'For My Sake' by Tim & Billy – Remembering with Hope


'For My Sake' by Tim & Billy is an ode to the loved ones that have passed away, a heartfelt conversation that's as sincere as those screen porch heart-to-hearts it describes. Billy began writing this song around Father's Day and quickly realized that the lyrics were about his own father and mother. Tim & Billy release this as a song for anyone who has lost or is missing a loved one. 

Tim & Billy - For My SakeAs you listen, you can almost feel the cool morning air they once enjoyed and hear the creak of those old wooden rocking chairs on the porch. The laughter and the wisdom that is shared over countless cups of coffee. As the song goes on, we're reminded that even though we may be feeling sad, Christ's death bridges the gap between our temporary goodbyes in this life and our eternal hellos in heaven. 

In Christ, our temporary pain of losing a loved one is met with eternal peace, and that helps to process the loss a little bit easier, and the separation more bearable.

May 'For My Sake' spark those precious memories and help you look forward to a joyful reunion with loved ones. Whenever you find yourself grieving a loss, think about this song and let it hug your heart, renew your faith, and comfort you.

(Related scripture: Revelation 21:4; 1 Corinthians 15:55; Philippians 1:23)

"Holy (In The Valley)" by Caleb Andrew: Finding His Greatness in the Valley

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough. The lyrics have become Caleb's daily reminder: "will you let trials silence your song, or will you sing anyway?" The bridge commands cour...

'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...
