"Son of God" by Chidiya Ohiagu: Hope That Resonates


Chidiya Ohiagu releases a new rendition of Corry Asbury's song "Son of God" (2016). The message and intent of the song are just as relevant today as they were nine years ago. Chidiya has upgraded the song with a bit more tempo and captivating energy. The song is a reminder of God's grace, sacrifice, and eternal hope, and we're confident that this rendition will quickly deserve a place in many playlists.

Chidiya Ohiagu - Son of GodAlthough the original has been around for so many years, it still deserves a closer look at its message and intent. In short, the song invites us to stand still and think about what Christ's love really means to us.

The song starts takes us back to "… a place of sorrow and love," where our Lord and Savior bore nails, thorns, and unimaginable pain… Not for Himself, He did it all for us. These words aren't heavy-handed; they're intended as a tender reminder of the redemption that He made possible for us. The driver was His love for us, His willingness to pay the price on our behalf, so that there is a way back for each one of us. "There is a place for all who will come // His arms are open // Our sins are washed white in His blood," emphasis on "His arms are open," because this part of the song is a constant reminder that there is also room for personal connection. He invites us to "Come find your home," an invitation that extends His warmth and love to anyone who is feeling lost or unworthy.

What makes this track special is the reverence and intimacy. When Chidiya sings about rivers of mercy flowing endlessly or the promise of seeing His face one day, you feel it touching your heart and soul. "Son of God," a lifeline for everyone. Take a moment to listen  -  you won't regret it.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 53:3-5; John 3:16-17; Revelation 5:12-13)

"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....

"Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller: A Tender Tribute to a Loyal Friend

Beneath this gentle Americana-style song, "Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller, is the heartbreak of a seven-year-old boy. The day his grandson had to say goodbye to his dog, Tucker, he asked Stephen, "Will you write a song for Tucker? Can we pretend he's still around?" How can you not say "Yes" to such a request?  This song offers comfort by simply being honest. Instead of dramatizing the grief, the message sits with it and invites the listener to reflect as well. It's lines like "Sing the song to Tucker, sing to all dogs gone away" that remind us that precious memories endure. Have you ever asked yourself how to comfort a grieving child? I know that these situations often remind me that we're all searching for hope after more than one loss! On top of that, how can you extend that hope to a grieving child? Even in situations like the loss of a dear four-legged pet, there is a message of faith to be found: "Sing to God, the...
