God has been showing me what true love looks like the past few years and I’m shocked at how unloving some people (including myself) have reacted when things haven’t gone according to plan. The lyric “Love like this the world has never known” is so true because no one can love perfectly all the time. The beautiful truth though, is that God can trans...
Christ died, but He now reins in glory; still perfect and full of love. “You are my everything and I will adore you” is my favorite line from this song because it’s true. God opens my eyes and shows me His wisdom the stronger my faith grows and I am often left in awe. I adore how He takes care of me in the little and big ways. The four feet of snow...
Christ’s death and resurrection are stronger than the power of sin. Sin can take you further than you can imagine, but Jesus conquered all when He arose from the dead. The way to stop sinning is to fall on your knees and cry out to Jesus. Try it – it works. Favorite Lyrics
Do you know of a king who defeated their enemies by dying? This is backwards in human terms, but it’s how God works. What doesn’t make sense to us (in this moment) is part of a bigger plan. Favorite Lyrics
Death is no match for Christ! It’s a little ironic to me that in order to live in Christ we must die to ourselves. You mean I can overcome Satan by letting go of my “perfect” expectations and my will? Yes! As Queen Elsa in Frozen would say, “Let it go”. Control usually comes from a place of selfishness and not God’s plan. Favorite Lyrics
I sang the old church hymn version of this song growing up countless times but I didn’t quite understand what “Jesus paid it all” meant as a child. I owe everything to Christ because I would be hopeless without Him, but this doesn’t mean I have to live with a weight around my neck waiting for Him to collect what I owe. I realize more and more that ...
Nothing can separate me from God. No speeding tickets. No unjust ruling. No negative opinion from others. Calvary covers it all and this is where hope is found. Mercy and grace abound and overtake all sin and shame as the line “my sin and shame, don’t count anymore” declares. Favorite Lyrics
I absolutely love the line “Death has lost and Love has won”! Christ sacrificed Himself in a manner that no one had before and ever can again. He was the image of perfection and still gave His life for this mommy who can be impatient when tiredness sets in and coffee has run low. Favorite Lyrics
Shame used to grab hold of me deeming me powerless and feeling less than enough. Give up working for the approval of others and something powerful happens. Christ comes in and His love fills every heartache, every disappointment, and every part that feels less than enough. God created me in His image and this is possible because His love flows like...
I am a Christian writer and editor that lives in northern Michigan and thoroughly enjoy music, movies, TV shows, books and other entertainment with a Christian focus. My favorite song is "Oceans" by Hillsong United because it reminds me that has big plans for me and everyone else who puts their trust in Him. There are many movies that have impacted...

- Overcome – Elevation Worship. This has become one of my new favorite worship songs. The lyrics are so powerful and really gets my heart focus off the world and onto heaven.
- Resurrecting – Elevation Worship. This is another one of my favorite songs and even though it is by the same worship team as the first I’m still going to put them back to back because they are both such different songs.
- Forever – Kari Jobe. This song so beautifully depicts the love of our Savior, His death on the cross for our sins, and the power that rose Him from the grave.
- Jesus Son of God – Brandon Heath. This song is an awesome reminder of who Jesus was and is. He lived a perfect life to become a sacrifice, pleasing and acceptable to God for the atonement of our sins.
