Price: $9.49
Featuring such standout tracks as “King of Glory” and “Stand Forever”, Your Great Name vows to touch the hearts and lives of all who hear it. The album embodies the common thread of Dulaney’s music: invite listeners to worship, ignite bold confessions of their faith, and incorporate musical elements that reflect an array of cultures.
“I want everyone to be drawn to my music, no matter what their background is,” says Dulaney. “My hope is that I will be successful at pointing people to Jesus. That is my goal and that is what I want my legacy to be.”

“Todd’s personality is infectious and that same guy is the one who ushers you to the presence of God. Without the heart, the songs are just words on paper. Todd’s heart and enthusiasm for Jesus shines through with each song and he makes you want to grab your piece of what he’s holding on to”, says Gina Miller, VP and General Manager, eOne Nashville
Todd Dulaney has delivered some of the biggest worship anthems of the past three years with his remake of the Planet Shakers’ CCM hit “The Anthem”, and “Victory Belongs to Jesus”, which Dulaney penned. Dulaney’s sophomore album The Anthem, and its debut single of the same name both went to #1 on the Billboard charts, resulting in Dulaney being named Billboard‘s New Gospel Artist of the Year in 2016.

LYRICS: “You Waited” by Travis Greene
You came out of your way
You sat down to speak to me
What amazing grace
That you’ve shown
So patiently
And you
Waited
For me
Just for me
Oh…
You called out my name
Knew my past, covered my shame
This amazing grace
You’ve shown
So patiently
You’ve shown
So patiently
And you
You waited
For me
Just for me
Oh…
You
You waited
For me
Just for me
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
Whete would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
But you waited, waited
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
You waited, waited
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
Where would I be
If you left me there
What amazing grace
You’ve shown
So patiently
You’ve shown
So patiently
And you, you waited
For me

You, you waited
For me

Jekalyn Carr Prepares For June 22nd Live Recording | @JekalynCarr

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: JEKALYN CARR PREPARES FOR JUNE 22nd LIVE RECORDING

Jekalyn Carr Prepares For June 22nd Live Recording | @JekalynCarr

Grammy Award-Nominee, Billboard Music Award-Nominee, and Stellar Award-Winner, Jekalyn Carr, is in the throes of preparing for her second live recording, which will take place on June 22nd. The recording will take place at Brown Baptist Church in Southaven, MS, which is just a stone’s throw away from her native hometown of Memphis, TN.
ONE NATION UNDER GOD is a call for all of God’s people to unite as just that, removing the limitations of race, religion, denomination, organization, locale, gender, or class. With this new release, Carr addresses how God desires to see His people, and how we should see ourselves – as one united body of believers. God’s love for us all is consistent. The same love, grace, and mercy that He extends to one, He extends to all. From America to Africa, to Russia, to Asia, and all around the world – God’s love is able to reach all and cover all.


ONE NATION UNDER GOD will be Carr’s second live recording, and comes on the heels of its sole predecessor, the popular and widely celebrated The Life Project, which has been considered by many as Carr’s coming-of-age release. The live setting set the perfect stage upon which Carr could seamlessly blend her music and her inimitable, dynamic ministry. The powerful scenario resulted in The Life Project becoming her first #1 album, and producing her first #1 single (“You’re Greater”), garnering multiple nominations for The Stellar Awards, and her first nominations for both the Grammy Awards and the Billboard Music Awards.
ONE NATION UNDER GOD will, once again, place Carr in a live setting, surrounded by worshippers and people after God’s own heart, as she presents her new music and creates an atmosphere of unity and solidarity among the people of God.
ONE NATION UNDER GOD is more than a recording – it is a movement; a call to action.
All roads lead to Brown Baptist Church in Southaven, MS on June 22nd as Carr presents ONE NATION UNDER GOD. Doors open at 5:30 and attendees are encouraged to arrive early to insure their place in this room which is guaranteed to release a sound and a charge that will shift the mindsets of separation and designation, and restore an atmosphere of unity and inclusion.

Donnie McClurkin Tells Christians to Stop Protesting Donald

Donnie McClurkin Tells Christians to Stop Protesting Donald
   

Pastor Donnie McClurkin believes Christians should leave protesting President Donald Trump to the world and shift their focus.

"We need to know what our vote really means and how to utilize it. But I don't want us to get caught up in this protest," the gospel singer and pastor of Perfecting Faith Church in Freeport, New York, said on syndicated radio show Get Up! Mornings With Erica Campbell. "The protests do nothing but rile [people] up. It causes people's anger to rise up and it gives us a false sense of involvement."

For McClurkin, "the true sense of involvement is at the voting booth."

However, Campbell disagreed with the sentiments that protesting is meaningless. The syndicated radio host who got her start singing in Mary Mary insisted protesting captures the attention of the necessary people.

"It stops their progress. It makes the police have to respond and they have to spend money, they have to clear the streets and they have to organize," she said. "So it makes them pay a little more attention..."

However, McClurkin insisted that the only money being spent in those situations were taxpayer dollars. While the pastor and "We Fall Down" singer insisted that he didn't vote for Trump because of his "lack of policy, misogynistic ideals, [and] racism," he called for Christians to deal with Trump's presidency with prayer instead of protest.

"Now is our time to pray for him. This is the job of the church," he said. "Let the world protest but the job of the church now is to go into prayer and pray that, number one, he succeeds, because if he fails, we have to deal with the consequences as a nation," he said before quoting 2 Chronicles 7:14. "America is in a place that it has never been before and the Christian has got to be who God has called us to be."

While Campbell didn't totally agree with her friend McClurkin, her sister, fellow gospel singer Tina Campbell, sang a different tune by writing an open letter to Trump that she shared on social media last week.

