In recent times, economic uncertainties, societal tensions, and the persistent threat of COVID have undeniably hindered the full immersion into the joy of the season.
Christian singer Sarah Reeves skillfully encapsulates this emotional conflict in her latest holiday track, "Christmas Feels Different This Year." Through her poignant lyrics, she adeptly portrays the struggle of setting aside personal challenges to embrace the true essence of this celebratory season.

From Western Journal:
The song is a tribute to moving through despair without sugarcoating it, a budding anthem that weaves within its emotionally evocative lyrics a push to never give up. Reeves captures the human spirit in every word, underscored by a melancholy melody that tugs at your heartstrings.
It is one of four new Christmas songs from the collection, according to The ChristianBeat.org. Reeves’ divorce became the personal catalyst to an expression of the heart that is resonating with many.
After all, beyond our individual, lesser known challenges, it is undeniable that we’ve experienced collective loss as a nation since Biden became president in 2020. The fabric of the United States has been shredded.
We’ve been forcefully divorced from our roots, from each other, from the absolute conviction that our nation could never fall like prior empires before us.
That has all seemingly gone away in the blink of an eye, but really over many years of deliberate planning by the Democrats, global elites, and cooperative entities. All we can do now is wait it out.
That’s until the day we figure it out, not too dissimilar to Reeves in her own predicament. It is the reason her snappy song has harbored such momentum.
