'The Firstfall', a book by Whispering HOPE

Whispering HOPE not only releases great music (you've seen a number of the releases featured here). If you love reading Novellas, then you're in for a treat! Whispering HOPE released the first book of her 14 historical fiction books on the Old Testament... a series that will be followed by 14 books on the New Testament. 

The books are written as Novellas, just 14 chapters each. 

Here is an intro to book 1 of the series:

The Firstfall: A Tale of Adam and Eve

In a world where the divine and the mortal walk hand in hand, Adam and Eve live in perfect harmony with the Creator, their lives sustained by the sacred Breath of Life. The Garden of Eden is a place of unimaginable beauty, where everything thrives under the Creator's watchful eye-except for one forbidden secret: the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. 

Eve is content, but curiosity gnaws at her soul. Why has the Creator placed the Tree before them, only to forbid its fruit? As whispers from the shadowy Serpent begin to echo in her mind, Eve is drawn into a dangerous temptation. What would it mean to know as the Creator knows, to understand the balance between light and darkness, life and death?

When the boundary between trust and doubt is crossed, Adam and Eve's choice will unravel the spiritual harmony that has protected their very souls. 

In this gripping reimagining of the first human story, The Firstfall explores the universal themes of faith, free will, and the search for truth. Through heart-wrenching decisions and the birth of sin, Adam and Eve must face the cost of knowledge-and the price of their freedom.

Perfect for fans of epic fantasy and spiritual exploration, The Firstfall blends ancient truths with powerful storytelling to reveal the raw humanity behind our fall from grace.

'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...

"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 ...
