'Coming Home' by Andrew Macdonald: A Heart's Homecoming to Divine Love


The story of the Prodigal Son comes to life in Andrew Macdonald's heartfelt contemporary Christian music song 'Coming Home.' A rich melody wraps around this song, like a lamphouse showing the way to God's presence.

Andrew Macdonald - Coming HomeThe beauty of the song comes from its sincerity. The words speak to the common experience of leaving and coming back, of seeking and being found. Andrew's lyrics connects our deepest longings, wishes, and regrets with God's love, a love that never ceases to invite us back.

The song sets the scene: someone who is lost and is longing for home, turning back. That repeated phrase, 'I'm coming home,' is like our own inner call, an intense realization that our true home is in God's loving presence. 'Coming Home' is equally about grace. No matter how far we go off course, our Heavenly Father is always waiting with arms wide open.

'Coming Home' is almost like a prayerful journey that lets you feel like the weight of the world is lifted off your shoulders. A journey that ends when you stand in front of God with a renewed sense of love and home.

Join Andrew on this journey with 'Coming Home.' Have a listen and open up your heart. Let it touch your soul and strengthen your relationship with God.

(Related scripture: Luke 15:11-32; Isaiah 43:1; Matthew 11:28)

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"Set Free" by Kristin Ambuhl: Naming Your Real Enemy

What battle are you really fighting today?   Some enemies wear a smile. Kristin Ambuhl calls this out in her song “Set Free”. The song calls these enemies a “favorite shadow” who’s “throwin’ words like daggers” while “hiding behind your laughter.” This is much more than a person who is being difficult. Kristin wrote this song about the daily spiritual battles we face as believers — battles found in arrogant people, dark influences, and forces that work to pull us away from who God made us to be. Whether it’s small fights or big ones, she’s naming them all.  The song doesn’t stay stuck in the shadows. Kristin declares, “I’ve been set apart, I’ve been set free, from my enemies, against dark powers, rulers, and authorities.” Part of that line echoes Ephesians 6:12: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” W...

"Come Alive" by Joel Lane: Finding Life Where Emptiness Used to Live

What if nothing you chase can truly fill the emptiness?  Emptiness has a way of following you around, no matter how fast you run. You chase a feeling (or things you believe will get you higher up “the ladder”), land on it for a moment, and then watch it slip through your fingers again. Joel Lane captures that feeling of restlessness in the opening lines of his song “Come Alive”: “Emptiness, chasing a feeling, trying to fill the void inside.” Sound familiar? Most of us have spent years searching for a purpose that felt just out of our reach.  Joel sings about how something happened that put everything in a different perspective. “You opened my eyes, now I see the light, I’m never going back.” That’s not a small statement. That’s a complete change of direction, a different way of living, a change the kind that can only happen when God steps into the picture.  The apostle Paul writes about this change of direction in Ephesians: “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the...
