Joe Nester - The Unfair Advantage (R&B/CHH)


Joe Nester's song 'The Unfair Advantage' is a powerful testament to the transformative power of faith and redemption. With a personal story of overcoming addiction and homelessness, Nester's lyrics speak directly to anyone who has felt trapped by the struggles of life.

The song opens with a biblical reference to Isaiah 54:17, which declares that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against us in judgment shall be condemned. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, which is a celebration of the power of God to overcome the forces of darkness and despair.

The chorus proclaims that we can come to a place where the chains fall down, and the lost are found. The unfair advantage, according to Nester, is the power of Jesus Christ to set us free from the grip of the enemy, to wash us clean, and provide all that we need. The bridge reminds us that there is healing in His name and that nothing else can compare to what God can offer.

Joe Nester - The Unfair AdvantageThe song speaks directly to those who have struggled with addiction, crime, and other forms of darkness. Nester understands these struggles personally and has found hope and healing through his faith. He urges listeners to get their faith up, to come to a place where they can find freedom, and to experience the unfair advantage that God offers.

'The Unfair Advantage' is an inspiring and uplifting song that encourages listeners to turn to God for hope and healing. It is a reminder that no matter how broken we may feel, there is always hope for redemption and a brighter future. I highly recommend giving it a listen and letting its message of hope sink in.

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'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...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
