“Brand New Life” by Delivering Light

The story of “Brand New Life” started one morning while I was listening to a Christian radio station. They received a call from a woman who had a real encounter with Jesus Christ through the song “God So loved” by We The Kingdom. She expressed her gratitude, as the song […]

“Songs for Every Season” by Dan Loch

Songs that endure are a treasure. Before the pandemic, I had the privilege of playing songs for the residents of the Philadelphia Protestant Home, a senior living community in Philadelphia, PA. Every Saturday morning, I would get my guitar, hop in the car, and drive down 95 into the city […]

Behind the Song “Motivation” by Aries Marquis

The music that I create is based, completely, on real experiences, real feelings and thoughts, or real experiences of others. It is authentic whether accepted or not. With my new single, “Motivation”, I have based this song on personal experience and thoughts. Pondering on something to write about, one night, […]

“Starting Here” by Ruthie Larbi

The beginning of a new year can bring a fresh start, renewed hope, and great expectations for what’s to come. This is what I initially thought when writing the final song for my EP, “Starting Here.” I decided to release the song on the first day of 2023, thinking it […]

“Direction” by Lifehouse Worship

The main inspiration for the song “Direction” comes from the conversion story of Paul in Acts 9. The sudden and dramatic nature of Paul’s change has always resonated with me. It is so encouraging to know we serve a God who can transform anyone’s life in a moment. Paul was […]

“The World Is Crazy Now” by Will Keizer

The world is crazy right now. Right? But is that so unusual? If you could look into the minds of nearly each generation, you’d likely find that they thought they were living in “crazy times.” How can you know if the times you are living in are truly the craziest? […]

“Love Letters” by Anna Victoria

In the depths of life’s mess, the dark and sleepless nights and in the midst of heartbreak and grief.. where is God? This question many of us face as we endeavour to make our way along the narrow road of our Faith journey is not an indication of weak faith […]

The True Story of “Dark Side of the Ocean” by Russ T. Shipp

“Dark Side of the Ocean” was a true labor of love that was literally over a decade in the making, with certain songs that I started writing when I was in college and had been tweaking ever since. When I conceived the story of the album around 2020, I changed […]

“ALL YE LEPERS” by Joshua Leventhal

Ordinary words capitalized. That always felt like a way to say a lot with little to me. Jesus is good in the Now. I’m living in the Meantime. The latter was the inspiration for one of the more personal songs I’ve ever written. I was going through the heart-crushing of […]

“My PlayStation 3 Games” – By Christopher Smith

Just for fun, I’d like to write about a hobby of mine — gaming! Specifically, video gaming (though I love strategic board games as well, possibly another time). On a recent JFH Podcast episode we joked about JFH covering video games, and in the back of my mind I’ve been […]
