AOH Music, (vocalist Brianne Nealon, drummer Jimmy Meier, and guitarist/producer Jack Garno) cries out for divine help with their new single “Heal Our World,” releasing Friday, April 21.

The song marks the second track from the New Jersey-based trio’s upcoming debut EP Live At Ocean Way Nashville, set for release in May.

“God created this Earth for us to live and live abundantly, sharing in His overflowing love, grace and goodness,” says the band. “We are all called to honor God the Father and all the beauty He has created. ‘Heal Our World’ is a cry out to Jesus to come into our hearts and minds to restore our brokenness. Out of His love for us, Jesus came to bring salvation and healing to our world.”

AOH Music’s debut single “Abba Father” released on March 31, and earned immediate adds on multiple playlists including Spotify’s New Music Friday Christian and Amazon Music’s Worship Now.

The band will set out on tour in the fall, playing faith-based concerts and events across the nation. In addition to AOH Music, Nealon, Meier and Garno lead worship nights and perform at faith-based concerts and retreats through the Array of Hope Ministry, where they met four years ago.

Bridges With Patsy Clairmont And Andrew Greer Spotlights Fascinating Voices Of Ministry

Resonating with listeners of all ages since its debut in 2020, Bridges with Patsy Clairmont and Andrew Greer…Spiritual Connections Through Generational Conversations returns for a highly anticipated third season. Presented by Love Justice International.

Co-hosted and co-produced by bestselling author and speaker Patsy Clairmont and Dove Award-nominated singer/songwriter and author Andrew Greer, the show turns its latest focus to a range of fascinating faith leaders, authors, and artists discussing the call of ministry on their lives, whether as a formal vocation or relational gifting.

Patsy Clairmont and Andrew Greer

Kicking off this week with former American Idol finalist and GRAMMY-nominated artist Danny Gokey and his wife Leyicet, upcoming Bridges guests are slated to include GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter Sandi Patty; author, speaker, and life coach Jan Silvious; GRAMMY-nominated singer/songwriter Tim Menzies; pastor and author Scott Sauls; critically-acclaimed Citizens frontman Zach Bolen; worship leader and genre-spanning vocalist Charles Billingsley; and popular speaker and entrepreneur Harris III, among others.

“Ministry is born out of stories lived, so I think sharing our stories can be a pipeline for the Holy Spirit to communicate the greatest story of all—redemption,” Greer says of the show’s thematic spotlight. “Living in our world isn’t easy with so many voices, so many opinions, and so few listeners.

We hope these conversations can encourage folks, including ourselves, to be slower to speak and quicker to listen. We have much to learn from each other if we will just open our hearts and ears.”

“I’m thrilled that our third season of Bridges is filled with so many winsome guests because variety truly is the spice of life,” shares Clairmont. “I love having friendships with people of all ages, and I continue to learn so much from both the fresh views of youth and the seasoned perspectives of my own generation.”

Kelly Garner Declares “It’s Not Over”

It’s a new season and a new day for talented Christian singer/songwriter Kelly Garner, as she prepares to release her highly anticipated new project this coming Friday, April 14, 2023.

The release, titled It’s Not Over, marks Garner’s return to music ministry after spending 16 years in education.

Garner’s music career began 28 years ago when she recorded her first album with Diadem Records. However, her passion for education led her to take a hiatus from being a recording artist for 16 years. During this time, Garner continued to write, songs recorded by other artists, including the hit song “I Stand Redeemed” by Legacy Five.

She founded a publishing company in 2003 and continued to write, but the desire to record her own music once again became overwhelming.

A few years ago, Garner felt this was the time to return to music ministry. She began to write and prepare – she knew God was calling her back into her first love.

itsnotover

“I finally realized it was time for me to record again, I felt it in my spirit,” Garner said. “I couldn’t be happier with the songs on this record. They speak to me personally, and I hope they speak to others, wherever they are in life.”

Produced by Kris Crunk and Garner, It’s Not Over is a powerful and inspiring collection of songs that showcase Garner’s signature voice and heartfelt songwriting, along with a few of her favorites from other artists.

Highlights of the recording include the exciting “Good Ole Gospel Sing,” the encouraging title track “It’s Not Over,” the pensive “The Risen Lamb,” and a very special moment closes the recording, as Joseph Habedank joins Garner for the song, “Forgive Me.”

The project features 14 tracks, backed by full strings, powerful background vocals, and even a 77-voice choir, with a diverse set of styles.

It’s been a long time since Garner released new music and music lovers are anticipating the release of It’s Not Over.
