Produced by Ed Cash (Chris Tomlin, Chris August), who also produced her breakout self-titled debut, and acclaimed producer Matt Bronleewe (Natalie Imbruglia, Josh Wilson), Where I Find You is an engaging project that stretches Jobe both sonically and thematically. In addition to emphasizing the beauty found in God's presence, Where I Find You is a clarion call for listeners to actually experience it to the fullest, even in the midst of personal storms.

"I think there are times as believers when we feel entitled and that life shouldn't be hard. We live in this culture of convenience that says we can do everything ourselves and find all the answers on Google," Kari says. "But if we can learn to fall more in love with the Lord and trust Him in the middle of every storm, we build our endurance to keep running the race."

The message is clearly hitting home with listeners as Jobe's first-ever radio hit, "We Are," has spent multiple weeks as Billboard's Most Added Christian single and is not only a Top 15 and climbing single on the National Audience chart, but also quickly soared to top of the iTunes Christian and Gospel chart.

"'We Are' is a song of commission for us as believers," says Kari, "to be reminded of what we've been called to, and that is to impact people's lives in everything we do."

Taking the new music and message of Where I Find You to audiences coast-to-coast, Jobe is featured on Christian music's biggest tour, Winter Jam, which begins Jan. 6 and travels to over 45 cities before wrapping up in April. One of the most respected female worship leaders in the country, Jobe also leads worship at Gateway Church, which she has done for the last nine-years. She further leads worship at conferences across the country and around the world.

Releasing her self-titled debut album in February 2009, the album went on to sell well over 250,000 copies and led to a New Artist of The Year Dove Award nomination. Taking home two Doves from the ceremony, Jobe later joined Rick Warren (Saddleback Church) to lead worship for more than 45,000 at Angel Stadium (Anaheim, CA). Having studied at Oral Roberts University, Christ For The Nations and Dallas Baptist University, where she finished her psychology and Pastoral Ministries degree, Jobe also partners with the A21 Campaign, an organization dedicated to abolishing human trafficking.

"Whether I'm participating in an effort like the A21 Campaign or leading worship, it's all about making a difference," Kari says. "It's all about seeing God's name lifted high, to encourage the hurt and the broken and to remind everyone to draw close to Him because He really, truly does care about each and every one of His children."
