"Turn To Him" by Julia Igwe: A Heartfelt Call to Seek Jesus


“Turn To Him” by Julia Igwe is a personal reminder for anyone who is feeling weighed down by the struggles and weight that life can cause. Julia shares her story of how she was lost. She encourages us to see that true salvation isn’t found in empty promises or temporary fixes, but in Jesus. The lyrics share the pain she felt, as well as the shame and exhaustion. It’s in these moments that giving up seems so tempting. Julia doesn’t leave you there. She gently calls you to look upward, turn to Jesus, because He is the one who sees your tears and hears your cries. He wants to bring His peace into your life if you let Him.

Julia Igwe - Turn To HimJulia is convinced, “He wants to dry all of your tears,” and “He will part through the sea,” now that she too has experienced God’s loving power to rescue and restore in her own life. She encourages us to call out to Jesus in prayer, knowing He’s ready to wrap us in His love and fill our lives with true joy.

This song is a simple and yet powerful nudge to stop searching for love and happiness elsewhere. Those surrogates will not satisfy like Jesus can. Turn to our Savior! He promises to be everything we need and brings us hope and the fullness of life.

“Turn To Him” was the song Julia needed to hear when she was lost. May this help you focus on Him alone, and remember that Jesus loves you.

"Hiding Place (Live)" by DBU Chapel Worship: Forgiven, Covered, and Free

How often do you hear worship songs being sung live in the comforts of your day-to-day living? For sure, there are a dime a dozen. Some you commonly share with the person next to you, featuring songs by popular Christian Artists. But there's a certain form of unique sincerity when one discovers a worship song that is yet to break through to a larger audience. This is how the song "Hiding Place" by DBU Chapel Worship featuring Olivia-Grace McKern felt like when I first listened to the song. It felt like a new testimony being told, of one's dedication to find God and remain in his presence.  Taking root from Psalm 32, the song is a collaboration of Olivia with a host of songwriters from the DBU Chapel Worship. Enriching her experience as a songwriter and moving her through the songwriting process. In perhaps a reflection of what the song eventually became, it wasn't so that Olivia conveniently hid behind the DBU Chapel Worship songwriters/musicians. This song is a c...

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...
