"Dusty Bibles (EDM Version)" by Josiah Queen: Modern Worship for a Digital Age


We live in a time where many people are glued to the screens of their smartphones, and the smartphone often takes precedence over the spiritual part of our lives. Josiah Queen's EDM version of "Dusty Bibles" has a message for the generation that is caught between tradition and technology. The remix by PHIN XVI turns the original version of Josiah's song into an electrifying track that resonates with younger Christians who grew up with EDM and dance music. Instead of having to choose between the music genres they love and worship, they can now experience both. 

Josiah Queen - Dusty Bibles (EDM Version)The song confronts a modern reality: we've got dust on our Bibles while our iPhones remain brand-new and are constantly updated. "No wonder why we feel this way," Queen sings, pointing at the disconnect that many experience between their faith and daily digital lives. He puts the question out there… After a decade of rapid technological advancement, have we unintentionally pushed our spiritual focus to the background? 

"We walk with our eyes closed, blind leading blind folks," a powerful metaphor for how we can drift away from God when we're not actively engaging with His word. Don't worry if that is also the case in your life, because this track offers you hope, direction, and calls you to action. 

Josiah's passionate message resonates through the electronic beats, urging us to reject complacency: "I'm so done being complacent, there ain't no replacement for a life in the light of your way." 

This isn't your typical worship song; it's a modern CEDM-style reminder that faith always remains relevant, even in our fast-paced digital world. The Christian EDM production makes the message accessible without diluting its power. So, why settle for spiritual stagnation when you can experience a vibrant, modern worship genre that gets you dancing and also energizes your soul? 

Go ahead and listen to "Dusty Bibles (EDM Version)." May beats and message remind you to open that Bible that's gathering dust and reconnect with the loyal Friend who's been waiting for you all along.

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...

"Heaven Country" by Jensen & Company: Where Faith Meets Fiddles

Jensen & Company's 'Heaven Country' features Heidi Jensen North. It's a song that bursts with an infectious Texas swing energy, with steel guitars, fiddles, and washboard rhythms that pull you into the vibe. Beneath this melodic energy is a message with a promise: heaven isn't just a destination, it's a homeland where every tear is wiped away!  Can you imagine streets where lions walk with lambs, hunger vanishes, and divisions dissolve into unity? What a contrast compared with today's world! One of the lines that stands out: "There's no divide - there's just one side // The Son is shining every day."  What if we were to start living today as citizens of that eternal country? What's stopping us? The song challenges us: "All the love that you've acquired here - it's your money // Be sure to fill your account." It's a call to invest in what truly lasts. You've never seen its glory, never heard its songs - but...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

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...
