Jenna Northwood's 'Gotta Keep': Finding Strength in the Song


Jenna Northwood wrote the song 'Gotta Keep' when she was going through a difficult time. The song is a testament to Jenna's steadfast faith. It's a rallying cry for everyone who is toughing it out. The beat of the song? A single line: 'Gotta Keep, Gotta keep it all together.'

Jenna Northwood - Gotta KeepJenna helps us to remember that we're not alone. Somedays the news can really hit your sense of safety and security, and you almost wish that you could just switch it off and pretend it's not happening. It's also in those moments that we are blessed with the assurance that God is always with us. He keeps us upright when things get rough. And it is in songs like 'Gotta Keep' where we find strongholds to help keep us strong and calm. Songs that help us to position events in a larger persective, changing how we perceive the news that comes by as well as the day-to-day challenges we face at work and home.

Jenna's song is a call to action, encouraging us to hold onto our hope, trust, faith, and a belief in God's constant presence. There is hope in this song, a hope that reminds us that God will carry us through all circumstances and with His help, all will be okay.

(Related scripture: Deuteronomy 31:6; Psalm 46:1-2; Philippians 4:13)

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"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...
