Indie Showcase: Echo by Gateway Youth Tuesday, December 13, 2016 Gateway Youth is a collective of songwriters and creatives from Gateway Church Australia in Seaford, Victoria, whose desire is that their songs would contain a raw and real sound that would reach into culture and give voice to the people of their church community and broader kingdom. We are excited to feature the team's exciting new release, Echo as this week's Indie Showcase. Drawing inspiration from the today's popular electronic sounds, Echo's three tracks, "Hurricane," "Closer," and "Echo" have a way of speaking straight to the heart of this generation while mimicking the adventure and fun of following Christ. Gateway Youth songwriter and worship leader Bethany Bolmers shares, “In the writing process we had this strong sense that each line and each melody was echoing the Father’s heart for this generation – to come just as we are. He so wants his children to encounter Him in a fresh and authentic way. And to know that we are being pursued by the love of God who transforms us for real and for good.” Pick up your own copy of Echo today, now available on iTunes.

Two New Singles from Kari Jobe - "The Cause of Christ" and "Heal Our Land" Friday, December 9, 2016 Dove award winning worship artist Kari Jobe has announced that she will be releasing a new album in 2017, following up on her critically acclaimed 2014 release, Majestic. We are excited to bring you the MultiTracks from the album's two pre-released singles, "The Cause of Christ" and "Heal Our Land." "The Cause of Christ" is an incredible new song that captures a desire that Jesus would be our greatest passion and that our lives would bring Him glory as we surrender to His will and make His name known to all the world. Kari shares, "This song was birthed because the cause of Jesus Christ is the greatest cause we could ever have and which we could ever hear. Nothing else compares to Him and nothing should take His place in our lives." Kari's second new single, "Heal Our Land" was drawn from 2 Chronicles 7:14 and it cries out to God for His restoration and healing, proclaiming His mercy and acknowledging just how much we need Him. "I'm so thankful that no matter what happens on this earth, Jesus is our eternity," she says. "One day, we'll be joined with our Savior who died for our sins and our brokenness. And when I take a moment to think of His heart and how He sees things — how He desires to return for us and remove all pain and sickness in our lives — it fills my heart with hope. I pray that you will dwell on that truth as well in the days to come." Download your own copies of "The Cause of Christ" and "Heal Our Land," both now available on iTunes.
