"Always More" by Jeffrey Dickson: Trusting in God’s Limitless Provision


Jeff Dickson's song "Always More" was triggered by challenges that he hadn't seen coming. Jeffrey turned to writing songs as a way to deal with what happened and share his faith journey after being laid off from a ministry role he had held for 13 years. Hard decisions like this one were taken as a result of financial struggles at his church. The result is a song filled with hope and encouragement to trust in God's boundless provision. Lines like "When the famine comes, I'll always have a portion" emphasize that even in loss there's still abundance waiting for us to discover. 

Jeffrey Dickson - Always MoreThe chorus points us to God: "All these hills are yours but my eyes look above them / When my cup is dry, ask, who fills the ocean?" When we're facing challenges of our own, it can be easy to forget to lift our gaze beyond our struggles and look at the eternal Source of all things. Jeffrey emphasizes the freedom we have… the freedom to let go, to love freely, and to give generously because "there is always more." This is such a powerful message for anyone who's feeling stuck or discouraged. 

May "Always More" encourage you to place your trust in God's limitless possibilities and remind you that we too are conduits of His endless grace.

(Related scripture: Ephesians 3:20; Matthew 6:33; 2 Corinthians 4:17-18)

'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...

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...

"Change Coming On" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Feeling the Shift Towards Hope

Ever feel like life's a bit… frosty? Or that you're longing for something more profound and meaningful in life? Robert Peterson and The Crusade connect with that feeling. In their second release, "Change Coming On," they explore the search for meaning and change. Robert Peterson, who has been playing music since his early teens, has an interesting approach to writing lyrics. He is especially careful that his lyrics do not immediately lead to people labeling the song as "Christian," and tries to avoid classifications like "Christian Rock" so that he can reach a larger audience with his message. People who otherwise would be turned off by overt religious references. "Change Coming On" accomplishes this with subtlety and depth. The song opens with the image of being "all alone on a crowded city street," creating a feeling of isolation and longing. As the song continues, a powerful awareness is building up, "I can feel a chang...
