ONE WEEK UNTIL THE RELEASE OF THE FAITHFUL PROJECT BOOK, ALBUM AND THE LIVESTREAM EVENT
NEW SINGLE AVAILABLE TODAY: "WE DO NOT LABOR IN VAIN" FEAT. JANICE GAINES, TAYLOR LEONHARDT, CHRISTA WELLS, MISSION HOUSE
NEWS SOURCE: Merge PR April 23, 2021
In just one week, the FAITHFUL Project album, FAITHFUL: Go And Speak, will release on April 30th followed by the FAITHFUL book and Livestream Event on May 1st. Today FAITHFUL releases the next single, "We Do Not Labor In Vain," as part of the ground-breaking project. This week's single features the voices of Janice Gaines, Taylor Leonhardt, Christa Wells and Mission House. It was co-written by Gaines, Leonhardt and author Trillia Newbell.
"We Do Not Labor In Vain" is inspired by the story of Eve; one marked by deception, sin and pain, and yet above all by God’s closeness in women’s suffering. FAITHFUL felt a kindred spirit with her, the Mother of all living cursed by the pain of birth, and wrote ‘We Do Not Labor In Vain’ around the hopeful sorrow of new life. It is a celebration of the beauty of the bond between God and women. The catchy chorus invites all, women and men alike, to join in knowing that whether physical or spiritual, our labor might be painful but it won’t ever be in vain.
MORE ABOUT THE FAITHFUL PROJECT: 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.
The FAITHFUL book is an eclectic collection of written stories, lyrics, photos, and art created and curated by some of today's most distinguished and thoughtful Christian artists and authors. Amanda Bible Williams, Ann Voskamp, Ginny Owens, Kelly Minter, Kelly Needham, Lisa Harper, Raechel Myers, Ruth Chou Simons, Sally Lloyd-Jones, Sarah Macintosh, Savannah Locke, and Trillia Newbell, with an introduction by Amy Grant, gathered to create this keepsake book that celebrates God and the enduring legacy of women in the Bible.
The album, FAITHFUL: Go And Speak, shares songs from many of today’s renowned artists, songwriters, and authors. Each song on this special thematic album features a woman telling the story of God's faithfulness throughout Scripture to the present day, and 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.
