"What A Friend" by Tania G: A Modern Take on a Timeless Hymn


"What A Friend" by Tania G is a fresh, modern take on a timeless hymn, reimagining its message of comfort and connection with Jesus. This is the third single from her upcoming EP of reimagined hymns, and this song reminds us Jesus is a friend who understands and shares our sorrows, bearing our burdens and offering comfort. Life brings losses and gains, but He walks with us through it all, if we let Him! 

Tania G - What A Friend"What a privilege to carry // Everything to God in prayer!" is the second key message in this song, encouraging us to bring all of our concerns, temptations, and even the pain of rejection to God in prayer. There isn't a reason why we need to bear this on our own, "O what peace we often forfeit // O what needless pain we bear // All because we do not carry // Everything to God in prayer!" 

"Can we find a friend so faithful // Who will all our sorrows share? // Cause He knows our every weakness // Take it to the Lord in prayer." Sure, He knows what is going on, even before we do, and He knows the weight we feel of life's trials, but still… He wants to hear it from us. Share them with Jesus through prayer. 

This revisited song is a beautiful invitation to lean into His compassion. Through trials, weakness, or worry, He's always near. So, when you're carrying heavy loads, may this song be a reminder that you can hand them over to Him. But it's not just the heavy loads that He is interested in, He also hopes you'll share your other thoughts as well.

(Related scripture: Matthew 11:28-30; Psalm 55:22; Hebrews 4:15-16)

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 ...
