You Are With Me - new EP from Leslie Jordan!

Leslie Jordan releases “You Are With Me,” her awaited second studio EP. Serving as B- sides to her fall 2022 project, “All That I Need To Know,” which took on an aerial view of truths about God, this new batch of songs dives deeply into the raw and visceral nature of God’s presence. The new EP features five worship-filled songs of significance to Leslie that she previously wrote and were recorded on friends’ projects, such as Sandra McCracken, Citizens, The Porter’s Gate, and Hannah Hobbs. Among the hundreds of songs Leslie has written and collaborated on, occasionally, a song that feels like a piece of herself will rise to the surface. She decided to share a collection of such songs in a fresh format with her own voice, unveiling a central theme of God’s “withness” with His people in every season.

“There is some goodness and truth but also some discovery and some longing,” she says. “My faith journey and my relationship with God is ever-changing, and I think you can hear that in these songs.”

From the pains of her experience of waiting to adopt a child, to social justice and the widespread battles of mental health in the Church, “You Are With Me” embodies the closeness of God. Though Leslie approaches complex themes, there is a sweetness and brightness shining through this EP, which was recorded at Fox Den Studios and co- produced with Jess Ray. Her compassion and nurturing heart are reflected in the words and melodies of these songs, extending an invitation to be cared for and seen by God to all people – whether in or outside of the church.

This Is How We Know What Love Is

Anchor Hymns announces a new EP coming in the fall with first single “This Is How We Know What Love Is.” This song is rooted in 1 John 3:16-18, exhorting us to love in truth through action. The collective wanted to write a simple, easy to sing meditation on this important Scripture, particularly at a time of angst and division. Led by Jasmine Mullen, “This Is How We Know What Love Is” expands on a soft and comforting melody describing the inspiration Jesus' sacrifice has on our souls. Anchor Hymns hopes to equip the Church with this simple call and response song as an invitation into a richer, more vibrant life of obedience and love.

Sing His Name

Introducing “Sing His Name,” a brand-new single from Vineyard Worship that encapsulates the power and significance of Jesus' name. The Vineyard team encourage the Church to remember that for every season of life, there's a reason to sing the name of Jesus. Their hope is that “Sing His Name” would become a sung encouragement that connects the worshiping church to the transformative power of Jesus, inspiring their devotion and filling hearts with His presence. “Sing His Name” is the second single from upcoming album “This Joy – Live from Vineyard Worship,” releasing in September 2023.
