    Write a Song Only God Will Hear | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 3

    In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray and Eric talk about the kind of creativity that no one else will ever see — songs, poems, prayers, and moments meant only for God. They start with one of the short reflections from 107 Things I Forgot to Say — “Write a song today that you don’t want anyone to hear but God.” From there, the conversation unfolds into the tension between honesty and performance, filters and freedom, and how humility often shows up in the cracks of our lives. Highlights: Why the most honest songs might be the ones no one else hears How to remove creative filters by writing “only for God” The cracks of humility where God truly meets us David, Psalm 51, and the difference between Saul’s hardened heart and David’s broken one How hidden worship restores authenticity and intimacy with God

    Music: The Universal Language | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 2

    Starting from a passage in Ray’s book 107 Things I Forgot to Say, Ray and Eric explore how music becomes the language of those who laugh, live, long, and love. The conversation moves from laughter as warfare and healing, to music as the breath of life, to songs that hold the ache of longing, to melodies born of love itself. This episode touches everything from Psalm 2’s laughter of God, to the cry in Appalachian bluegrass, to Korean worship melodies that carry generational pain and hope. It’s a rich, wandering conversation about sound, spirit, and the way music reveals God in the hidden corners of the human heart. -- Join Selah Creatives: Get access to all of Ray’s online courses, teachings, monthly live Zoom gatherings, and a community of over 100 like-spirited creatives → selahonline.teachable.com/p/selah-creatives Support Ray on Patreon: Receive his personal poetry, prose, and creative writings not shared anywhere else → patreon.com/rayhughes Visit Ray's Website: RayHughes.org

    Songs that Changed History | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 1

    In this first episode of The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes, we explore a question that has echoed through history: If the church changes the way it understands music and worship, can it change the world? From Luther’s hymns to the songs of the Wesley brothers, every reformation has carried a sound. Ray unpacks how music, creativity, and worship not only shape the church but ripple outward into culture itself. Join us on the porch as we rediscover the power of song to awaken hearts, reform communities, and carry the purposes of God into the world. In this episode, you’ll hear about: • Why every revival and reformation has a sound • How music has historically shaped faith and culture • Worship as more than music — a language of heaven • The role of creativity and wonder in carrying God’s purposes • Why the church’s song matters for the world’s future -- Join Selah Creatives: Get access to all of Ray’s online courses, teachings, monthly live Zoom gatherings, and a community of over 100 like-spirited creatives → selahonline.teachable.com/p/selah-creatives Support Ray on Patreon: Receive his personal poetry, prose, and creative writings not shared anywhere else → patreon.com/rayhughes Visit Ray's Website: RayHughes.org
