'Shadow of the Cross' by Jennifer Graf - Finding Freedom Where Love Flowed Down


As I listen to 'Shadow of the Cross' by Jennifer Graf, I am reminded how much Jesus loves us, so much that He gave up His life so we would be free and victorious. It's easy to picture Jesus on the cross, but yet it is so difficult to comprehend that He would willingly take on all of the pain and suffering that should have been ours.

Jennifer Graf - Shadow of the CrossThis song beautifully captures the essence of what it means to be a Christian - a call to lay down your burdens and find freedom in the arms of Jesus. It's about remembering that, no matter what we face, we're not alone. Jesus bore the ultimate agony, a crown of humility pressed into His brow, so that we could live in victory.

Jennifer invites you to reflect on this amazing love story. With every note, she reminds us that our debt has been erased and our chains broken; all because Jesus willingly gave His life for us. 

I recommend listening to this song. It's not just an enjoyable song; it also has an important message to share. It will remind you of how free and victorious you are in Jesus. Allow it to strengthen your faith and encourage you to put down your burdens 'in the shadow of the cross'.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 53:5; Romans 5:8; 2 Corinthians 5:21)

"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....

'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...
