A New Look, Same Table
If you’ve been here for a while, you already know this space has never been about building a brand for brand’s sake. It’s been about making room. Room to slow down. Room to open the Bible without rushing past the ache. Room to study deeply, worship honestly, and keep walking with Jesus when life feels messy, loud, or simply exhausting.
Still, every once in a while, it helps to freshen the sign on the door.
So yes, you’ll notice a new logo.
And yes, you’ll notice something else that’s been quietly building in the background for a while: music.
Not because I’m trying to “re-invent” Lyric and Letter, but because the Lord has been shaping what this ministry feels like in real time, one season at a time. If you’ve read along this year, you’ve seen that shaping show up in the themes I keep circling back to: returning from drift, coming back to the narrow road, learning to keep the flame burning, and letting the Word have the final say when feelings, fear, or fatigue try to take over.
What’s Changing (and What Isn’t)
What isn’t changing is the heartbeat:
Lyric and Letter will continue to be about Scripture first. Not self-help. Not hype. Not spiritual shortcuts. Just the steady, sanctifying work of God through His Word, with Jesus at the center.
What is changing is how I’m pairing the Word with atmosphere.
Over the past year, I started writing pieces where I invite you to “play the video above as a musical backdrop” while you read and study. That wasn’t a gimmick. It was a real need.
Some of you study late at night when the house finally goes quiet. Some of you study with anxious thoughts that won’t settle. Some of you are rebuilding concentration after hard seasons. And sometimes, a gentle soundbed helps the heart stay present long enough to actually hear what the text is saying.
So moving forward, you’ll see more intentional pairings of study + sound: blog posts, verse mapping sessions, and longer-form teachings that include an optional instrumental layer.
That’s it. Not a major overhaul. Just a small, meaningful layer added to the table.
A Thank-You for this Year
I don’t want to move into a new year without saying this plainly:
Thank you for staying.
Thank you for reading posts that weren’t “quick inspiration,” but slow work. Thank you for walking with me through themes like the wilderness, the mountain, the discipline of God, and the tenderness of His shepherding. This year held moments that felt like stepping into thin air and trusting God to meet us there, and I’m still in awe of how He keeps proving Himself faithful. Lyric And Letter Studios+1
It also held the quiet kind of mercy I didn’t want to miss, the kind you only notice when you stop long enough to look back and realize: the Lord has been carrying far more than I understood in the moment.
And if I can be honest, that’s one reason the music matters to me. It’s a way of marking the moments. A way of saying: this mattered. This was part of the story. This was the Lord keeping His hand on the thread, even when I couldn’t see the full tapestry yet. Lyric And Letter Studios
Watch the Welcome Video
If you’ve been with me for two years, this video isn’t “new information” as much as it is a gathering point, a way to name what Lyric and Letter Studios is becoming as we step into a new year.
Listen while you read (music you can study to)
Here are a few starting points, especially if you like reading with an instrumental backdrop:
And I’m keeping everything collected here so you can press play and stay focused:
One Small Invitation
If you’ve been quietly reading for a long time, I would love to know you’re here.
What kind of content has served you most this year?
Deep-dive teaching?
Verse mapping sessions?
Blog posts you can read slowly with Scripture open?
Music-backed study time?
Leave a comment, or send me a message, and tell me what has helped you stay in the Word. I’m building for real people, not algorithms.
