Firm Foundation wins Inspirational Album of the Year at 51st Annual Dove Awards

I AM STILL IN AWE OF THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD! I am so GRATEFUL to have been able to co-write the title track for Inspirational Album of the year Firm Foundation awarded by the 51st Annual Dove Awards.

At a worship team retreat in 2016, I sat down with Piper Jones and Sean Fallon to write a worship song for our congregation to sing. Before writing, we prayed “God, what will your church need to be singing by the time this song is recorded and released?” Out of that prayer came the song “Firm Foundation.”

In 2019, Selah recorded the song “Firm Foundation,” and it became the title track to their album. In 2020, the world faced a global pandemic. Selah released the music video for “Firm Foundation” on March 19th, 2020, which was smack-dab in the middle of the coronavirus hitting the United States. Talk about incredible timing.

In James 3, our tongue is compared to the rudder of a ship. I believe our tongue directs our body where it will go. 2020 was called “The Year of the Mouth” according to the Jewish calendar. SEEING God put these lyrics into the mouths of people during the YEAR of 2020 BLEW MY MIND. God is a FIRM foundation, and we as a people are called to declare who He is and to walk forward steadily despite any circumstance we face. We will not be shaken because we are walking on good ground.

Again, I am so grateful to God to have been a part of this! I am also sending a HUGE THANK YOU to Selah for recording this song and a HUGE congrats to them on their win!!!!
