Fans of the band will be thrilled to know that the band reunites with their former lead vocalist, Thrina Dimaano, after 15 years! The trigger behind this song is actually their reunion and a desire to declare their dedication to God's path with the world. 

Thoughts And Notions - Countdown to ForeverThe lyrics are relatable, describing the ups and downs of life that ultimately lead to celebrating God's constant presence. It is God's love that can save us when we're going through tough times (if you let Him). The chorus is a powerful affirmation that deserves repeating over and over again: "I'm going to ride through the turbulent waves // Knowing that you're here to save // I'll never let go of my grip // You're the only hope I keep // I'm counting down to forever // I'm counting down to forever."

So, sing along when your facing some of life's hardships and let the lyrics fill you with faith, encouraging you to recognize God's unwavering support. May this song help you to realize that you're never alone, and the best way forward is to hold onto God's promises with unwavering faith.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

'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.
