"A Love So Real (20th Anniversary Edition)" by Thoughts And Notions: Healing Through Unconditional Love


The 20th Anniversary Edition of “A Love So Real” by Thoughts And Notions is a reimagined classic of theirs. It has the 90’s pop/rock vibe, with a few modifications, and retells a message about God’s unwavering love. As the band recreates 20th Anniversary Editions of their favorites, it feels like stepping into a nostalgic time machine. The world has changed, but God's immense love for us has never changed! It's a message worth retelling for the many early-day fans that are now going through their mid-life challenges.

Thoughts And Notions - A Love So Real (20th Anniversary Edition)Thoughts and Notions sing about feelings of brokenness: “My days have darkened and it looked so bleak // For my troubles made me weak.” The song points out that we're not going to find the answer inside ourselves, “Though I had no hope // Though I had no love,” and here it comes.... “You’re my shining light.” No matter what we're going through, the key to real change is God! He paid it all for us, He prepared the way forward, “I’m saved by a love so real // For you have mended my shattered life.”

We all have moments in life where we feel defeated, “I thought that my life has become so useless // For I have stumbled and was lost,” but with God by your side there is always a way out. The song reassures us that we all may be redeemed through His love if we let Him come into our lives. This song is a song for wounded hearts and a reminder for all that God’s love for you is unconditional and that He wants to care and provide for you if you let Him.

(Related scripture: Psalm 103:3-4; Romans 5:8; Lamentations 3:22-23)

"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....
