Will you listen to one Scripture song?

I built Vanguard Verse to help Scripture get heard, remembered, and retrieved in real life.

"I've started trading my normal car playlists for these songs."

A Note From CJ

At Grace, we ask Growth Group members to memorize 24 specific verses. I believe in that deeply.

But most of us need a better way to get the Word into normal life.

So I started setting the verses to music.
The result surprised me.
I keep listening to them.

Try More Than One Style

One song may not be your style. That is okay.

Vanguard Verse is not trying to make one sound for everyone. The goal is Scripture carried in music people will actually want to hear again.

So don't ask first, "Is this my favorite style?"

Ask, "Could this help Scripture stay with someone?"

Quiet / Reflective · Driving / Energetic · Worshipful · Family-Friendly · Folk / Acoustic · Classic Rock · Country · For Hard Moments

Titus 2:11–12 · Post-Grunge

Who Comes to Mind?

Someone may need this.

If one song came to mind while you listened, it may not be just for you. Think of one person — a parent, a Growth Group friend, or someone walking through a hard season — and send it to them today.

What song did you try, and did the style fit the verse?
Could this help you, your family, or your Growth Group?
What would make it more useful?
Who came to mind while you were listening?
