Mitch Wong releases his debut album, ‘a beautiful ending, a blessed beginning’. The first full-length project from the Nashville-based Australian worship leader takes listeners on a journey from burial to bloom.
The concept revolves around the theme of surrender – allowing our old nature to die – and the beauty of resurrection, reminding us that death isn’t the end but the Divine doorway into fulness of life and joy. From an early age, Wong felt a passionate calling to write songs.
But it’s in recent years that he wholeheartedly embraced this intrinsic desire to spread his music and let his voice be heard. “I can vividly remember a night two years ago when I couldn’t fall asleep because I felt God downloading all these beautiful song ideas into my head. I was wide awake and inspired like I had never experienced before. My poor wife had to suffer me recording muffled voice memos in bed until around 6AM when the downloads stopped, and I finally went to sleep,” he describes.
That night changed him forever as the songs, lyrics, and melodies told such a beautiful and consistent story. From this, ‘a beautiful ending, a blessed beginning’ was born. The album opens with ‘Burial’, a song written with Cody Carnes, which celebrates the centrality of surrender and takes inspiration from Jesus’ teaching that to lose one’s life is to find it.
“I felt that it was important and indeed countercultural to begin the album with a death; death to our old ways, our old thinking and our old burdens,” Wong says. By opening his record with profound words from the Apostle Paul – “to die is gain” – Wong makes a powerful and inspiring statement that no resurrection can come without a grave.
From there, ‘a beautiful ending, a blessed beginning’ expands into songs filled with gospel influences, pop soundscapes, and R&B accents as it approaches themes like loss and grief on songs such as ‘Still On The Throne’ and ‘To Be With The Lord’.
The latter towers as the album’s centerpiece, featuring Steffany Gretzinger on a deeply touching and worshipful duet. “To say that I’m deeply honored Steffany would sing this with me is a complete understatement,” Wong says. With great sensitivity, he encourages a faith-filled perspective of Jesus’ reign even through seasons of mourning. “I remember waking up at 2AM with the chorus in my head one night, I knew straight away that I was supposed to send it to my dear friend [as her] dad had recently graduated to Heaven to be with Jesus,” he tells. Though ‘a beautiful ending, a blessed beginning’ tackles weighty themes, Wong harnesses music to change perspectives so that we may see these topics as celebrations instead of burdens.
The trailblazing album then shifts into yet another rich layer, offering songs of rejoicing in the fruit that comes from surrender. “We discover that the Kingdom of God is alive, all around us, blooming within us,” Wong adds, “this album reveals that loss can be redefined as “a beautiful ending” and that the power and the goodness of Christ turns those endings into something new, something greater: “a blessed beginning”.
From its bold opening track to closing with ‘Reputation’, a sonically joyful track leaving us with a taste of godly confidence and bold faith to believe for God to do the impossible, Wong explores some deeply emotional themes with music that compliments and supports the lyrics. “Music can be a beautiful way of softening the heart and preparing us to receive hope. Although some of the songs cover life’s challenges, the somber tones and the midnight hours, I pray that the music will be like a steady hand for the listener, a faithful guide, a shoulder to lean on as we walk through the more difficult chapters of life,” the artist concludes. With ‘a beautiful ending, a blessed beginning’, Mitch Wong helps the Church dream of the brighter promised future we have in Christ, and sets out to remind us of the beauty and hope that exists in each season of life because of Him.
A Beautiful Ending, A Blessed Beginning – Mitch Wong
The 11-song live album was recorded live at The Studio in Hereford, UK, and was produced by George Owen Downes, Dave Thomas, Sam Taylor, and Luke Collins and co-written by George Owen Downes and Dave Thomas.
“In 2006 something unique began to happen amongst the young men of our church. Not satisfied with the status quo of their lives or what it looked like to be a man of God they began to gather. It was raw, uncompromised honesty and ministry. What God did among them changed our church and at the heart of it was the sound of worship.
Not polished great songs or high production events just men giving their all. An often out-of-tune, off-beat but beautiful sound emerged. The passion became a fire that carried over nations as our church planted across the world. The vision of this album was to capture that worship with songs specifically written for men in the context of our struggles and battles in life.
The mix was purposely not tidied, with the crowd left as abnormally loud as they were on the night. Spontaneous choruses and ministry captured in the ‘moments’ of this record encapsulate every prayer as a moment of worship we believe will change lives around the world.
From declarations of trust in ‘You provide’, the journey of sonship in ‘Prodigal’ to the warcry of …‘Chariots’ this is a unique project we can’t wait to share with the world.“ – Dave Thomas, Freedom Church
CAIN’s anticipated project Honest Offering, their six-song live worship EP, drops today (Feb 24) via Sony Music/Provident Entertainment.
Honest Offering features the writing of award-winning songwriters and artists including Chris Tomlin, Jason Ingram, Ethan Hulse, Micah Kuiper, Nick Schwarz, Jonathan Smith, and Mitch Wong.
