'Still' by kindred.: Relinquishing Control and Embracing God’s Strengthening Silence


When life's challenges seem impossible and the road ahead appears impassable, the powerful music of kindred., a soulful duo comprised of Dustin Chapman and Ryleigh Madison, resonates beautifully with their inspiring song, 'Still.'

'Still' is a testament to their unwavering faith in God's enduring strength, born in the crucible of personal trials—an intense encounter with COVID-19 and a car accident. The song is a poignant invitation to 'be still,' to give up our futile attempts to control life's circumstances and instead lean into the personally chosen source of our strength—faith in God, which keeps us steady as we navigate life's tumultuous waves.

kindred. - Still'Still' is surrounded by the profound promise that God meets us in our weakness and strengthens us. With echoes of 'I'll sit still, and bask in Your glory,' it paints a picture of devoted faith, a commitment to wait for God's holy guidance, and acceptance of His strengthening silence.

Kindred., a North Carolina-based uncle-niece duo, harmonizes their personal struggles and triumphs into a melody of hope, inspiring countless listeners with their blend of traditional and contemporary country, gospel music, and heartfelt lyrics.

'Still' encourages us to enter the silent sanctuary of our faith in the midst of the noise of fear and doubt. Allow it to inspire you to be still and recognize the majesty of His love and the miraculous ways He energizes our frail hearts.

'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...

"You Came And Found Me" by Recovered Crown: A Journey from Pain to Purpose

"You Came And Found Me" by Recovered Crown is about the healing God brought after having been trapped in a cycle of deeply hurtful relationships for years and the strength she found to truly step into her calling. She experienced harmful relationships as a child and as an adult, and reached a point where she was completely exhausted. "I didn't know how much of myself I had lost trying to survive," she shares. "But even in the darkest moments, God never stopped pursuing me."   The song reflects the change God brought into her life: "In a desperate state, in a broken place // You came and found me." It's not only a song for anyone who has been in similar situations but also for anyone who feels abandoned or even voiceless. There is always hope, "You're all that I need and so much more." It's God who truly heals, and He is always within your reach, no matter how bad the situation looks: "Hallelujah, I am restored in...

"None Like You" by Salt: Surrendering to the Pursuit of His Love

"None Like You" by Salt is a powerful song about the wonder and holiness of God, written by the Southern California duo Brian Albright and Kadi Zabka. The song has a powerful melody, honest lyrics, and encourages us to pause regularly to worship Him, and focus on His presence.  It's so easy to get distracted by the chaos of life, a chaos that can shout louder than our longing for His presence and distract us from realizing that His love and grace for us is unique. Step away from those distractions and realize that nothing else compares to what He gives us. "I won't go searching any longer // All that I need is what you're offering me." Salt describes His love as "a kind of love that's like no other,"  and it's a kind of love that cannot be found in 'the world'. Sadly, it's not just the chaos of the world around us that distracts, we also experience chaos in our lives, felt in our heart and mind, and it distracts us from rea...
