John Allan - Born To Praise (CCM)

John Allan has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called A Highway Of Praise Is Filling The Room And Soaring To Heaven.
John shares: "In the winter of 2020, I found myself within a much-needed time of solitude. During these days I focused on God and spent countless hours writing. Through these writing sessions, the themes of “Born To Praise” came to life. There is something inside of my soul that I can’t shake. I am deeply fascinated with God and honored to live my life serving the one who gives me breath. “Born To Praise” came out of the idea that every second of my time here on Earth is praise to God. My goals are to glorify God through my life and to know him in a personal way. I was born to praise and so were you."

Lyrics:
You and i for a lifetime 
i am Yours 
drawn by loving kindness 
You make me whole 
i was born to praise You, God 
like thunder on a skyline, roaring loudly 
Your fingerprints are on my heart 
my life laid down to give You glory 
You and i, for all my days
i am Yours
when i breathe my last, i’ll breathe my first 
walking on Your shores 
i was born to praise You God
like thunder on a skyline, roaring loudly 
Your fingerprints are on my heart 
my life laid down to give You glory

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

'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...
