"Ain't My Jesus Something" by Amanda Joy Powell: Groove While You Praise


Amanda Joy Powell's "Ain't My Jesus Something" is a new song released to radio, and what a sound it is! Amanda describes it as an upbeat praise song to make you get your groove on! She wrote this song with a simple goal in mind, to remind us that we don't "need" to have a reason to praise Jesus, and sometimes we need a bit of help emotionally to get there! He's already worthy of all glory. 

Amanda Joy Powell - Ain't My Jesus SomethingThe song bursts with gratitude for the change He gives us, "I'm not who I was just the other day, not one bit // My life has turned around into something new, and I'll admit." The lyrics reflect on how He frees us from our pasts, "the old has come and gone," creating room for a new life, healed from our past, and "Testifying Jesus because He took my sin and washed it away."

There's no holding back as Amanda sings, "Ain't no doubt about it // I can get excited // God is moving // Oh to be a witness // Of His love and goodness // It keeps me singing." With lines like "I want to tell the world what He's done for me," it's impossible not to feel the urge to somehow, somewhere, share your own story with others. You don't need to stand on rooftops and shout it out! Be open for those divine promptings that nudge you to share what Jesus means to you. 

Go ahead, turn up the volume, and let the music help you to celebrate "Ain't my Jesus something!"

(Related scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 1:7; Psalm 107:2-3)

'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...

"Breathe A New Life – In Me" by Keith Garrett – When Faith Changes Your Story

Keith Garrett, also known as R.K.A. -  Keith Lessert, released a song called "Breathe A New Life (In Me)." The song is a call for renewal, to leave the past behind and embrace a fresh beginning. Garrett acknowledges that taking the first step to a fresh clean start isn't always easy, but you're not alone: "Eternity came and healed me within."   The lyrics give an example of the steps that lead to the change that God brings. Garrett reflects on days of self-reliance, stormy struggles, and a hardened heart. Living recklessly and being trapped in a cycle of pride and selfishness. You can run from God, but you can't hide… There will be moments in life when you realize that God is at your door. The moment that you let Him come in is when change happens: "But when I met You // You made it fade away…cause // You breathe a new life…" He doesn't come empty-handed, He brings freedom from chains, newfound vision, and purpose rooted in grace.  What ma...

Riley Clemmons - Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix (CCM)

Riley Clemmons has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix. The song 'Inside My Head' was born out of a season of pain and healing. As a result, the song has a way of speaking about life's difficulties that is accessible and relatable to everyone.  "As I was writing and dreaming up this record, "says Riley, "there was never a plan to create anything but honest music, born from hurting, growing, and healing. I collected songs for this body of work much like I collected every experience I found myself in the middle of over the past couple of years... the highs & lows, the conversations with God, the questions about my identity, the heartbreak, and the healing." Although the music addresses life's hurts, it does much more than that. The trials of life, according to Clemmons, are ordained by God so we can draw close to him. "The thread that began to connect them all quickly became the idea tha...
