'Strong and Steady' by Heather Pillsbury: Finding Solid Ground in Faith


Heather Pillsbury's song 'Strong and Steady' grabs you from the first chords and keeps you engaged all the way to the end. This song is a melodic embrace that feels like coming home after a long and challenging journey. The lyrics point to the stable and firm foundation that we have in God, and that is a huge contrast to the world we have that keeps shifting like sand beneath our feet. 

Heather Pillsbury, The Worship Coalition - Strong and SteadyCan you recall those days when just about everything feels too much? When life feels like a rollercoaster, where everything is rushing past you with a pace that is much faster and fiercer than you can handle? 'Strong and Steady' meets you right there. It grounds you with a gentle reminder that there are good things going on around you, more than what meets the eye. It's about realizing that you're standing on solid rock because God is holding on to you. 

This song is a testament to God's unchanging nature. It reassures us that He's working everything out for our good. That foundation of faith - that unshakeable belief in the victory held by our God forever - is precisely what keeps us strong and steady. 

'Strong and Steady' is a call to lean on, lay back, and let the strength of our Almighty fill you. Give it a listen, and let it stir your heart and boost your faith. Because this song is a reminder we all need: with God, we are forever strong and steady.

(Related scripture: 2 Timothy 2:19; Psalm 18:2; Romans 8:28)

'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. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. 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...

"the cost (given for us)" by HOMECOMING: Feeling the Weight of Grace

HOMECOMING's "the cost (given for us)" looks at the weight of what Jesus gave up to save humanity. The backstory that HOMECOMING wrote this song after talking about how easy it is to say "Jesus died for me" without really thinking about what that means. Like, what did it actually cost Him? Their approach wasn't to create another "thank You" song, but a song that invites us to slow down and truly feel the sacrifice He made. His sacrifice wasn't just a painful moment on a cross. It was everything. He gave up heaven. He was rejected, betrayed, beaten… and He still chose the cross for us. That kind of love doesn't make sense. But it's real. The lyrics give words to the awe we feel: "You took my place // How can it be // By your grace I'm saved." And lines like "Your blood washed me clean" and "By your stripes I'm healed" remind us of the freedom and healing that He paid for. Then comes the part that ...

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common: Letting Go of People-Pleasing for Good

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common is an interesting song that was born out of this duo's struggles with wanting to please people and the pressure they felt to perform. The song reminds us to stop chasing others for their approval and start chasing Jesus instead. "I'm so done tryna be someone else just to keep people's attention," they sing. It can be very exhausting to constantly pretend and perform. The song reminds us to keep our hearts and lives centered on Jesus—the only one who truly is worthy of being our role model. Not for applause. Not for attention. But because His way is the only one that brings real peace and fulfillment in our lives.  The need to please others and perform is probably a feeling that many of us know all too well — but it doesn't have to define us.  The lyrics of the song put the issue right there on the table: "Who am I tryna be, who am I tryna please? That's the question." And the answer? Ofcourse, Jesus i...
