"I’ll Go" by Matthew Simmons: Trusting God Through Every Step


Matthew Simmons released "I'll Go", a powerful song about wholeheartedly following Jesus, no matter where He leads you. The song captures what it means to surrender to God and declares, "Where you go I'll go" and "The compass of my heart, You point me to the light." This is such an encouraging reminder that God always meets us where ever we are and wraps us in His love, even though the world may say that we'll never measure up. 

Matthew Simmons - I’ll GoThe main theme of this song's message focuses on trust and devotion, and that includes trusting that He will always be with you, even when life seems to go the wrong way. Inspiring lyrics like "In the blessing and the breaking, I'll never be forsaken" emphasize that God is always there for us, no matter what ups and downs we're going through. He doesn't let us go, and any distance we may be feeling is only because we're starting to let go of Him. We trust that you'll enjoy how Matthew Simmons and Curtis Ray manage to create a sense of freedom, excitement, and joy that reminds us of how we'll feel when we surrender to God's call. 

The message of finding freedom and joy in surrender may sound a bit like a contradiction, but realize that it is about surrendering your will to the ultimate Source of freedom and joy. That is the core message that turns this song into a lifeline, or better yet, a roadmap for anyone who is looking for courage to take that leap of faith. So, whether you're navigating life's highs or lows, may this song remind you that God is always there for you and He gives purpose to your life. May this song encourage you to follow Him boldly and commit to walk fearlessly with Him along the path that He has set out for you.

"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...
