Will you follow the noise or the Light?  Fear has a way of turning up the volume. It crowds in with “every little move,” whispering doubts, replaying old defeats, dressing up lies to make it look like the truth. For The Kingdom created the song “Not Today” around that exact battle — the challenge of recognizing the (outside) voices that tempt you to choose roads that pull you down, roads that “leads to the darkest night.”   The song refuses to go down that road. Instead of caving to the noise, the singer feels “a spark inside” grow into something that nobody can extinguish: “This burning in me now, no one can put it out.” A spark that ignites His fire in you, leading your way to a brighter path, and finding the confidence to stand your ground and keep moving forward.  That kind of confidence doesn’t come from just our own willpower. Psalm 16:8 points us to the real Source: “I have set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.” No...

Can worship survive a season without answers?  Some seasons don’t resolve on schedule. “I’m Still Going to Praise You” by Die Taube ( ‘the dove’ ) was born from one of those seasons — infertility sitting alongside a father’s cancer diagnosis, disappointment stacking on disappointment. The song is part of an upcoming album, Pilgrimage, releasing one song per month until December. The album is a crossing, not a recovery, not getting back to who one was but coming through changed. The opening line of the song sets the whole tone: “Thank You has no seasons, worship does not wait.” God’s worthiness does not depend on our circumstances. Even when circumstances stay unresolved, we decide to look beyond our circumstances to praise and worship Him.  Notice what the second verse admits. “When I feel like I’ve got nothing and other times so much”  — our praises aren’t conditional on constant victory. The song is honest about fluctuating faith, and pairs it with a steady choice underneat...

Even in loss, Jesus was already there.  Dolly Parton passed away on August 25, 2026, at age 80, after a brief battle with cancer, surrounded by family in Nashville. For seven decades she sang about faith, poverty, grace, and home — and one of her earlier duets (with Zach Williams) carries a message that fits her passing perfectly. In “There Was Jesus,” Dolly Parton and Zach Williams trade verses about the moments we miss Him most: “Every time I tried to make it on my own // Every time I tried to stand and start to fall.” Life doesn’t wait for permission before it crashes down. “When the life I built came crashing to the ground // When the friends I had were nowhere to be found”  — that’s grief. That’s a hospital room, a phone call you dreaded, a silence where a voice used to be. That’s seeing great people passing away. Where was God in it? “I couldn’t see it then but I can see it now,” the song answers. “There was Jesus.”   Psalm 34:18 says it plainly: “The Lord is near to t...

Is there really room at the table for you?  Picture a room full of people angling for a seat, thinking their may not be enough. That’s the opening scene of “Right Next To Me”, a song by Kate Stanford. She sings “I remember I was walking // To a room where I was fighting // For a seat, it was such a feat.” She wrote this song after going through a period of real exclusion, feeling the sting of being overlooked by people who should have made room for her.  As you listen to the song, you realize that she doesn’t stay bitter. “I don’t blame you for the way you looked past me unnecessarily,” Kate sings, and then she names the truth underneath the whole struggle: “Oh there’s no scarcity // We’re all a part of his story.” Competition would only makes sense when we think His love will run out. The good news is that it doesn’t.  Paul writes to the Roman church, a group split by ethnic and religious division. His words cut straight to this: “Welcome one another as Christ has wel...

Do you know God, or just know about Him? We tend to treat prayer like a fire extinguisher — like something we only break out in case of an emergency. Rayford wrote “Falling in Love” after asking himself how it makes God feel when we haven’t spent anytime with him. Just sitting down with Him. Not to ask for anything. Just to be near to Him.  The song reminds us that relationships grow the more it’s tended. Even though “the depths of the knowledge of God” are too vast to ever fully explore, yet every step we set in our relationship with Him gets sweeter. “I’ll sit with you every morning, so I can hear what you say”  — that’s not a chore on our To Do list. That’s intimacy. And this intimacy woth God changes how you see everything else. Look at this line: “Your mercies are new every morning.” That line echoes Lamentations 3:22–23: “The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” Every single day,...
