'Parking Lot' by Stephanie Merkus: Finding Grace in Unexpected Places


God can be found in the most unexpected of places! 'Parking Lot' by Stephanie Merkus is about those unexpected places. Stephanie takes you along on a very personal journey, from a drinking problem to His revelation of grace and redemption. The song reminds you that it doesn't matter where you are, maybe your stuck in traffic or sitting in a parking lot after a long day, God's love can find you. Stephanie sings about moments of surrender, where the FM dial of life tunes into the frequency of Godly intervention.

Stephanie Merkus - Parking LotWhat's in this song for you? Well, it's simple. Stephanie shares the truth that His life changing grace can come to you any time and any place, even in a parking lot. It's a song for anyone that feels stuck in the consequences of their mistakes, looking for some way out. Stephanie's story tells us that change is a promise waiting to happen as soon as we decide to turn towards God.

So, if you feel that your life is going nowhere, and you're looking for change, give 'Parking Lot' a listen. Let it give you the boost to make your next big leap in life. Because, sometimes, all it takes is to decide that you're done with the 'stuff' that is holding you back, and that you're ready to embrace God's love and guidance in your life.

Wherever you are, you're just one turn away from a new beginning.

(Related scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:17; John 8:12; Ephesians 2:8-9)

"Whoop The Devil" by Destin Dumais: Standing in Christ's Authority

Who gave you the authority to stand firm? Destin Dumais opens his debut single with an amazing sound that excites, gets you up on your feet, and gets you ready to conquer. “Whoop The Devil” is a hard-hitting country-rock song with one clear message: As believers, we hold real authority in Christ! The song starts with a cowboy scene. “Gonna saddle up and ride, ain’t no place you can hide.” Then comes the line that makes an important difference: “Been deputized, authorized.” Nobody appoints himself to this work. The badge was handed over at Calvary. Jesus said it plainly in Luke 10:19: “Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.” Who gives the authority? Jesus does! This kind of confidence never relies on your strength, your mood, or your track record. This confidence rests on His name, and His name only! Does that now mean that our fears will disappear for good? Not always. Destin admits that...

"Faith Like Daniel" by Marlee Smith: Praising God When the World Says No

Who do you trust when everyone disagrees? What do you do when the world says that your God doesn’t matter? Marlee Smith’s energetic pop-rock song, “Faith Like Daniel,” comes with an all-teenage female band behind her, and her response to what the world says is anything but timid. When the world feels overturned, she’ll keep “praising my Father,” even when the world says she shouldn’t. Remember what we read in the Bible about Daniel? Daniel knew that pressure. A royal decree banned prayer to anyone but the king for a period of thirty days. Daniel heard the news, went home, opened his windows, and prayed as he always had. No speeches. No protest. Just steady faith, three times a day. Then came the lions, and what happened that night in the den became a testimony. Scripture says, “No kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God” (Daniel 6:23). Daniel never trusted that his circumstances would be easy. He trusted the One who stood over them. Marlee’s message carries t...

"I’ll Rejoice" by David Dowdell: Finding Joy in God When Plans Fail

Can you praise God when nothing goes right? Empty vines. Failed crops. A barn with no animals. David Dowdell opens his song, “I’ll Rejoice”, with a list of losses that is so complete that it feels as if “there is nothing left at all.” David took his inspiration from the book of Habakkuk and wrote a defiant anthem of praise for anyone whose plans have fallen apart (… we’ve all had that happen to us, one way or another…). The song also asks the question most of us try to avoid: “What if I never get to live the life I wanted?” Will you still trust God when all you have left is “a tired and broken heart” ? Be honest with yourself. Just about everyone has a ready answer for the sunny days, but hardly an answer for the dark ones. Habakkuk didn’t pretend. He saw disaster coming and said so. Still he wrote: “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will take joy in the God of my salvation.” (Habakkuk 3:18, ESV) Notice how this verse starts with the word “yet.” His joy didn’t wait for circumstance...
