"Dare to Believe" by Charis B: Your Leap of Faith Is Bigger Than Your Giant


You've stood in the valley surrounded by your giants, while doubters (including your thoughts) are whispering and telling you that you can't do this! The circumstances are roaring, but your courage is shrinking. But what did David teach us? He showed us that the victory isn't found in the size of our strength! Victory is found in the depth of our faith!

Charis B - Dare to BelieveThat's the key message of "Dare to Believe" by Charis B. The song is inspired by young David, who stepped forward with nothing but a sling and a song in his soul. Charis isn't retelling David's story, she's inviting you into it. "Nobody believed // But you and me," how often have you felt that way? Nobody else can see what God was doing in you. God equips you, and He prepares you for what is to come! You don't need approval, all you need is action.

"I stepped out // With a rock and a sling // I did trust you" … and Goliath fell.

That's God's protocol! Faith isn't passive, it's a leap, a choice. It asks us to say "yes" when everyone else says "no." The song pulls you forward, stepping out to face the battle, to walk through it, armed with the weapon that God gives us, eyes on the One who holds the outcome.

So what's your giant today? Fear? Rejection? Delay?

"Dare to believe. // Take that step. // … // Call on God's power. // Now is the hour."

You were made for this. Listen, partner with God, and then rise.

(Related scripture: 1 Samuel 17:45; Hebrews 11:1; Mark 9:23)

"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....

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.'

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...
