Why did I write this song?

It was Fall 2017 when I wrote this song. I guess I felt like I had wasted a lot of time in the summer doing unimportant things. I sensed God was knocking on the door of my heart, inviting Himself in. God wants us always to put Him first on the throne of our hearts. There is a God-shaped hole in our hearts that only He can fill. But so often, we try to put other things in there to fill the void. For me, it was distractions and entertainment. Watching too many shows on Netflix. Not spending enough time just sitting at the feet of Jesus, loving Him…listening to Him…I was getting restless and agitated, anxious and depressed. Read More

Brokenness

The things I’m writing today are more questions than answers. Indeed, the story of my life right now seems to be a big question mark.

What is the purpose in brokenness?

I feel like Job from the Bible. The seemingly purposelessness of his suffering jolts me. I feel it. I can taste it. The human anger and confusion rising up in a man who suffered for no wrongdoing of his own. I don’t get it! Read More

Bring Me to Life

My new single, Bring Me To Life (The Winter Song) is available for purchase online! I wrote this song in the crazy Ontario winter (minus 35) of this year. It is a cry for God to come bring me to life…out of the wintery dark season of the soul, and into Spring! After such big losses and struggles in my life, it’s a song of hope and expectation of good things to come!

Thank you for visiting my website, and for supporting my music career! I can’t do this journey alone, and don’t want to, either! 🙂

With love,

I snapped this picture tonight as I’m sitting out on my brother’s deck in Vancouver. It’s almost 10pm. The night is cool, and a slight breeze is lifting the scent of burning trees through the air. Reminds me of a campfire.

I’m super excited to be a part of a NOW (Night of Worship) event this Sunday evening, March 15. My good friend David Wilkinson invited me to be a guest singer, and we had a practice last night with the band.

Man, the songs we’re doing are so much what I need right now! I’m blown away by how GOOD God is to us! There are times when we see little glimpses of His hand of goodness even (maybe especially) in times of brokenness and pain.

A Poem of Salvation

In a dungeon of deep darkness

My soul bound up in chains

Fear and despair my faithful companions,

Trapped in guilt and shame

Montreal Music Tour #2

Here I am once again at a Starbucks with Dana, trying to wrap my mind around the events of this week. Both Dana and I have said how this week has seemed so long! I think it’s because we’ve kept ourselves really busy, and we both feel very productive with all that we’ve been able to get done this week.

Montreal Music Tour #1

I’ve barely had a moment to sit down and write a blog about this tour yet!

Dana Marie and I have had so much fun so far! We began on Saturday night Read More

In tough situations, God is working on you

faithfulness, God, Jesus, Lindsey Minaker, Psalm 32

Posted on March 11, 2010

Wait for the LORD;
Be strong and take heart
and wait for the LORD.
-Psalm 27:14

Sometimes life can just seem overwhelming. You wonder where God is and what He’s doing…if anything! He seems so distant, so uninvolved sometimes. If you’re like me, you might blame yourself for whatever is going wrong. You think that you must have some secret sin that has made God so mad that He’s remaining silent. For a moment you forget His incredible grace…you forget the cross…

And then…

Suddenly, He touches your heart. He reminds you that He’s in control, that His love is unfailing and His faithfulness is unending. For a solitary moment, you get a glimpse of the bigger picture.

God has allowed these things in your life for your benefit. He’s making you the person you were meant to be…holiness is his goal. He knows exactly what you are able to handle.
In every tough situation, He is the Rock and Fortress, your Shepherd, who will never leave you to face things alone. As you and I keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, we will be able to not only endure these hard times, but we will be able to truly develop thankful hearts in the middle of even the most intense heartache.

You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance.
-Psalm 32:7
