The song was first heard on her highly acclaimed studio release, Canyon (2021). “Stronger (Radio Edit)” is available everywhere and was featured in Spotify’s Top Christian & Gospel playlist. Click below to watch the heartwarming video with mother and daughter conquering fear. Premiering last week on SiriusXM, the video was directed by Noah Glenn and filmed in the beautiful Shelby Farms Park in Memphis, TN.

“I wrote this song as an anthem for the days where I felt fear was paralyzing me,” shares Ellie Holcomb. “I wanted to have a song that would lift my eyes from the mountain in front of me to the God who moves mountains. I also wrote this song for my daughter to face her fears and it has been so beautiful to see her grow in faith and bravery. My hope is that this song helps you move forward from whatever fears you are facing knowing confidently that God is bigger than them!”

“My book and album were inspired by the song ‘Joy to the World,’ and it’s an invitation to sing about the hope we have because God put skin on and moved into the neighborhood,” shares Ellie Holcomb. “I hope these songs will invoke dancing in the kitchen while you bake Christmas cookies and storytelling of the very best kind. I hope it will help kids ponder what joy sounds like and the reason we can have joy no matter what we’re facing.”

The Christmas book explores the question of what joy sounds like as the reader travels through beautiful Christmastime scenes in the board book, which is illustrated by Laura Ramos. Likewise Sing: Christmas Songs is an invitation to sing about the hope of the season and features classic and original Christmas songs. Holcomb’s sweet and lovely celebration of Christmas encourages each reader and listener, young and old, to lift up their voice and repeat the sounding joy!

Holcomb continues, “Joy sounds like the voices of my friends and family in my home while I’m preparing a meal. It sounds like my kids singing happily in their room together or like carols and bells and laughter and water running. It sounds like It’s A Wonderful Life playing in the background and Charlie Brown Christmas and Linus reading the most wonderful of stories that came true in real life… the magic of knowing we are never alone, and of hearing that message ring true over and over again in all the songs we sing at Christmas. We have a reason to sing, a reason to hope. Love gets the final word. Glad tidings of GREAT JOY!”

“This book is an invitation into the magic, joy, and hope of Christmas,” shares Ellie Holcomb. “It invites all of us, from one to 92, to be kids again, to gather with the ones we love, and to lift up our voices to sing the songs of hope we have because of the Christmas story. I hope amidst the bustle and busyness and fun of the Christmas season, this book creates a moment for families, to ponder the beauty and hope of Christmas that always gives us a reason to sing.”

In addition to her book, Holcomb will also release an accompanying EP, Sing: Christmas Songs, featuring classic and original Christmas songs. Sing: Christmas Songs is inspired by the song “Joy to the World,” and it’s an invitation to sing about the hope we have because God put skin on and moved into the neighborhood.

“We were singing ‘Joy to the World’ last Christmas, and got to the line, Repeat, repeat the sounding joy,” Holcomb recalls. “It got me thinking, what does joy sound like, and what does it mean for us to repeat it? I had so much fun thinking about all the sounds I associate with joy, and remembered my most favorite story of all in the process, the Christmas story that whispers and sings over and over again that we are not alone, that Love always comes to find us, and that hope is alive in the person of Jesus. This is a story and a light that we get to sing and share, we get to go tell it on the mountains.” 

Sounding Joy is Holcomb’s third children’s board book exploring questions that spark children’s curiosity. Her two best-selling children’s books through B&H Publishing Group (Don’t Forget to Remember, 2020 and Who Sang the First Song, 2018) spent several months on the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) juvenile bestseller list and was a finalist for the Christian Book of the Year in the children’s category (for Who Sang the First Song). Last year, she released her first devotional book, Fighting Words – 100 Days of Speaking Truth into the Darkness, which also spent several months on the ECPA bestseller list for all Christian books.

FAITHFUL’s ‘A Woman’ is performed by Ellie Holcomb and Amy Grant, telling the story of Jesus’ revolutionary empowerment of the first women who told the world of his resurrection. The single was recorded live at Ocean Way Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, capturing the warm, powerful vocals and authentic interpretation inhabiting FAITHFUL’s musicianship. Written by Ann Voskamp, Ellie Holcomb, and Sarah Macintosh, ‘A Woman’ poetically tells the story of a woman who didn’t quit by fear of irrelevance and crippling grief but followed the way of Jesus in love and obedience to Him. Her name was Mary Magdalene, the first witness of the Lord’s resurrection.

‘A Woman’ is built around Jesus’ apparition at the empty tomb as he calls Mary’s name and shatters her paradigm of sorrow. With this profound song, which was featured on Good Morning America, FAITHFUL revive our hope that we too can say, “once my name crossed his lips, how can I keep silent…” Because the tomb is empty, our lives aren’t. It’s only because the stone is rolled back that our surest hope comes back. From its emotionally charged verses and catchy chorus to the epic bridge, ‘A Woman’ is an ode of defiant joy and validation to be Christ’s voices in this world!

Coming to life in the winter before the pandemic, a group of well-known and respected authors and songwriters gathered as a community to write and share songs. Their work came to be known as FAITHFUL: songs and stories of God’s kindness to women throughout history and here with us today. Their debut album ‘FAITHFUL: Go and Speak’ shares songs from many of today’s renowned artists, songwriters, and authors; each song on this special thematic album featuring a woman telling the story of God’s faithfulness throughout Scripture to the present day. This collaboration between artists and authors has led to a collection of poetry and resonance through song. Artists involved on the album are Amy Grant, Ellie Holcomb, Ann Voskamp, Sarah Macintosh, Sandra McCracken, Ginny Owens, Leslie Jordan, Christy Nockels, Rachael Lampa, Kelly Minter, Savannah Locke, Sarah Kroger, Christa Wells, Tamar Chipp, Jess Ray, Janice Gaines, Trilla Newbell, and Taylor Leonhardt.
