'Garden Hope' by Kristi Hepp - A Healing Melody Echoing Divine Promises


The title track of Kristi Hepp's newest album, 'In Between the Gardens,' is called 'Garden Hope.' It guides the wandering hearts and keeps them rooted in God's promises. It sings out to those who have grown weary on their earthly pilgrimage, offering an empathetic shoulder and a gentle reminder of our heavenly home.

Kristi Hepp - Garden HopeThe song echoes the yearning we all experience in our lives: being in the 'in between,' a place of longing. We are often 'tangled in this sorrow,' but 'Garden Hope' makes us feel better by mixing the bitter and the sweet and telling us that our pain will end.

Kristi's lyrics are full of strong emotions: where the rough current of sadness is mixed with the gentle stream of hope. The refrain, 'This world is not my home,' is a strong reminder that sparks hope and breaks through our sadness.

This promise keeps coming back to us: 'You will wipe every tear from our eyes / And death will be no more, death will be no more' These beautiful words carry a taste of the divine. They give us comfort by reminding us that even in our darkest hours, even when we feel devastated, we are not forgotten or abandoned.

'Garden Hope' is more than just a song; it's Kristi's hand reaching out to us, guiding us to heavenly comfort. The song encourages us to trust the journey, pay close attention, and let the music show us that there is light beyond what we can see. That is the invitation of 'Garden Hope'. Listen, accept the invitation, put your faith in God, and your tears will be wiped away.

'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.

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...

"Lead Me To The Cross" by Tiffany Ford: Surrendering All at the Cross

Tiffany Ford's rendition of "Lead Me To The Cross" is a tribute to the original song that was released approximately 10 years ago, around the same time that Tiffany started attending church with her family. The song beautifully reflects her own journey of learning about Jesus, especially His style of teaching … not by telling people what they needed to do, but by loving, healing, serving, and through His sacrifice.  One of Tiffany's favorite lines is "Rid me of myself," a contrast to the worldly focus of more is more, and shifting focus to faith, where we have all that we need, and embrace true freedom in Him. Tiffany emphasizes the message she found behind this line: "Lay your worries, your hang ups, lay everything down at the cross and follow me. Jesus died a death he didn't deserve so that we could live freely and this song serves as a good reminder for me."   It all comes together in the lines: "Savior I come // Quiet my soul, remembe...
