Love Song Picks: “He Say, She Say” and More from TJ Pompeo
TJ Pompeo, who we interviewed previously, writes some of the best love songs that both inspire us to believe in love and in God’s design for it. TJ recently released a new song “He Say, She Say” featuring Mathai who you might know from a previous season of The Voice. Go to http://tjpompeo.bandcamp.com to download the song and enjoy it above.
Here are some other great love songs from TJ, “If I Have To Wait (The Patient Pursuit)” one of my very favorites, and “Boy Meets Girl” from his EP of the same name. You can get them at his site above.

Rise: Get Up and Live in God’s Great Story Book by Trip Lee
“Rise: Get Up and Live in God’s Great Story” is the title of a book recently released by Trip Lee. Below Trip talks about why he wrote it and why he encourages this generation to RISE:
Society says youth is a time for carefree self-expression, but Trip Lee says God has called everyone to RISE from slumber, above low expectations, and to live for the risen King.
The world tells us that our early years are to be irresponsibly enjoyed rather than devoted to meaningful pursuits. We’re told that responsibility and commitment are burdens to be put off as long as possible. And so, most of us spend our youth in a sad state of slumber—sleeping in on life until we’re forced to get up. The problem is that life has already begun. It’s happening right now. And God has called you to live it.
In this powerful book, Trip Lee argues it’s time to wake up and RISE, to live the way we were created to live. Young or old, we’ve been called to live for Him. Right now. Young believers face the same problems as older Christians, but they feel them in unique ways. RISE addresses those core problems in an engaging, profound, and life-changing way.
Don’t just sit there: RISE!

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work! Never Give Up On Your Purpose and Dreams: A Glimpse of My Life-Changing Journey
You can do more than you think you can! No matter how hard life and circumstances get never give up on your God-given dreams! This is a glimpse at the year-long journey I recently finished that was very tough – but because I believed I was called to do it I stuck with it even when I thought I couldn’t make it. I also learned the important lesson that teamwork, and trusting God, makes the Dream work!
These young people featured in the video who were strangers to me at first have become some of my best friends and companions! We were thrown together into an apartment, people of all different ages, backgrounds and dreams (this has the making of a reality show right?;) and we learned how to bond together for a common Dream to serve others and share the love of Christ!
Find your purpose-people, your dream-partners (maybe by first supporting someone elses’ vision) and get to it, impacting those around you! You were made for purpose so never give up on it!

Video Pick & Inspiration: “No Better U” from V.Rose
This new year as we’re purposefully rising up into who we’re created to be let’s remember that we’re created fearfully and wonderfully in God’s love…
V.Rose’s latest music video is an uplifting tune that reminds you that God made you uniquely so there’s no reason for comparing yourself to others.

Trust, Believe and Live a Higher Dream: With God Nothing Is Impossible
Do not fear – no matter how your life may seem, a miracle is always possible – we were created for the extraordinary…
She thought she was an ordinary girl – but little did she know that she was made for extraordinary purpose that would deliver the gift of light to the world. When she surrendered her life to manifest what seemed impossible, she found out that the greatest dreams are birthed through great Love and miracles…
It may have seemed like a strange way to save the world but there’s such mystery and beauty in the way Love came down to be with us, rescue us from darkness and experience life as us so we can live with Him forever. Just as Mary let God’s dreams flourish through her life – plans that were greater and deeper than she could imagine – let’s do the same and be carriers of love and the greatest dream. Remember in this season and in the upcoming year that with God, nothing is impossible.
God is always greater than our circumstances and His purpose and promises are forever true. He is a God of miracles, marvels and great love for you and I, represented in the present He sent to live among us – Jesus, God incarnate, love personified…Trust that God’s dream and love for you is greater than your own will – He can do the supernatural in our lives if we surrender to a higher story. #letLovelead #Believe #bestill #bethemiracle #anythingispossible
“You are blessed because you believed that the Lord would do what He said.” Luke 1:45

The Lord Will Fight for You: Encouragement from the Word and an Inspirational College Student
Inspiration from the Halls of College…
We’ve featured Shirley’s inspiring videos (find her at FarAwayDistance on Youtube) before on SOAR. Since then she’s started college and has been learning to grow closer to God throughout the struggles and journey. In this video she shares how no matter what you’re going through God will stand and fight for you – you just have to trust Him with your battles.
Some of the verses Shirley shares in this video:
This is what the Lord says to you: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s.” from 2 Chronicles 20
What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? from Romans 8
This God—His way is perfect; the word of the LORD proves true; He is a shield for all those who take refuge in Him. from Psalm 18
The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still. from Exodus 14
From Shirley: Sorry it’s been so long! College is crazy! But you are BEAUTIFUL and I just want you to know that no matter what you’re going through, you’re not alone. God is with you no matter what you’re facing. Keep holding on. God is GREATER than whatever you are facing.
