Mohammed K Paika’s ‘Just Human’: A Call to Unity and Peace


Just Human' by Mohammed K Paika, is a touching and very relevant song about the growing lack of unity and peace in this world. Our world… where it seems that we have lost touch with the essence of our shared humanity. The song calls us to break down barriers - religious and political - and see each other as children of God. Sure, we can all point to politicians who sanction the violance, the children who pull knives (or worse) instead of talking, and the list goes on. But nothing will change until we change what we can. It starts with us, you and me. 

Mohammed K Paika - Just HumanMohammed's voice, combined with a unique musical blend of drums, synths, guitars, and piano, takes you on a musical journey that encourages you to find peace amid all of the global turmoil we see. 

The message of this song is so relevant, as we see the number of conflicts growing, like Israel-Palestine, Russia-Ukraine, and many more that don't even make the 6 o'clock news. Mohammed writes lyrics like, 'In the depths of my heart, a wish takes flight / Troubled by factions waging an endless fight,' that expressing what many of us feel… pain and a longing for peace. 

Mohammed sings, 'Peace is the answer, where we all belong,' suggesting that we should all give up our weapons, both real and figurative, like the words we use, and embrace the fact that we are all equal. God created us equal, and plans for each of us - there are no labels or divides. Imagine a world where borders blur as we stand hand in hand, grounded in faith and love. It's not a new thought, it's a message that has been heard for centuries, but the only advancements humanity seems to be making in this area is in the technology and strategies used in battle. 

Kyle Townsend's collaboration, together with Trevor Stanislaus and Hailey Summers, turns 'Just Human' into a heartfelt prayer for a world united. A prayer that we hope will be heard in more and more homes across the world. 

Give 'Just Human' a listen. May this song move your heart and spirit with its powerful message. It's time to look beyond our differences and find the divine unity that truly binds us all.

(Related scripture: Galatians 3:28; Ephesians 4:3; John 17:21)

'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...

"The Christ" by NewSpring Worship: Answering the Call to Confess

NewSpring Worship's new release, called "The Christ", invites us to answer Jesus' timeless question: "Who do you say that I am?" The song takes us to the scene of Mark 8:29, where Jesus and His disciples were on their way to Caesarea Philippi, and He asked His disciples: "Who do men say that I am?" After the disciples answered, Jesus turned the question around and made it personal… He asked them: "But what about you? Who do you say I am?' Peter answered, 'You are the Messiah.'" Tom, one of the members of NewSpring Worship shared: "… we want that to be a confession of every individual in our church and outside of our church. And we want that to be a confession of everybody." That's the heart of the song. Ask yourself, if you had been there together with the other disciples on that road with Jesus, what would your answer be to His question, "Who do you say that I am?" With this song, you have the oppor...