Wong also shares his vocals on “Shine On Us” while David Leonard appears on “Blessed Assurance.” Touted as their most personal collection of songs yet, the album was produced by Jonathan Smith, Brad King, and David Leonard and was recorded live at Nashville’s legendary Ocean Way Studio.
Honest Offering is also a project CAIN has been wanting to make since their childhood, especially as teens when the Cain family would host high school Bible studies. “We’d pack so many in our family room and just sing to Jesus,” Madison Cain Johnson shares.
Now singing as their careers, the siblings knew it was time to record some of their favorite worship songs along with sharing a few new ones. “Our hearts need this,” Madison says. “It’s something that has been on our hearts to do and I can’t believe we actually got to do it!” Taylor Cain Matz adds, “Everybody’s heart for this is just right. We’re ready!” Logan Cain includes, “This feels different to me than anything we’ve done before. It’s so personal.”
We hope that this is a time that people can get lost in the songs and really connect with God,” Madison concludes. “That is more than we can hope for, more than people just liking the songs or enjoying themselves. We really hope that people get to encounter the living God.”
The members of CAIN are also ready to embark on their first-ever headlining tour this spring. Joined by Katy Nichole and David Leonard, the “Live And In Color Tour” will kick off in March. Click HERE for more information to find a city, and the assigned tour color, near you!
One of the most successful breakout artists of 2022, Nichole’s music is connecting with a worldwide audience. Her prayer-song, “In Jesus Name (God of Possible),” became the biggest single this decade on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart, holding 20-weeks at No. 1 followed by three more weeks on top with her second single, “God Is In This Story.” Along with being No. 1 on this chart for 44 percent of 2022, she also topped six Billboard Year in Music, the No. 1s issue radio and sales categories. She further garnered nominations for an American Music Award and a Dove Award (co-hosting and performing on the GMA Dove Awards Pre-Telecast) plus received a K-LOVE Fan Award and made her Grand Ole Opry debut.
Launching into 2023 with this momentum, Nichole wrote the title track of Jesus Changed My Life with GRAMMY Award-winning Jonathan Smith and Dove Award-winning Benji Cowart.
“Jesus is constantly refining my heart,” shares Nichole. “Like a lot of the cries that are in the Psalms, when I find myself in a place of struggle, I turn back to Him. If Jesus could change my life then, He can change my life now.”
Taking the new music on tour, Nichole begins a 30-city tour with Cain March 2, which follows her K-LOVE Christmas Tour 2022 and successful tours with Jeremy Camp, Matthew West and more.
Three-time GMA Dove Award-winning worship leader, singer-songwriter, author and podcaster Christy Nockels releases her first full-length studio album in over five years, This Is The Hour, today (Feb. 24) on Keeper’s Branch Records with global distribution via The Fuel Music.
Available now at digital and streaming outlets worldwide via https://christynockels.lnk.to/thisisthehourPR, the recording features all the acclaimed music on the recently released Valor EP plus 10 more intimate worship tracks all meant to lead listeners deeper into the heart of God.
As a worship leader for over 25 years, Christy’s heart is to simply lead others to connect and communicate with the living God. Her new album carries a storyline that God has already used in a deep and personal way in her and her producer-husband Nathan’s lives. They have experienced these songs spiritually and even emotionally, and they have already been a healing balm to their own hearts.
“We’re living in an hour where you and I are having to pioneer through some of the most challenging cultural and spiritual landscapes we’ve ever encountered,” says Christy. “Yes, there are those who have gone before us, but this moment is new to us and it matters what we do with it.My prayer is that these songs foster a deep reconnection of our hearts to God in this hour in a way that helps us cultivate His presence in our daily lives in a real and fresh way.”
Produced by Nathan Nockels (Passion, Matt Redman, Laura Story), the themes and prayers that have bubbled up in these songs encompass: a returning home to the Father’s heart—including prodigals running home—salvation, renewal, resilience of the human heart and revival.
Following the opening, title track, which features an extended instrumental section by Nathan that reprises later in the album, is the song “As For Me (Psalm 2).” “This song is named after and inspired by Psalm 2, which opens with talk of the nations raging in anger and people plotting in vain against the Lord and all that He has set in place. These words feel oddly familiar in this volatile hour we’re living in!” exclaims Christy. “But I love how it flows right into God’s response: He laughs in the face of all the bickering and plotting and says, ‘As for me, I’ve set my King on Zion!’
“This is a beautiful reminder that God isn’t anxious or fretful about the hour we are living in or the days ahead,” continues Christy. “Even when evil rises to threaten us, we can sit in the same confidence that God sits in today. He already made provisions for us and has a plan and that Provision and Plan is a Person. Jesus. The bridge of this song opens up in celebration of Jesus, this King that God has set in place for the world. And just like the end of Psalm 2, there’s an invitation, ‘Blessed is the one who takes refuge in Your name, they belong to You Jesus!’”
