Brave Worship, Krissy Nordhoff, Tamar Chipp, Amanda Kinner - Famous For (I Believe) (CCM)

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.

"Feelings" by Marlee Smith: When Anxiety Meets the King of Kings

"Feelings" by Marlee Smith is proof that age has nothing to do with wisdom. Marlee (now 17 years old) wrote this song when she was 12, and captures something that most of us struggle to put into words… the overwhelming weight of unspoken emotions. Rediscovered years later, Marlee brought this song to life with a beautiful piano arrangement. Marlee shared: "I changed a bit of the chorus to have more of a purpose, learning from what I struggled with in the past." The song opens honestly: "Fill my brain with the feelings, good and bad, don't know what it is." Does this sound familiar? Whether it's anxiety, the pressure of impossible standards, or the fear that your mistakes have permanently derailed God's plan — Marlee names them all. She doesn't dress up reality and allows it to be messy.  As you listen, the message shifts. What started as "I can't let it out" gradually turns into an invitation as it reaches a turning point: ...

'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...

"Miracles" by Yair Levi: You Don't Need a Burning Sky to Believe

The song “Miracles” by Yair Levi starts before the sun rises, in the quiet of an ordinary morning. No dramatic sign. No burning sky. Just a man waking up, closing his eyes, and saying “toda” , the Hebrew word for “thank you.” That single word sets the tone for everything that this song is about.  The song’s message is simple and powerful… God doesn’t need burning skies to prove that He’s real. Yair uses a quote by Steve Jobs that reframes everything: “If you smile // if you laugh // You are more // Rich than me.” In the next verse, he continues: “Like a bird // On the breeze // Like the first time // You breath // Help me see // Simple things.” What if the miracle you’ve been waiting for is already here, hiding in plain sight? Levi points out that everyday life can be seen as sacred ground. Wherever you look, you’ll see small miracles. Think about the breath in your lungs, the morning light, your ability to feel joy… these aren’t small things, they’re miracles!  May this so...
