Recording an album of a collection of new songs and old hymns

WE MADE IT!!!!

Friends, thank you so much for helping us fund our project! We're super stoked and feel totally loved and supported! This whole deal has been so stressful and beautiful. You guys are loved.

Also, remember that 10% of everything we get goes to the spero project (thesperoproject.com) so keep spreading the word! We've got just about a day and a half left!

You guys are crazy awesome.

Friends, we're making a record!  We would love your help.  Kickstarter has given friends, family, and supporters a needed opportunity to jump in and be a part of something meaningful musically and artistically.  It's a community aspect.....and I love it.  Love you guys and am super excited about the coming weeks.  We've compiled a list of songs that we've written as well as revamped in hymns and are gonna split them between two EP style albums (each 5 - 7 songs a piece) to make one full length record.  The first will be the second album in a series called "Hymnody" that we are jumping into at frontline church and will be a combination of hymns and originals. Charlie Hall and his boys released the first this past summer.......we're super stoked about this one.  The second will be all originals and will be released over the summer. (we're super stoked about that one too :). Jump in any way you feel whether financially or through spreading the word....both would be stellar ;).  I love you guys, I love the Church, and I'm grateful.

- Ben

Risks and challenges Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Always risky doing anything that would be labeled in the artistic/musical category. It feels like being exposed to the world. In a sense, you as a songwriter are expressing your thoughts, feelings, interpretations, and dreams for the world (and more specifically Church) to see. Also I'm trusting in the gifting and timing of God to spread out these songs prophetically to His Church. So grateful to be a part of it. So grateful to trust Him even when I don't know outcomes.
