"Witness" by Tim Moberly: A Melodic Testimony of Transformation

Tim Moberly's 'Witness' is a compelling Christian song inspired by Lee Strobel's book 'The Case for Christ.' The song beautifully captures the journey of a person who, after examining the evidence and teachings of Jesus, becomes a fervent believer and a witness to His existence and works.

The song's background adds depth to its meaning. Tim Moberly's personal experience of reading 'The Case for Christ' and being inspired by the transformation of an atheist into a believer forms the foundation of 'Witness.' The song portrays the trial-like imagery of a witness stand, where the narrator boldly testifies to the incredible feats and teachings of Jesus.

Each verse of the song builds upon the conviction that Jesus walked the earth, overcame death, and is an ever-present source of strength. The chorus magnifies the narrator's role as a witness to the transformative power of Christ. The bridge adds a personal touch, reflecting the narrator's growth from hesitation to outspoken faith.

'Witness' encourages us to contemplate the evidence of Jesus' existence and the impact of His teachings. The song's melodic flow and heartfelt lyrics resonate with both believers and seekers, inviting all to explore the profound journey from doubt to faith.

"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...
