Michael Encarnacion: A Melody of Eternal Life Born On the Road


A new song by Michael Encarnacion came out last Friday. It is called 'Eternal Life'. The inspiration for this song came to Michael while driving to work one October morning. It was around 8 a.m. when, out of the blue, a tune came to his mind. Soon after, the first few lines of the lyrics started to take shape. The first parts of the song were recorded on a voice recorder, but he quickly adds that he doesn't recommend doing this while driving. After letting this marinate for a few months, he added the second verse in March 2024. The song was produced in June and released last Friday. 

Michael Encarnacion - Eternal Life'Eternal Life' is a beautiful reminder of Christ's sacrifice and the grace that flows from it. The song starts at the cross, where we think about how Christ suffered so that we could be set free. Death has lost it's sting; there is victory over death! The chorus shouts our praises and encourages us to live renewed lives and be a light to others. No matter where we are or how we feel, nothing can stop His freedom and light from reaching us. All we need to do is let Him into our lives, and accept the forgiveness and grace that have been there for us since the veil in the temple was torn. 

Everyone who accepts Jesus as their Savior and follows His guidance will be free and have eternal life, all because of His sacrifice for us. Allow yourself a few minutes to listen to 'Eternal Life.' We pray that this song encourages you to accept His gift and receive His eternal love.

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'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...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
