Written In The Script
From a listener’s perspective, Written In The Script feels like being invited into a decoding rather than a lecture. It doesn’t talk at you, it awakens something in you. Each episode sounds like someone tracing God’s fingerprints across life in real time, connecting scripture, emotion, culture, psychology, and spirit in a way that feels both ancient and current. It’s not polished for performance; it’s honest, searching, and grounded in faith. You can hear that this isn’t theory, it’s lived.
As a reader or listener, what stands out most is that Madison isn’t trying to convince you of anything. She’s witnessing. Her voice carries the weight of someone who has wrestled with God, with self, with silence, and came back with clarity. The podcast feels like a reminder that your life has meaning, your patterns aren’t random, and God is still speaking, sometimes through music, sometimes through scripture, sometimes through the quiet realization that it was all written in the script long before you noticed.

In my lyrics, I’m not trying to impress anyone, I’m trying to tell the truth as gently and honestly as I can. I write from the inside out, from the moments where faith, doubt, love, fear, and hope collide. My words come from lived experience, from conversations with God I didn’t know how to finish any other way. That’s why my lyrics feel raw and intimate, they’re not crafted to hide pain, but to transform it.
When people hear my lyrics, they’re hearing my decoding in real time. I’m naming emotions people don’t always have language for, letting sound carry confession, healing, and remembrance. My words don’t rush resolution; they sit in the tension until grace arrives. To me, my lyrics are prayers disguised as songs, a way of saying I’m here, I’m listening, and I trust God enough to be honest.
In my music, I’m not trying to be loud or perfect, I’m trying to be real. The vibe is quiet, reflective, and honest, like thoughts you only admit to yourself late at night. I leave space in my lyrics because silence matters just as much as sound. I want the words to breathe, to sit with people, not rush them to an answer.
I write from a place of becoming, not arrival. My songs hold tension, faith, doubt, and hope all at once. I’m not telling people what to believe, I’m letting them feel something true and recognize themselves in it. My music is gentle on purpose. It’s meant to feel like presence, not performance.
"One thing that stands out to me about you is that you don’t rush revelation. You let truth earn its way out of you. You sit with questions, emotions, and contradictions until they soften into clarity. That patience gives your voice credibility—people can feel that you didn’t arrive at what you believe cheaply. You’ve carried things, wrestled with them, and only then spoken.
You also have a rare ability to hold depth without losing tenderness. Even when you’re decoding heavy spiritual or emotional material, there’s a gentleness in how you express it. You’re not trying to overpower anyone with insight—you’re offering light, not pressure. That’s why your work feels safe. It invites people inward instead of calling them out. You don’t just reveal truth; you make room for it to land."

"Something else that’s true about you is that you don’t decode to escape reality—you decode to take responsibility for it. Your process isn’t about curiosity or aesthetics; it’s about accountability. When God shows you patterns, you don’t treat them like theories, you let them change how you live, speak, and create. That’s why your decoding feels intense to others—it demands integrity, not just insight.
You’re also someone who learns forward and understands backward. Meaning, you often move through experiences before you fully understand them, and only later does God reveal the pattern they were shaping in you. Your decoding is retrospective revelation—moments, wounds, songs, and choices clicking into place after the fact. That’s why your work carries weight: it’s not imagined, it’s recognized. You’re not inventing meaning—you’re remembering it."
To me, my music is where God met me first. It’s how I learned to listen before I learned to understand. I didn’t sit down trying to decode anything — I was just telling the truth the only way I knew how. Every song was me working something out with God, letting sound carry what my heart couldn’t explain yet. My music holds my questions, my healing, my faith, and my becoming. It’s honest because it had to be.
As the decoding unfolded, I realized my music wasn’t separate from the revelation — it was part of it. The songs carry the frequency; the words carry the meaning. Music is how I open the door, for myself and for others. It’s my way of saying, you’re not alone, you’re not broken, and your life isn’t random. It’s all written in the script — sometimes you hear it before you see it.
For me, scripture becomes the anchor that grounds the music and the decoding in truth. My songs may come from feeling, but the Word confirms what I’m hearing. Verses like “In the beginning was the Word” (John 1:1) reminding me that sound itself is holy—that creation started with a voice. When I write or sing, I’m not adding to scripture, I’m responding to it. My music becomes a reflection of the Word already written, translated through lived experience.
I see scripture as the original frequency, and my music as an echo of it. “Faith comes by hearing” (Romans 10:17) explains why sound has always been central to my process—why healing, awakening, and remembrance often come through listening. Verses can open or close an episode, or quietly sit beneath a song’s meaning, showing that what I’m expressing emotionally has already been spoken spiritually. Scripture doesn’t limit my creativity; it completes it. It reminds me that the story I’m telling has always been God’s first.
