PIONEER
The newest album by Red Letter Society artistically associates seasons and emotions of life and the truths of God’s Word with geographical locations. In the song “OCEAN” we are reminded that because of Jesus our sin can no longer break the relationship we have with him. We are given grace that we could never earn. In “VALLEY” we know that God turns our mourning into joy! In “CANYON” we are reminded that the grace, love, and joy we receive is endless. God is infinite, which means we can never reach the end of his goodness. In “MOUNTAIN” we are reminded that we are called to set our eyes on Jesus and live within his presence.
Inspired by Hebrews 12, each song in the album “PIONEER” is a reminder that God is not unable to relate with us. God is not distant. God is not even leaving us here in our suffering hoping we can figure it all out. The Creator and King of the universe has endured far more than we can imagine in order to create and pioneer the path that leads us to Him.
Therefore, since we also have such a large cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us lay aside every hindrance and the sin that so easily ensnares us. Let us run with endurance the race that lies before us, keeping our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. For the joy that lay before him, he endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
-Hebrews 12:1-2
