'Refuge' by Badiaco: Finding Salvation in the Song


The story behind Badiaco's contemporary Christian Music (CCM) song 'Refuge' is as moving as the song itself. Let us follow Badiaco, who found salvation years ago, married his high school sweetheart, Barbara, and embarked on a lifelong spiritual journey with her that blossomed into a beautiful faith family.

Badiaco - RefugeBadiaco devoted his musical talents to the Lord, and after a thirty-year sabbatical, he returned to his musical roots, but with a divine purpose. His song 'Refuge,' inspired by Psalm 91:1, bears witness to his spiritual journey.

The lyrics of 'Refuge' are a poignant invitation and declaration—God as an unwavering pillar in our lives, a hand extended in grace and shelter to all seeking salvation. It encourages listeners to open their eyes, hearts, and souls to God's transformative love and protection through open dialogue and a recurring question, 'Why can't you see?'

'Refuge' shows a God whose love is unwavering and constant—a God who patiently waits for us to grasp His outstretched hand. It captures the essence of Badiaco's faith journey, from a dusty bass guitar to the worship team at his Sedona church, where he continues to sing praises to the Lord.

It's an experience as well as a song. So, let 'Refuge' serve as an accompaniment to your spiritual journey as you walk hand in hand with the Love that will never abandon you.

(Related scripture: Psalm 91:1-2; Isaiah 43:2; John 14:6)

'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...

"Turn to You" by Mike Cunningham: A Veterinarian's Worship Journey

Mike Cunningham is a veterinarian from Ohio. He traded his country tunes for worship music after discovering God's call on his life. In this debut single, "Turn to You," Cunningham explores what it means to seek God in a world that is so clouded by chaos and lies. He boldly asks the question, "In a world so torn with darkness, can a miracle set us free?" Looking at the chaos and mess around us, a situation that makes life feel quite overwhelming for many, it's His miracle that truly gives us hope. Cunningham reminds us that Jesus isn't just a distant figure that once walked on water and healed the blind, He is there for you and walks by your side. He is ready to guide you (if you let Him), even through your darkest nights. When everything is shaking beneath your feet, He is the one that you can lean on. "You are the way, the truth, and the light," bringing the clarity that we desperately need in our lives today.  May this song turn your gaze ...
