Podcast #123: “Abide With Me” by Matt Maher

Visiting a Vineyard in John 15

I have always loved the word abide. So many times English words don’t give enough umph as compared to their Greek or Hebrew counterparts, but abide is a good one. I wish it was as easy to accomplish as it is to understand the definition. “Abide With Me” by Matt Maher leads us to a conversation Jesus had with his disciples in a vineyard.

It is with this metaphor that we learn some significant lessons about abiding. It is here we also learn what kind of impact it could have on our lives if we can get it right.

Podcast #91: “Deliverer” by Matt Maher

Exploring Another Epic Song of Deliverance in Exodus

Music and lyric have always played an important role in helping us to remember. Sometimes I remember where I was in 1980-something just by hearing a tune waft through the air in the grocery store. That’s powerful! The Israelites used a song in Exodus 15 declaring the wondrous acts and mighty power of their Deliverer to help them remember the details of that experience. We can use Matt Maher’s song, “Deliverer” to direct us to study that same place in God’s Word and then allow it to help us remember what we’ve learned!

There are some powerful lessons in the song and this area of Scripture. Dive in today!

Podcast Episode #18: All the People Said Amen by Matt Maher & 1 Chronicles 16:36

Have you ever judged something too soon? Well, I did with this week’s song. However, what first turned me off to Matt Maher’s song, “All the People Said Amen”, now leads me to a section of Scripture I have long overlooked. That Scripture now makes this song one of my new favorites.
