Finding Hope in James Bizak's 'The Wilderness'


Are you feeling lost and in need of guidance? If that is the case, and also if you like inspiring music, then James Bizak's song 'The Wilderness' is a song that we recommend. This song was originally meant to be a gentle piano and acoustic piece, and through God's guidance the song transformed into more of a pop punk style CCM track. With this unique genre shift Bizak hoes to not only reach Christian music fans but also people outside the Christian community that are struggling with life's challenges, mental illness, or a feeling of hopelessness.

James Bizak - The WildernessYou'll feel the pure emotion of Bizak in the lyrics, especially when he sings, 'Jesus guide me through the wilderness, I was such a mess.' These words remind us that even in our darkest moments, there is one thing that is absolutely true, Jesus is already there, waiting for you to invite Him in. That is such a comforting message, especially for youth who might be feeling pretty lonely in today's increasingly hardened world.

This song's message, 'Make me more like you,' is a prayer for God to change you. Bizak talks about how he used to be in a bad place without God, and he hopes that the song will give hope and strength those who need it the most.

Listen to 'The Wilderness' now. May the words and music guide you through your own challenges and remind you that you're never alone, because God is always nearby and waiting for you to let Him in.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 43:19; Psalm 23:4; Matthew 4:1)

"Hiding Place (Live)" by DBU Chapel Worship: Forgiven, Covered, and Free

How often do you hear worship songs being sung live in the comforts of your day-to-day living? For sure, there are a dime a dozen. Some you commonly share with the person next to you, featuring songs by popular Christian Artists. But there's a certain form of unique sincerity when one discovers a worship song that is yet to break through to a larger audience. This is how the song "Hiding Place" by DBU Chapel Worship featuring Olivia-Grace McKern felt like when I first listened to the song. It felt like a new testimony being told, of one's dedication to find God and remain in his presence.  Taking root from Psalm 32, the song is a collaboration of Olivia with a host of songwriters from the DBU Chapel Worship. Enriching her experience as a songwriter and moving her through the songwriting process. In perhaps a reflection of what the song eventually became, it wasn't so that Olivia conveniently hid behind the DBU Chapel Worship songwriters/musicians. This song is a c...

'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...
