Ep 191 Regenerating Your Marriage: Wherever it Stands

Whether you are standing for a marriage to be restored or living with your spouse, it is essential never to stop asking God to change you as an individual and as a couple so you can be more like Jesus in every season. 

One way to change is to stop believing the lies of marriage myths. Some of these myths may have even played a role in the breakdown of your marriage. We’ve all likely heard comments like “happy couples do everything together” or “children should come first.” While many believe these examples to be sound relationship advice, these myths actually do more harm than good.

Ep 193 An Honest Discussion About Feelings of Hopelessness and Suicide

“Only one thing made me want to live a little longer, to see you a Christian before I die”. (Attributed to St. Monica, Mother of St. Augustine). If your child whom you prayed for for decades continued to live a life of sin, would you still have the faith to believe for their conversion? We know that through St. Monica's faith, God made a great saint out of her son, Augustine! If you are a parent of a child who has fallen away from the Church, or you're the prodigal yourself, this episode of the #BecomeFire Podcast is for you.

St. Monica - Become Fire Podcast S1. Ep #9

A raw and deeply human story of love, loss, and searching for peace at the edge of the world. Key West Sunset" follows a mother’s endless prayers and a prodigal son’s drifting soul—meeting on the docks where faith, regret, and forgiveness collide. For anyone who’s ever longed for home, chased freedom, or prayed for a miracle, this song is a quiet prayer set to sunset and salt air.

Key West Sunset

CYBER CHORD writes songs the way a porch light holds a night: small, steady, and impossible to ignore. I work with AI as a true co-writer, then carve the lyric by hand and shape the track in Suno. The sound leans bare and human—country roots in the soil, a little rock grain in the teeth, and a faith-lit lift that chooses hope without preaching.

These are ordinary-room hymns: rings hidden in cotton, receipt-tape strings, a dress behind rain glass, a sink that cools while you find the words. Silence is an instrument here; sometimes there’s a full bar where the house gets to breathe. If a line can’t survive a campfire and a cracked mug, it doesn’t make the song.

If you’re new, start with the heartbreakers. They don’t shout. They stay. I believe in the holiness of the everyday, and in the quiet bravery of saying the thing before “later” takes it away.

No paid promo, no playlist buys, no cover-art pitches, no dance offers, no cold DMs. If it’s a pitch, the porch light’s off. If you’re a real listener, come in soft: pick one song, leave a genuine note (lyric or timestamp welcome), and hand it to one friend. That’s how this fire stays lit.

May your road stay open, your coffee stay warm, and your day be peaceful.
