I think this EP is a great example of a person who wants to rebuild their relationship with God again, they know they should be burning, they know something is missing and so they’re making a step forth to seek God again. Raw, real emotions with everyday struggles of the heart. Psalm 139 really resonates with this, being in this pit, this shadow, lukewarm, however, acknowledging this and seeking God for help, remembering His good work, all the blessings and seeking His light again. 💗
When The Night Comes Around and Take Me Back really pulled at my heartstrings and brought tears to my eyes. But it's not all just emotions, but a true encounter with God and the desire to be with Him always. Thank you for providing that through your music. Also, thanks for Patient & Kind, which was my most listened to song on Spotify for 2023. It is a constant reminder of God's attributes that generate gratitude for, and worship of, Him.
I didn't know Jonathan Ogden until years later. I started out as a Rivers and Robots fan back in like 2013-14ish... The R&R songs are always nostalgic for me as I think back in that season of my life 2014-2018 ish when I was in bible college. So to hear a new set of songs with that vibe and a new vibe is TOO RAD. Back in bible college, I was steeped in doctrine. And that's why R&R was really attractive to me. Some of those older R&R songs had MASSIVE doctrine in songs. Love them still... And to compare those older River & Robots songs that were just deep in doctrine and then to hear these prayer-type songs, causes me to reflect on my growth over the years and to see how much my spiritual life has grown and matured. I can't speak for J. Ogden, but I can speak for myself: That these types of songs on this album are much more personally relevant today than they might've been a decade ago as I've matured in the faith. I probably would have avoided this album back in the day when I was only in awe of doctrine. And now, a decade later I'm just desiring a pure and simple heart of love for the Lord and for others - desiring only that my faith and doctrine leads to love and good works. Jonathan, this album for me brought me to a place where I meditated upon my spiritual growth over the years, which included many highs and lows. When music can cause you to reflect in hopes to learn how to become that better person, it's unexplainable. THANK YOU for your music through the seasons and this past decade. You are appreciated across the pond my friend. Shalom
You sang out raw prayers and cries of the heart. I could relate to every song at some level. I thank God for your life. Thank you for your vulnerability because at the end of the day we all have our struggles but this EP is a little reminder that His grace is sufficient.
Wow. ‘Take Me Back’ is so rich with captivating authenticity. I love the layering and depth of soul that draws the listener in…it’s really stunning. What an absolute breath of fresh air in a world full of pretty empty things!
Totally agree with you Jonathan, thank you to take us back to the Rivers & Robots vibes, your music is a blessing in many ways, but this flashback to R&R feels very very good, and I hope that for you was the same 🙌🏽
Jonathan, I must say, these songs are amazing. You and your friends have aced these. They sound very mature, there's great depth here, the mixing is awesome and the musicianship comes across readily. It does sound like a very coherent product. As much as i love your solo projects such as the seasons, i am enjoying other musicians all playing together to bring to us this sonic candy. The best thing about it all is your writing, its consistent, still as grounded in the word as usual and Christ-focussed. May you never lose sight of our Lord. THank you for pouring your heart and gift out and blessing us on our individual journeys.
This EP helped me grieve the loss of Mom in August 2023. I listened to patient and kind on repeat after my moms funeral. It brought comfort to my heart 🤍
As you say in the description, some songs feels like previous works with R&R but also it remind me the old songs from your previous EPs like the season serie, "take me back" song and "remind me" has too similar vibes and the some same words in the lyrics, you are a wonderful producer of music, as your personal work as your teamwork you make good and inspiring songs for worship the lord, this ep let me guess what is in my heart and what do i want to say to the lord, thats very special for me, from a worshiper to a worshiper thank you.
This is beautiful. Jonathan shows relationship, knowledge and understanding of God. Thank you for blessing us Jonathan. Hope to meet you one day brother.
I really appreciate your songs! I feel the presence of God listening to all of them, in every album you release. I thank God for your life and dedication. God bless you always, Jonathan! 🙏🏽❤
Truly an amazing track. I just got to see it now but it already sounds amazing. Your music inspires me so much and I can really hear the Lord talking through you. Amazing as always! Thank you for creating these beautiful songs! :D
Hi, i just found your music. literally right now your song shown up on my YT. thank you for the music, the beauty of the lyrics that you created. Keep blessed people thru your masterpiece. thank you.
The song Take me back reminded me of people back then who were singing Psalms as a worship to God. Since I'm going thru something right now, your song became my prayer, my kind of Psalm. God bless you, brother. Keep going. 🫂
YESSSS! I needed some new Jonathan Ogden. Your music always makes me draw near to God. It brings the joy and peace of the Lord to whatever season I’m in. His spirit shines through you man! Thanks for being faithful and sharing the gift he gave you
Hey jonathan thank you so much for this EP, you don't know how much this has helped me personally. I've been going through a rough patch in my relationship with God recently and I've been talking with my family and friends about my struggles, but it has been difficult for me to open up to them cause they see me as a mature Christian and I don't want to let anyone down, most especially God... Hearing this ep just made me feel heard, understood... the message of each song was very profound, it really helped me process this difficult season I'm in. I ended up worshipping our God through your wonderful songs. Thank you so much and may God continually bless you and your team.
Though this is not a Christmas ep it's setting me up for a moody, spirit-filled Christmas. I won't be celebrating with family, but this will keep me good company :)
@jonathanogdenmusic I just bought this EP on iTunes and was curious, how many times would I need to listen to this UA-cam video to earn you the same as the £2.50 on iTunes (minus iTunes' fee). It can't be easy to be a musician in today's streaming music climate. Just curious! Thanks for the great album man 👍🏼

What a blessing Jonathan is to us all. Thank you so much Lord for your tender mercies and for all you've done for us. Love you Jesus x
So....probably my 10th listen-through now. Take Me Back is such a vibe and timely for me.
Same tho
Fs it’s my fav one on the ep
"Where else could I go? You have the words of life" - so powerful!!! Feeling these lyrics this morning
John 6:68. One of the things I love about Jonathan! He always sings Scripture. Love those lyrics as well!
John 6:68
“Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.”
Patience & kind is my favorite song from this ep
You sang out raw prayers and cries of the heart. I could relate to every song at some level. I thank God for your life. Thank you for your vulnerability because at the end of the day we all have our struggles but this EP is a little reminder that His grace is sufficient.
So thankful for Mr. Ogden’s life🥹🫶🏻
The Lord through his word in the lyrics of this music has comforted my heart countless times😌
Wow. ‘Take Me Back’ is so rich with captivating authenticity. I love the layering and depth of soul that draws the listener in…it’s really stunning. What an absolute breath of fresh air in a world full of pretty empty things!
Praise God for this and God bless you.
I actually thought this sounds like Rivers and Robots! Then saw your info below. Thanks Jonathan!
Totally agree with you Jonathan, thank you to take us back to the Rivers & Robots vibes, your music is a blessing in many ways, but this flashback to R&R feels very very good, and I hope that for you was the same 🙌🏽

Hey Jonathan,What’s that one song where you sing “I sing,I sing,I sing,because you sing over me,cause you sing over me”?
Hi, this song is: Love that cares me, by Rivers and Robots.
