"Clues" by Josh Bissell & Spencer Annis: Healing Through the Questions


"Clues" by Josh Bissell and Spencer Annis is a beautiful indie folk ballad for anyone who's ever felt lost and wants to find their way again. The song offers quiet but undeniable hope, like the first hint of dawn after a long night. The lyrics navigate the messy journey of confronting our inner "monsters" and buried (childhood) wounds. "Where did the monsters come from? // How did I come to meet them?" Bissell asks, voicing the feelings we experience when past hurts are unraveled. This song isn't about keeping those pains "safely" wrapped up in darkness, "Reaching through the shadows to the edges of my mind // Filling every corner with illuminating light." 

Josh Bissell - Clues (feat. Spencer Annis)Clarity usually doesn't come in grand revelations but as small sacred nudges. "I guess I'm just looking for clues." The approach is to shine a bright light on it and ask God to help find the clues needed to figure out a way forward. It's a song about surrender—with repeated cries, "Lord, help me find the clues." The song emphasizes that faith is the key that can even make fractured hearts bloom again. Sure, we can search for clues on our own, but with God as our guide, we're "cultivating beauty with a seed that blooms in time."

If you're feeling lost, may this song remind you that the search itself is sacred, and it is a path that you don't need to travel on your own. Invite God to help you find the clues and help you heal those hidden wounds.

(Related scripture: Psalm 139:23-24; John 8:12; Isaiah 42:3)

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...

"Coming Out Of Babylon" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Finding Purpose and Joy in Christ

Robert Peterson had barely dusted off his drum kit when the Lord handed him a new setlist. Robert shares: "this current round of songs being created were different - they were all his - well sort of all his." He had decided it was time to offer up his talents to the Lord. Robert writes: "I was mortified at the thought of actually giving my life to Him. I didn't want to give up who I thought I was."   "Coming Out of Babylon" is the first song coming out of this change (one that was on the shelve a while pending creation of a intro). The result is a five-minute testimony that turns a trembling surrender into a victory march. As you listen, you can feel how this slow ache of "doing what I wanted to… without a fear" transitions into the realization that "I needed You - all the way."   What I enjoy about the song is that it helps to see "leaving" as the first step that is needed to following His calling for us. The chorus emph...
