Sovereign Grace Music will be releasing their most recent album, Sons & Daughters, this Wednesday (August 5) at their WorshipGod09 conference. Bob Kauflin introduces the album a bit:
The songs are primarily meant for congregational worship, and focus on themes related to 1 John 3:1: “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.”
The project came out of a perceived lack of songs that help us meditate on the unfathomable love God has shown us in adopting us through Jesus Christ (Eph. 1:5). We are now part of God’s family – in Christ we will forever be the objects of God’s particular and passionate mercy and love. We are not only forgiven, we are co-heirs with Christ, and never again have to doubt God’s care for us. That biblical reality, rather than leaving us focused on ourselves, drives us once again to proclaim the greatness of the God whose grace turns hopeless rebels into the precious children.
I just checked out the samples of the 12 new songs on this album. They sound fantastic (as is typical for all their albums). [I’d imagine that after this Wednesday, this album will be added to the Sovereign Grace Music Store.]
