Read the origin story for the song Soft Rain

A story about God’s love mending a shattered life with his intimate and immediate presence.

“At the end of the song Soft Rain, with the softness of the piano, I closed my eyes. I envisioned myself with outstretched arms, turning slowly with my face looking up to heaven and a soft rain from heaven falling on me. Powerful, healing song.”

“It’s amazing how certain songs can bring comfort and a sense of peace during a difficult season.  Soft Rain is such a song. Let the melody wash over you, soak in the lyric, and receive the grace this song offers.”

Scott Krippayne, CCM recording artist, writer of 16 #1 songs & American Idol Song contest winner

“The first time I heard Soft Rain, I immediately thought of more than a dozen people who needed this healing message sung so tenderly by author and vocalist Becky Nordquist. Everyone needs Soft Rain for themselves and to share with the broken.”

Shelly Beach, Author, Speaker, Consultant, Christy, Selah, Reader’s Favorite, and Golden Scroll Awards Winner

“Soft Rain washed over me as I listened and took me to a place of peace and serenity. Very powerful and moving.  It connected me to the truth of God’s love and compassion.”

Rick Altizer, Director, Show Me the Father

“If you’ve ever been betrayed, your heart will immediately connect with the desperateness of the pain experienced in the words of Ali Dent. As I heard her lyrics enwrapped by Steve Siler’s musical arrangement, I moved further through my own healing journey and knew it would bless others.

I felt a renewed hope with the beautiful imagery of soft drops of rain from heaven as His healing tears.”

Judi Reid, Author of Rise up! Reclaim Your Value

“The chorus gets stuck in my head, a constant reminder that God’s presence is all around us.”

“Soft Rain isn’t the kind of recording you play for background music while doing house or office work. It is thoughtful, deep, beautifully written, and recorded as it plumbs the depths of our shared universal loss while pointing to our eternal hope in Christ. Becky, Steve Siler, David Baroni, Tony Wood, and Ali Dent have captured an intimate healing and worshipful experience for those who are grieving, which is all of us on some level. A worthy freshman release from a talented singer who has a lot more than a voice to share with the world!”

John Chisum, president of Nashville Christian Songwriters

“The lyrics of Soft Rain CD are solid and filled with emotion, which Becky delivers powerfully. Goosebumps.  And I loved the gospel-tinged arrangement and production.”

 Jeff Crossan, #1 hit country songwriter

“Soft Rain put words to my ache.”

“I loved these songs. Soft Rain is a very therapeutic album!”

Hedi Austel, Author of Discovering God’s Grace in Depression

“Ali and Steve have given us a powerful musical message of how to rebuild a season of mistrust into living a life with God’s joy, freedom, and hope. A true praise song.”

Judi Reid, Author of Rise Up! 71 Thoughts of Hope & Inspiration for Women of Value, Speaker, & Coach
