[Album] Fight Like Heaven – Open Heaven

Ohio worship band, Open Heaven releases their new live album, Fight Like Heaven. Featuring eleven original worship songs. It is a follow up to their album “Triumph” by the same producer, Scotty Mearig. The song is available today on all digital retail and streaming service providers via DREAM Worship.

Recorded live at Faith Life Church near Columbus, Ohio, this album is a soundtrack to a deeper relationship with God. Based in adult contemporary, pop, and soft rock sounds, the album starts with the powerful title track “Fight Like Heaven.” Other highlights include the sweeping anthem of dedication “None Like You,” and the more intimate, beautiful tune “I Love You Jesus.” There are even a few bonus remixes of previous Open Heaven hits, including “How Awesome You Are” and “Light Up the World.”

Led by worship leader and singer-songwriter Amy Freudiger, Open Heaven is a contemporary collective of worshippers who want to send out a call to the body of Christ to stand up and proclaim Jesus as King, holding nothing back. Amy says, “We believe this is not a time to stay silent or hide our faith, it is a time to make Jesus the priority. We pray that as you hear this worship album, you would fall deeper in love with Jesus and rise up as a powerful voice for Him in this hour.”

The title track and album title is based on the best-selling book by the same title, written by Pastor Drenda Keesee of Faith Life Church.

Multi-Artist ‘A New Heaven And A New Earth’ Drops Featuring Well-Known Christian Artists

Creation is a living, breathing tableau; a work of art telling the story of its Creator. As people cultivate the world, the beauty of creation is often taken for granted, which is one reason why a group of award-winning Christian artists have joined forces for a historic music project, A New Heaven and a New Earth. The recording is a unique collection of original songs that is available now at digital and streaming outlets everywhere from The Fuel Music. More than a work of art, the album is meant to initiate a conversation.

A New Heaven and a New Earth features songs written and recorded by hip-hop titan Aaron Cole; singer / songwriter Jason Gray; GRAMMY-nominated, Dove Awards-winning Building 429 frontman Jason Roy; chart-topper Micah Tyler; vocalist, producer and actress MŌRIAH; former Newsboys bassist and solo artist Phil Joel; and beloved CCM duo Waterdeep, comprised of husband and wife Don and Lori Chaffer. This elite roster of contributors resulted in thoughtfully written songs steeped in a vibrant array of sounds representing everything from pop, rock and hip-hop to R&B, folk and Americana.

The eight tracks comprising A New Heaven and a New Earth issue a clarion call for Christians to recognize their responsibility in Creation care. The project is meant to unify people as they find common ground in caring for their common home. What’s more, the project has organically evolved into a multigenerational effort with several of the artists’ children integrally involved.

“I really wanted to write a song that echoes how small I feel in this space, and yet how important my role here is,” says Roy, who recorded the lead track “It’s All Yours.” “Thinking about the Earth, the massive Redwood trees, the mountains…I look around and see what an incredible gift has been put into our hands.”

“This is the planet that God’s given us, and we need to be good stewards of it,” suggests Joel, who is featured on “Arms Around the World” and anchor track “Our Common Home.” “Sadly, I don’t think we’ve really done a great job in the last 50 years, but thankfully God always provides ways to see things restored, redeemed and replenished…. This gets me excited. We can be a part of creating a new heaven and a new earth.”

Offering the gentle, acoustic-driven “Into the Unseen,” Waterdeep echoes Joel’s and Roy’s sentiment that creation care is more than simply an act of good will or a responsible choice. “We were trying to articulate how we, as humans, wound up deciding it was not very important to care for our natural surroundings,” the group’s Don Chaffer says, “when that was actually the original commission — to care for the garden and all the creatures in it.”

“One of the few things that unites every person on this planet is that our feet are all planted on the same spinning miracle,” notes MÖRIAH, who contributed “You Mean the World.” “By nurturing nature, we’re caring for each other.”

“If we all just came together, what would that look like?” asks Cole, who put his indelible rhythmic stamp on “Together.” “What does this mean for me to…come alongside the people around me and my community on this Earth?”

“If you look back at the beginning of Genesis, every time God would create — the light, the stars, the moon, the oceans — He would say that it was good,” asserts Tyler, who recorded the project’s “So Will I.” “If God would love this world, put this thing together and call this thing good, I think there’s a challenge for us to do the same.”

“God often meets me in the beauty of creation,” offers Gray, who wrote the album’s “Awestruck” with Brandon Heath and Kyle Williams, both of whom also lend background vocals to the track. “Whether I stand before the ocean, go hiking in the Rockies or enjoy the colors of a sunset, the grandeur of natural beauty somehow makes me feel small and loved at the same time.”

[Album] Night Vision: Psalms of Rest – FAITHFUL

FAITHFUL releases “Night Vision: Psalms of Rest,” the second part of a two-album project which was preceded by the release of “Daybreak: Psalms of Action.” The new album is the fruit of various influential women who are artists, songwriters, and authors coming together around the theme of rest, exploring what the Psalter has to reveal about this idea.

Though rest often conjures imagery of the nighttime and sleep, it also refers to a state of inaction where those who love God can dwell knowing that they will be cherished, protected, heard, guided, at peace, nourished, and safe. Speaking of the album and its title track, Sarah Macintosh shares, “People often [only] attribute light and daytime to God, but these Psalms remind us that there is no space or time that is outside of God.” 

Night Vision: Psalms of Rest – FAITHFUL

“Night Vision” features Ellie Holcomb, Taylor Leonhardt, Jillian Edwards, Savannah Locke, Sara Groves, Tamar Chipp, Sarah Kroger, Sandra McCracken, JJ Heller, Janice Gaines, Jess Ray, Leslie Jordan, Ginny Owens, Sarah Macintosh, Rachael Lampa, Ruth Chou Simons, Trilla Newbell, Ann Voskamp, Patsy Clairmont, Amanda Bible Williams, Lina Abujamra, and Amanda Pittman.

Written, produced, and performed by women who are deep wells of creativity and experience, the sonic essence of “Night Vision” is organic, expansive, and ethereal. From the album opener’s pop ballad feel, to folky Americana tracks such as “He Is Love,” the 11-song project showcases both intimate melodies as well as harmonious gang vocals.

Darlene Zschech Releases ‘Testament (EP 2)’

Earlier this summer, Darlene Zschech announced the release of a special album titled “Testament,” celebrating 30 years since her breakthrough song “Shout to the Lord.” After an introductory EP, she teases more from the awaited full-length record with a second collection, “Testament (EP 2).”

The five songs on this project combine two brand-new tracks (“Spirit of the Living God” and “Yes Again”) with reimagined versions of beloved legacy songs, as well as many features. Zschech is highlighting the vibrance of the Church around the globe by collaborating with artists of various backgrounds and from a different generation, such as Mitch Wong, Michael W. Smith, Dustin Smith, and many more.

The opening track even features The HopeUC Nashville Choir, which emerged from the HopeUC church plant Zschech and her husband started in Australia years ago. In many ways, “Testament” is a full circle album.

With 10 tracks from the major 30-song album out, Zschech comes back to some of the pillars that have kept her anchored throughout her lasting ministry, as she described them as “songs that have deep meaning to my family; that have helped shape me and kept my focus heavenward.”

“Testament (EP 2)” keeps telling the story of the fresh sound oozing out of Zschech’s life, which is fueled by her unwavering love for Jesus and his Church.
