Point of Grace, the multi-platinum, award-winning group that has defined the sound of Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) for over three decades, is proud to announce the official radio and digital push for their latest powerhouse single, “Stand.”
Coming off the heels of their highly successful “Glorious Night” holiday tour, the trio—consisting of Shelley Breen, Denise Jones, and Leigh Cappillino—is turning their focus to a message of unwavering stability in a shifting world. “Stand” is a mid-tempo, harmony-rich anthem that serves as both a reminder and a challenge to the Body of Christ to remain anchored in the Truth.
Produced with the group’s signature blend of folk-inspired pop and lush vocal arrangements, “Stand” addresses the modern landscape of uncertainty with a biblical mandate. The lyrics echo the exhortation of Ephesians 6:13: “Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground.”
Five-time GRAMMY® Award-winning worship leader and songwriter Brandon Lake has answered the overwhelming cries of his fanbase by releasing the official collaboration version of his hit single, “When A Cowboy Prays,” featuring country music superstar Cody Johnson.
The track, which originally debuted as a solo effort in September 2025, became an instant viral sensation, with fans across TikTok and Instagram flooding Lake’s comments with one request: “Get Cody Johnson on this.” Today, that prayer has been answered.
“When A Cowboy Prays” is a rugged, soul-stirring ballad that explores the intersection of grit and grace. Inspired by the biblical promise in James 5:16, the song paints a vivid picture of a man whose faith is as weathered and reliable as his leather-bound Bible. With lyrics like “When a cowboy prays, it starts raining in Oklahoma / Long lost sons come home to mama,” the track celebrates the quiet, earth-shaking power of sincere, humble intercession.

“Refresh” is more than just a song; it is an intentional petition. Written as a response to the busyness and weariness that often characterizes modern life, the track calls for believers to slow down, realign their hearts, and invite the Holy Spirit to breathe life into the “worn-out” places of the soul.
Five-time GRAMMY® nominee and multi-award-winning artist Matthew West is kicking off the new year with a powerful reminder of God’s character. His brand-new single, “Good,” officially released on January 9, 2026, marks the artist’s first musical offering of the year and sets a profound tone of surrender and gratitude for the months ahead.
Known as one of Christian music’s most prolific storytellers, West wrote “Good” alongside longtime collaborator AJ Pruis. The song is a contemplative reflection on the nature of grace, drawing inspiration from the Book of Romans. It explores the transformative shift from striving for worthiness to resting in God’s unconditional love.

Written and recorded before his first Christmas tour with Point of Grace, which was reprised this past season, Gray recalls what led to the creation of “Comfort & Joy” that was produced by his son, Kipper: “I had gotten some painful news the day before we wrote this song,” he shares. “I almost cancelled the write, but at the last minute decided to go.
I was a bit broken hearted when I got there, but I noticed that as we (Point of Grace and I) talked about all the things that make Christmas ‘Christmas’ for us, I got caught up in the spirit of the season. And I experienced how even just that spirit—so saturated with Christ—has healing, restorative powers in and of itself.
“My spirit was lifted and, in spite of what was going on in my life, I think we wrote a pretty joyful song!” continues Gray. “Such inauspicious beginnings. I hope that Spirit finds you wherever you are and brings you tidings of comfort and joy.”
Expressing his thanks to radio for playing the song, Gray adds, “In a world where common ground is shrinking and shared experiences are more and more scarce, radio seems more meaningful than ever to me—for shaping culture, building up larger communities, broadcasting hope and for setting a large table millions can gather around.”
Following several Christmas tour dates with Point of Grace last month, including an event at Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC, Gray continued performing additional solo Christmas concerts, including one joined by Nichole Nordeman who is a featured guest on his Christmas Stories: Repeat the Sounding Joy album released in 2012.

Pam Ross’s“Reading Your Text” feels less like a breakup song and more like a moment of conviction—the kind that arrives quietly, unexpectedly, and lingers long after the noise fades. It is a song about distraction, yes, but more deeply, it is about what happens when unresolved pain pulls our eyes away from the path God intends us to walk.
Inspired by a real-life encounter with a driver swerving on the road, Ross reframes a moment of frustration into empathy. Instead of condemning the behavior, she asks a spiritual question many of us wrestle with: what kind of hurt causes someone to lose sight of what matters most? That question gives the song its moral and emotional weight.
The opening verse immediately establishes disorder: “I’m changing lanes with my signal off / Check my rearview for the cops.” From a faith-based lens, this imagery resonates as a picture of life lived out of alignment—moving forward without clear direction, watching for consequences instead of guidance.
When Ross follows with “You took my heart and I took your word / Then crashed into you when the lines got blurred,” the song quietly echoes Proverbs’ warnings about misplaced trust and blurred boundaries.
The chorus is where the spiritual tension becomes unmistakable: “I’m shifting gears with the sun in my eyes / While I read the text where you said goodbye.” Here, the “sun in my eyes” can be heard as truth trying to break through, while the fixation on the text represents our tendency to cling to what has already ended.
Spiritually, it reflects the struggle between holding onto pain and surrendering it to God—a reminder that healing often requires us to stop rereading the past and start trusting what lies ahead.
When the Road Becomes a Reckoning: Pam Ross’s ‘Reading Your Text’ and the Cost of Carrying Hurt Alone
Stream & Enjoy
Musically, “Reading Your Text” remains grounded and restrained, allowing the message to lead. Ross’s vocal delivery is honest and vulnerable, never theatrical. That humility serves the song well, reinforcing its deeper meaning: this is not a story about blame, but about awareness.
The bridge is perhaps the song’s most sobering moment: “One hand on the phone and one the gear / Using my elbow to steer the wheel.” From a Christian viewpoint, it’s a stark image of divided focus—trying to control life with one hand while refusing to let go of what weighs us down. Scripture often reminds us that we cannot serve two masters, and Ross illustrates that truth without preaching it.
Ultimately, “Reading Your Text” feels like a gentle but firm reminder to place our burdens where they belong. It invites listeners to consider what they’re holding onto, what they’re staring at, and whether it’s keeping them from seeing God’s direction clearly.
Pam Ross doesn’t offer easy answers here—but she offers something just as meaningful: reflection. And sometimes, reflection is the first step toward healing, repentance, and renewal.
