"Fully Alive" by VoxMusic: Finding Your True Identity Through the Cross


What does it mean to be truly alive? The New England worship collective VoxMusic explores this question in their latest single, "Fully Alive." The song is a reminder of our "complete identity" in Christ. An authentic life can't be found in perfection, but we can find it in God's unconditional acceptance of our imperfection (our brokenness). 

VoxMusic - Fully AliveThe opening verse immediately disarms our fears: "You're not disappointed in me // You meet me in my humanity // You see my brokenness and lean in close // No matter where I run, you call me home." Instead of running away or thinking that we can't come close to God because of our flaws, we're invited to accept that "There's no distance from your love // I belong to you, I'm fully alive // Through the power of your cross." 

The song celebrates the undeniable truth that "I am seen as blameless in your sight // Shame consumed in perfect sacrifice." Because "Your mercy triumphs judgment every time." 

Whenever you are unsure what true belonging feels like, then listen closely to the chorus: "I belong to you, I'm fully alive // Through the power of your cross // There's no distance from your love." Our identity isn't based on who we are or what we have accomplished. Our true identity can be found through the cross, and through the cross we are home in God's heart. 

So, take a moment to give this song a listen. May it remind you that you're fully alive in Him.

(Related scripture: John 3:16; Romans 5:8; 1 John 4:16)

Skillet - Valley of Death (CCM)

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...

"In the Room" by Matt Maher feat. Chris Brown: A Heartfelt Desire for Divine Presence

Matt Maher's collaboration with Chris Brown, 'In the Room,' is a soul-stirring Christian song that encapsulates the profound longing to witness transformative moments in the presence of God. The lyrics express the desire to be present when God's power touches broken hearts, ignites faith, and brings healing. The song's verses convey a yearning for those irreplaceable instances when heaven and earth intersect, leading to changed hearts and restored lives. The chorus's declaration, ' I just wanna be in the room when You move,' beautifully encapsulates the eagerness to witness God's miraculous work up close. The bridge's vivid imagery of tearing off the roof and pushing through the crowd reflects the determination to encounter God, no matter the obstacles. The repetition of the bridge emphasizes the earnest plea to witness God's breakthroughs and freedom. 'In the Room' is an invitation to be part of moments that are greater than oneself...

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...