Citing Ephesians 3:20, Campbell revealed why she is choosing to publicly show compassion for the president even though she disagrees with him.

"I believe that understanding and compassion is absolutely necessary for the progress of all people. So, although I don't always understand or agree with Mr. Donald Trump's politics, perspective, and approach, I believe that the same God that created all of us has deposited greatness inside of him that goes far beyond what many of us have seen and what many of us could imagine," she wrote on social media. "I believe that God can do exceeding abundantly above all that we can ask or think, according to the power that works in us. I believe that the power that works in us is our ability to love, and unify, and humble ourselves, and forgive, and hope, and pray, and educate ourselves, and apply wisdom and hard work to knowledge."

Kari Jobe Talks of Healing Birthed From New Album After Family Tragedy

Kari Jobe Talks of Healing Birthed From New Album After Family Tragedy

   

Grammy-nominated worship leader Kari Jobe shared with The Christian Post the intimate details surrounding the tragedy and healing that led to the release of her new album, The Garden.

Two years before Jobe's new album release, she found herself in a season of celebration. She had just gotten married to her husband, Cody Carnes, and shortly after got pregnant and moved to Nashville. Both she and her sister were pregnant at the same time and she said everything was really "fun" and exciting, until tragedy struck.

Toward the end of her pregnancy, Jobe's sister had to give birth to what Jobe calls a "sleeping angel." Her sister's baby did not survive and it devastated the family.

"She was already back with Jesus before we got to meet her," Jobe told The Christian Post. "Just navigating those emotions in that difficult season, while being pregnant and also still having life growing inside of me was uncharted waters. So it took me a season to get the air back in my lungs."

Jobe remembered being so overwhelmed with sorrow and filled with disappointment and questions.

Jobe and her family, being people of faith, were praying that the outcome would be different but when their prayers weren't answered the singer said it forced her to take a minute and ask God what His plan was in all of it.

"You have to turn your why into something. You can't just sit in those questions because it just causes more questions," Jobe explained. "I just began to pour my heart out in song. Praying that God would meet us in that place of pain and speak to us."

The 35-year-old said she had to fight a lot of fear before the birth of her son because the cause of her sister's loss was not determined. She took extra precaution and put herself on bed rest. She stopped flying, changed her diet, and quit working out.

"I think I went to the ER about three or four times out of fear. I just wanted to hear his heartbeat," Jobe explained.

While writing and creating The Garden, Jobe went on to give birth to a healthy baby boy named Canyon.

"Canyon has brought a lot of joy and a lot of healing to our family through it all," she said. "It's just one of those things that's uncharted but God walked us through it."

She turned every step of her journey into songs on The Garden and the music is built to reach the heart of God and the souls of people who are willing to surrender their pain to Him, as Jobe did.

Although the pain was intense, Jobe said God was with them every step of the way.

"At the same time there was such a sense of God's presence, of His goodness surrounding us. Looking back, I sensed His presence so strong and my sister was just so gorgeous walking through it. She would call me and just tell me, 'I can't wait to meet your baby, I'm so excited,'" Jobe shared.

As Jobe turned to prayer and her album to cry out to God, she offered advice to the many people in her generation that are hurting over the current condition of the world.

"Honestly, if I was sitting in a room with millennials, people of my same age and younger, I would just say, 'OK, stop whining and stop being fearful and get on your face and pray. We have to pray. We have to take it to prayer before we take it to social media," she advised.

"We're so surrounded with sharing our feelings and making sure our opinions are put out there because we know people are listening and watching so we feel like there's a responsibility to say something, but I'm trying to be careful to not say something before I've prayed it."

She admitted that like others she can also find herself being fearful and not praying at all if she stays on social media and watches the news all day.

But then she asks herself, "'What's the perspective of God?' It comes back to some of the stuff that I just wrote for this album. God, you knew this was gonna happen before it happened, nothing surprises Him."

She said instead of stressing out she just decides to walk in peace and pray Scripture over her life.

The Texas Native echoes the posture she hopes for people to be in with hit single "Heal Our Land." Jobe referenced 2 Chronicles 7:14, which instructs people to humble themselves and pray.

"It's pretty strong language from God. Pray, but not just pray - Seek Him as well! That means taking time to really hear the heart of God," the songstress stated. "I think it would really change what people are saying. I think people would be talking a little bit more out of faith than fear."

Jobe said her song "Speak to Me" is her favorite on the album.

"That's one my favorites, and I think I love it because sometimes we just need to sit and wait," she explained. "Because of social media and the way that our culture is now we're so quick to share everything. Sometimes I think we just need to create space again to wait on God and not be in a hurry."

She challenged people to examine whether or not they make space for God.

Now married and a mother, Jobe said she has to make space for God and her family in the midst of her busy tour schedule.

"I have learned to put my phone down and be fully present, take deep breaths and not be in a hurry," she said of spending time with her son. "I don't want to look back and regret missing anything because I was busy."

The worship leader ended the interview by talking about the importance of praise.

"We all are created to worship and we all worship something even if we're not worshiping God. The fruit of our lives will speak for what we are worshiping," she maintained. "For me personally, worship music is something that helps me pray and say things to God that I haven't been saying. Or it helps me connect to Him."

Jobe doesn't believe that worship should be put in a box and said sometimes she finds herself worshiping to songs that aren't what standard "worship music" might sound like.

"There's some Lecrae songs that I'm like, 'That's incredible. I wouldn't have thought to say that in that way.' But if it catches something that you've been needing to say to God, I think that's worship," she concluded.

Her album, The Garden, is now available and Jobe will be touring for the record on "The Garden Tour." She will also be offering worship workshops in certain cities specifically for people who feel called to lead in worship.
