“Sometimes we need to remind ourselves of the things that are most true,” says Morgan. “The wonder and the power of the Gospel. The saving and transforming work of Jesus. The unshakable truth of the bible. Christ’s desire to draw all people to Himself and His relentless passion for the church He is building. Even the darkest moments in our lives and throughout history, cannot quench the light of the Gospel—I believe this is the greatest season in history for the church.”
Adds Morgan, “Christ and His Gospel is the ‘hope of the ages,’ and because of Jesus, we too have hope. Jesus died—Jesus is risen —Jesus is coming back again. I pray that this truth will always be, for you, a strength to your soul and a fire in your bones.”
Carnes, along with his wife and GRAMMY-nominated and multi-Dove Award Winning worship leader Kari Jobe, co-wrote the RIAA Certified Gold “The Blessing” with Elevation Worship’s Steven Furtick and Chris Brown.
