It has been so beautiful to get to release some new, yet familiar—even tried and true songs—in this season! One of those is the song, “Breathe” paired with another beloved song, “Let it Be Jesus.”

Today, I’ll take you back to the seasons I was in when I first began to sing and lead both of these beautiful songs. They were very significant seasons in my life and in my spiritual formation, and to merge them together on this new album is such a joy. It’s amazing how songs can truly become guideposts and guardrails in our journey, even a gateway to surrendering more of our heart to God’s heart! 

We’ll kind of walk through that gateway together, using these two songs, and talk about how God wants these proclamations we sing to become realities in our hearts and lives. “God, I breathe Your Name above everything,” is more than just a beautiful lyric! It’s a posture of resolve and rest, and a deep trust that everything we need is found in Jesus. 

I’ll talk to you soon!

Today we will kick off a spring series in celebration of NEW (but familiar!) music—my EP “You Revive Me”, releases THIS WEEK wherever you listen to music!

I’ve named today’s episode “Up ‘Till Now”, because this album (that will continue to unfold throughout the spring) feels like an Ebenezer moment, to stop and say, “Up ‘till now, the Lord has been our help!” He has been so faithful, so kind and true, even through some of the hardest seasons in life.

Also, as promised, today I will share with you what I wrote and read at my precious Mama’s celebration of life! I hope that it will help remind you of your own legacy that you are leaving, or perhaps even help define it! 

I look forward to walking with you this spring. 

I’ll talk to you soon!

If you or someone you know has experienced loss this season, you’ll want to listen and pass this one along. 

There will be more to come with sharing some beautiful truths that I’ve learned and received from my sweet Mama’s legacy. But for now, this is me letting you in on some of the last days and hours of her precious life here on earth. 

When we released the beloved hymn, Be Thou My Vision, on November 10th, I could never have imagined that my mother would go Home to Jesus just eleven days later. This song would become a prophetic anthem for me to hold onto and sing over this season. 

Whatever you are walking through this season, I pray that this episode (and this song) meets you in the most powerful way!

Okay, so this one made me weepy! Today we’ll be in Psalm 118 which is a part of the Hallel—a collection of six Psalms (113-118) that have been sung and recited on joyous occasions and festivals all throughout Israel’s history. We’ll remember together that Jesus would have sung these very Psalms as a little boy, as well as his disciples, and Psalm 118 was sung by Jesus and his disciples together just before they made their way to the Mount of Olives. It’s this beautiful picture of the power of worship when it’s rooted and grounded in timeless Scripture, but then experienced in the very presence of Jesus! 

May we be a part of the true worshipers who will worship in Spirit and in Truth, singing about God, TO God! Letting a new song arise in us, from our hearts to His. I’ll talk to you soon!

Today we’re in beautiful Psalm 19 where we’ll remember together that God set revelation in the heavens that is pouring out promise over us day and night, night and day!

This kind of framework, His order, His heart, His way, postures us to look into His rules, even His boundaries for us. To heed their warning—yes—but to also know the great reward in keeping His way! Certainly one of the greatest rewards is His very presence and even confession and repentance can afford us a closeness with Him that we might not find any other way! I’ll talk to you soon!

Today I’m going to tell you about some home renovations that Nate and I have embarked on this summer, just to let you in on a little bit of our world and the DIY adventures that we find ourselves swimming in! 

With all that going on, the Psalms have kept a steady STIRRING in me and I pray the Lord has used them in the same way for you! 

Today we will be in Psalm 66 together where we will explore the beautiful declaration of, “As for me, I will tell what He has done for my soul.” We’ll talk about leaning in with intentionality to tell God what He has done, as well as others! 

Yes, we’ll be reminded of the importance of surrounding ourselves with people who we experience Truth with. Friends who say, “Come and listen, let me tell you what He has done for me!”

I’ll talk to you soon!

Last week we talked about a holy resolve, when we have a shift in perspective upon remembering what is TRUE about God, about ourselves and the world around us. This week we’re going to sit in a bit of a holy tension together in Psalm 88, which is a passage that’s not easy to get comfy in!

But I am so excited to tell you that we have a VERY special guest joining us today! Adrienne Camp is going to lead us in coming around our Psalm for this week and I know you’re going to LOVE hearing from her! I got word that she has just released a beautiful bible study called As For Me: Life Through the Lens of the Psalms (available now everywhere you buy books!) and you know I had to have her join us! 

You are going to love the richness of her heart and life as she shares about the freedom in Christ that is ours when we trust God and look to Him and invite Him to work in our lives…even through hardship and struggle! I’ll talk to you soon!

I’m SO THRILLED that the SUMMER IN THE PSALMS series is back! I have needed this in my own life!! The lazy days of summer can be wonderful, but I find that it’s easy to drift from my rhythm of staying grounded in truth if I’m not careful. I hope this series meets you right on time in the same way! 

Today we’ll look at Psalm 73 together. It’s about as honest as it gets, I love it! We can glean so much from it as we witness the Psalmist sing of his struggle but most importantly, we get to see where he goes to find answers. 

The Psalmist is looking around him and things just don’t make sense. He has been careful to keep his life pure, but his only reward seems to be pain and turmoil. Yet, he looks around and sees people who don’t care a thing about God or His ways and they seem to have it all together! 

He assures us that he was tempted to say out loud 
what was REALLY in his head and his heart concerning his bitterness but—thankfully for you and me—he chooses a different path, a better resolve. One that you and I can see for ourselves today as we navigate a perplexing hour! I’ll talk to you soon!

Today you are going to get to hear some REALLY fun behind-the-scenes-stories from my new album “This is the Hour,” particularly from the adventure that was the photo shoot for this album! Even the little trick behind getting my hair to look “ablaze” in the wind for the cover of the song Valor! I had so much fun remembering the details of such a wonderful day, can’t wait to tell you all about it! 

 We’ll also dive into the beautiful and sacred truth of Christ’s life IN us! His life in us makes us a new creation and it also intrinsically ties us to the work that He is still doing on the earth and for eternity! Listen in to be reminded of this glorious work you are inviting into, even in the mundane! I’ll talk to you soon!
