Conor Stone’s 'Waiting To Fly': Finding Faith and Purpose Through Music


Conor Stone's song 'Waiting To Fly' is deeply moving and relatable. Conor grew up immersed in church life, but in his teens, he drifted away. His life as a young professional musician more or less pushed his faith to the background. But life has a surprising way of bringing us back to our roots. 

Conor Stone - Waiting To FlyAt 36, Conor fell down two flights of stairs, an event that changed his life. Instead of broken bones, he woke up to a miraculous sense of being protected. Conor's doctor and the attending nurse were both astonished, remarking that 'God was looking out for you.' Call that a moment divine intervention, a rude awakening, that sparked a big change in Conor. He began writing worship songs, feeling guided by a higher purpose. 

'Waiting To Fly' captures this miraculous journey. The lyrics express a sincere longing to return to God's embrace. The chorus is very relatable, 'I was waiting, I was waiting to fly. With my God on high.' It speaks of standing firm in faith, despite what life hits you with, and trusting in God's perfect timing. 

Conor's story shows that Jesus is always with us and reaching out to us. Take a few minutes to listen to 'Waiting to Fly', especially if you too are feeling lost or disconnected. May Conor's journey encourage you during your journey to God.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 91:11-12; 2 Corinthians 5:17)

Bryan & Katie Torwalt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Miracle In The Works. LYRICS: Some may say it’s hopeless They must have never met my God  Some may say it’s over But it was finished on the cross Some may say it’s broken But the Healer’s in the room  Some may say it’s hopeless But I know    God’s about to move...   There’s a miracle in the works I can feel it There’s revival in the church I believe it   Some may see an ocean But He’s made a highway through Some may see a mountain  But we’ve seen a mountain move Some may see a graveyard But we’ve seen His empty tomb Some may see a battle But I know   Reignite us, reawaken Breath of God, come breathe again Like the dry bones started shaking All that died will live again  Oh the miracle You’re making The beginning not the end Eternity is waiting  To see Your church alive again   You are my miracle Jesus You are my miracle   #BryanandKatieTorw...

"Empty Hand" by Marcus & Jalyn McGill: Embracing God’s Presence as the Ultimate Gift

The idea behind Marcus & Jalyn McGill's new song, "Empty Hand," was triggered by a deeply personal season of infertility. One of their writers, Jennifer, had a vision where God was extending His hand to her, not holding the longed-for child, but an empty hand offering something much greater… His presence in the waiting. This vision became the center of this song and is an important message for anyone who is holding onto a wish/longing for a miracle that hasn't come to pass.  In this song we hear the message that comes along with His extended hand. "I've been watching as you've been waiting / As you focus on your lack," reminding us that it's so easy to get trapped in our pain when prayers don't seem to be answered. It's a pain that distracts and causes us to forget that He's "… more than enough." God already has a miracle for you, "I'm holding out My hand to you // Don't think because it's empty // I h...
