Brave Worship, Krissy Nordhoff, Tamar Chipp, Amanda Kinner - Famous For (I Believe)
Brave Worship, Krissy Nordhoff, Tamar Chipp, Amanda Kinner has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Famous For (I Believe).

The story behind the hit song FAMOUS FOR (I BELIEVE) - made popular by Tauren Wells and Jenn Johnson - is shared by Krissy Nordhoff. 

'Famous For' began in May 2016. Krissy was singing the psalms at her piano, which she does every day; it had just become a part of her routine. While she used to read these Psalms, Krissy realized they are actually songs, so it would probably be best to sing them instead. While singing these songs, the Holy Spirit began teaching her more and more about how to write worship songs. From time to time she would get a little idea from the song she sung in the morning and took that into a co-write later that day, and that's what happened with this song. This also happened while reading Psalm 79: 8 - 10, where it said 'Pull us out of this mess, forgive us our sins — do what you’re famous for doing!'... a verse that became the basis for this song.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Welcome To Your Life" by Howard Gripp: A Fresh Start, Every Morning

What would change if today felt brand new?  Howard Gripp asked himself that same question on a beach, watching waves erase impressions in the sand, making the beach look as new again. He wasn’t planning to write a song. He was just sitting there, reflecting on his own journey, and recalling the day he realized he could leave his past behind and start fresh. That memory became the key message of this song: “every day is an opportunity for a new beginning.”   The lyrics open with Howard standing “out on the ocean’s edge,” the breeze in his head, the waves making “everything so clear.” Clarity like that doesn’t usually come from noise. It comes from stillness. “See your past, like footprints in the sand // Slowly fade as the tide rolls in.” Footprints don’t argue with the tide; they can’t, they’re powerless. They just vanish, one wave at a time.  Psalm 103:12 says the same thing, only louder, and puts it this way: “as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remov...

"Let It Rise - Live" by Hope Worship: When Surrender Becomes Worship

What if surrender opened the door to change?  Some songs ask nothing of you. “Let It Rise — Live” asks everything. Hope Worship wrote this song as a simple invitation that is meant to feel welcoming rather than complicated: ask the Holy Spirit to have His way in you. No hidden agenda, no complex theology lesson. Just an open door for the Holy Spirit.  Hope Worship repeats a line that sounds a bit risky: “Break my heart open.” Why would anyone ask for that? Because a closed heart can’t hold much of anything new. The song builds from that vulnerable request into a rising cry: “Let it rise like incense.” Picture the smoke curling upward, unhurried, unstoppable. That’s what surrendered worship looks like.  Keep that picture of incense in mind as you read Psalm 141:2, “Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.” David was offering something real, something costly, and trusting that God would receive it.
