"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)

"Holy (In The Valley)" by Caleb Andrew: Finding His Greatness in the Valley

What if worship wasn't just for mountaintop moments? Caleb Andrew's debut single, "Holy (In The Valley)," addresses this very question. Caleb shared that this song has been in the making for 10 years. What started as a chorus and bridge written during an intense encounter with God's presence has since grown into an anthem for his life.  God's holiness doesn't fade when our life grows heavy! In other words, our God not only meets us in triumph, He also walks with us through uncertainty. The lyrics declare, "You are holy // In the valley // You are holy," turning our gaze from circumstance to Him, our Lord. When Caleb sings, "There in my weakness // You see greatness," he captures the heart of persevering faith. This song empowers you to choose to worship Him, even before a breakthrough. The lyrics have become Caleb's daily reminder: "will you let trials silence your song, or will you sing anyway?" The bridge commands cour...

'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...
