'O Come O Come Emmanuel (How Long)' by Perry LaHaie: Rediscovering Our Yearning for Christ's Return

Perry LaHaie's rendition of the ancient carol 'O Come O Come Emmanuel' is a touching reminder of our collective longing for the Messiah, not only for His first coming but also His second. LaHaie's rendition of this powerful song invites us to reflect on our desire for Jesus' second coming.

A lament emerges from a sea of swirling melodies and poignant lyrics, echoing the cries of the prophets of old: 'How long, O Lord, till you bring justice to the earth, till you make all things right, till all the sad things come untrue?' It speaks to those of us who are overwhelmed by the world's suffering, transgressions, and injustices. We find comfort in a Father who hears, cares, and promises to heal all things when we surrender our feelings through lament.

The promise of His glorious return is at the heart of Perry's new vision of Emmanuel (meaning 'God with us'). This song reminds us that we are all bound together under the reign of the King of Peace in an interconnected world populated by various nations. It proclaims the unwavering faith that our longing and waiting will not be in vain.

I invite you to let 'O Come, O Come Emmanuel' resonate in your heart, reminding you of God's promises, faithfulness, and coming victory.

"Hiding Place (Live)" by DBU Chapel Worship: Forgiven, Covered, and Free

How often do you hear worship songs being sung live in the comforts of your day-to-day living? For sure, there are a dime a dozen. Some you commonly share with the person next to you, featuring songs by popular Christian Artists. But there's a certain form of unique sincerity when one discovers a worship song that is yet to break through to a larger audience. This is how the song "Hiding Place" by DBU Chapel Worship featuring Olivia-Grace McKern felt like when I first listened to the song. It felt like a new testimony being told, of one's dedication to find God and remain in his presence. Taking root from Psalm 32, the song is a collaboration of Olivia with a host of songwriters from the DBU Chapel Worship. Enriching her experience as a songwriter and moving her through the songwriting process. In perhaps a reflection of what the song eventually became, it wasn't so that Olivia conveniently hid behind the DBU Chapel Worship songwriters/musicians. This song is a c...

'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...
