"Take Me Higher" by Christian Reign: Rising Above Life’s Weights with Faith


"Take Me Higher" by Christian Reign is an upbeat song that grew out of a period where everyday life felt somewhat boring, the deadlines, bills, and the quiet pressure to keep pushing your limits. Christian shares, "So me and my best friend decided to spend a week chasing small moments of light: a spontaneous laugh in traffic, a child dancing in the supermarket aisle, the calm you feel when worship cuts through the noise. We wanted a song that bottled those flashes of joy and pointed them upward." 

Christian Reign - Take me higherThe song has such an energy: "Morning breaks, my spirit wakes // Grace rolls in like ocean tide." Christian sings about leaning into God's rhythm when life feels heavy, "When the weight of the world says 'stop' // Lord, You flip the pressure into pop." The chorus was built for shouting in the car (with the windows down!!): "Take me higher - oh-oh! // Lift my heart on fire // Jesus, You inspire." 

Lines like "Your melody erases chains" and "Hope keeps pulsing through my veins" keep reminding us that faith leads to freedom. Christian shares, "Each line is a reminder to lift our spirits high, believe in God's love, and let it carry you higher than the daily grind." 

May this infectious groove and uplifting message help you to focus on God and cut through life's noise.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 34:4-5; John 8:36)

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...

"Turn to You" by Mike Cunningham: A Veterinarian's Worship Journey

Mike Cunningham is a veterinarian from Ohio. He traded his country tunes for worship music after discovering God's call on his life. In this debut single, "Turn to You," Cunningham explores what it means to seek God in a world that is so clouded by chaos and lies. He boldly asks the question, "In a world so torn with darkness, can a miracle set us free?" Looking at the chaos and mess around us, a situation that makes life feel quite overwhelming for many, it's His miracle that truly gives us hope. Cunningham reminds us that Jesus isn't just a distant figure that once walked on water and healed the blind, He is there for you and walks by your side. He is ready to guide you (if you let Him), even through your darkest nights. When everything is shaking beneath your feet, He is the one that you can lean on. "You are the way, the truth, and the light," bringing the clarity that we desperately need in our lives today.  May this song turn your gaze ...
