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....

"Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller: A Tender Tribute to a Loyal Friend

Beneath this gentle Americana-style song, "Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller, is the heartbreak of a seven-year-old boy. The day his grandson had to say goodbye to his dog, Tucker, he asked Stephen, "Will you write a song for Tucker? Can we pretend he's still around?" How can you not say "Yes" to such a request?  This song offers comfort by simply being honest. Instead of dramatizing the grief, the message sits with it and invites the listener to reflect as well. It's lines like "Sing the song to Tucker, sing to all dogs gone away" that remind us that precious memories endure. Have you ever asked yourself how to comfort a grieving child? I know that these situations often remind me that we're all searching for hope after more than one loss! On top of that, how can you extend that hope to a grieving child? Even in situations like the loss of a dear four-legged pet, there is a message of faith to be found: "Sing to God, the...
