Wednesday has rolled around again, and we have been given another opportunity to praise our great God for the provision of Jesus Christ! Today’s song has an ancient hymn feel to it, but it was written in 1989 by Dawn Rodgers and Eric Wyse.  I’m talking about the most excellent song “Wonderful, Merciful Savior.”  Published through Word Music, I first worshiped the…

Worship of God is one of the greatest joys offered to us.  It’s what we were made for and where are souls find completeness.  However, worship of God is not just a joy offered to us.  It’s also an act commanded of us, as Psalm 100 so beautifully captures: 1 Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth. 2 Serve the LORD…

Welcome to the first “Wednesday Is for Worship” here in 2013! The beginning of the year is always filled with much mystery and excitement as our minds try to forecast what the year may hold. If you are a follower of Jesus Christ, certainly you should hope that the new year will bear growth in your walk with Jesus. In fact, you…

It’s the Wednesday before Christmas.  My heart is full of the joy of the season, and I’m so glad that Jesus Christ took on flesh and dwelt among us!  In doing so, He lived the life that we can never live, that sinless life in complete obedience and holiness to God.  But, He also did more.  He not only lived the life…

I pray your Wednesday is a blessed one!  Whatever the circumstances, if you’ll take the time to worship today, then undoubtedly blessed your day will be, and I’ve got just the song to help you.  It’s called “Joseph’s Lullaby” by MercyMe. It’s the only original song off MercyMe’s 2005 “The Christmas Sessions” album.  There are many, many songs focused on Mary and…

When the Lord saved me in 1997 at the age of 17, I had artists like Snoop Dogg, Dr Dre, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Led Zeppelin bumping and rocking in my car stereo system, but my much more sanctified and spiritually mature future wife began to introduce me to Christian artists.  One band that really moved me into listening to more Christian music…

‘Tis the season to be jolly!  Over the next few weeks, WIFW will take on Christmas music, focusing on songs that help us keep Jesus Christ, the reason for Christmas, at the center.  Today’s song is “Welcome to Our World.” There are so many great Christmas songs, but in my opinion, this is one of the best. Written by Chris Rice in…

It’s the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, and I have so many things to be thankful for.  How about you?  To help you give thanks, we’re going to go a little bit ancient-modern here, all the way back to 1882.  In that year, the blind George Matheson penned a song that gets to something that I am so very thankful for.  He called it…

It’s the Wednesday after the Tuesday that saw what felt like the biggest election of my voting lifetime.  Christian, whether or not your presidential candidate won, here’s a song to remind you that more than a president with a fluctuating approval rating and sin nature, you have a King who is perfect and worthy of all praise.  Even better… You didn’t elect…
