture, church denominations, comment sections on social media, physical warzones, and of course, political arenas. And the list goes on. It can be exhausting, can’t it? Although God made…
A Song for When… You Want to be All Things for All People
A Song for When… You Want to be All Things for All People Be careful how you live; you may be the only Bible some people will ever read. -William Thoms Have you heard this quote before? It’s such a good one! Anytime I come across it, it reminds me of how important it is…
A Song for When… You Want to Follow Jesus
Sometimes I listen to an entire song just for one particular verse, chorus or bridge that I love. There might even be one single line that resonates in my heart, and I’ll listen to the song over and over simply to hear, sing and meditate on that one line! Of course, that doesn’t mean the…
