I Dare You to Move

This song definetely is about living a life for Christ, forgetting what is behind and pressing toward the mark. I love this song. It also challenges me to resist the defeating thoughts within in myself and MOVE.

It is about Religion. I don't think lead singer Jon Foreman would accept an interview for an article titled, "100 GREATEST SONGS IN CHRISTIAN MUSIC ," if the song wasn't Religious/Christian based otherwise! Which he did.

CCM Magazine presents 100 Greatest Songs In Christian Music This song is about a man at different stages of his life. It's a Christian theme of how we all stumble upon hard times in life, and about how God dares us to move and get back on our feet. It's about how there's a difference between who we are and who we should be Lead singer Jon Foreman said, "I love to write songs. I've been at it since I could play the piano. It's one of my favorite ways to pass the time. Music helps me sort out who I am, so my songs usually end up being somewhat autobiographical. I've always felt the deepest connection with honest songs, so I try to write with sincerity." Foreman went on to say that this song, "is an attempt to honestly face the gap between who I am and who I want to be; between the way the world spins and the way it should be. I've heard that we only use a small part of our brain. Maybe our soul is the same way. And maybe we're half asleep most our lives, simply reacting to the stimulus our brain receives. Action, true action, is rare indeed."

How do you get anything to do with religion out of this? To each his own I suppose. So I would say it's definitely NOT about Christ. It's about that moment when you're broken, and you just have to finally DO something. Anything. Get up and walk. Go to the store. Get your life back.
