'Wildfire' by Vivid Era: Music fostering faith in the middle of vulnerability


Step into the lyrical setting of Vivid Era's song 'Wildfire,' where faith and vulnerability coexist under an umbrella of divine grace. The song fills us with the reassuring certainty of God's everlasting compassion. It expresses the honest feelings of someone who is feeling forgotten, and is gently reminded of the Lord's unending and burning love.

Vivid Era - WildfireThe song starts with 'You're far away, far from the safest place,' creating a setting of spiritual loneliness. The song addresses the fear of rejection, of feeling being so far away that it seems impossible to find a way back. Out of that fear comes a refrain that echoes a divine assurance: 'Passion burnin' 'till the daylight | Love ablaze through the dead of night | Closer still than anyone you know | This fire keeps warm in the cold'

The song boldly invites you to take a step forward, to once again experience the comforting rest of God's presence; to trust as easily as before; and to make a leap of faith into His unfailing love. The lyrics remind us that we have a Father who will never abandon us, and paints an image of a 'wild fire' that keeps us warm even in the coldest of trials.

Listen to Vivid Era's 'Wildfire' and find renewed faith within. Draw from the song's lyrics, appreciate its meaningful resonance, and allow it to ignite a spiritual fire similar to a comforting, homely wildfire—an endless source of warmth and love that endures no matter where you are on your spiritual journey.

'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...

Skillet - Valley of Death (CCM)

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...
