Revered Christian band, Newsboys, have released their anthemic new album Worldwide Revival (Part One). Featuring eight new songs, including the previously released “Heaven On Earth” and “He Lives,” the album was crafted with the intention of creating a collection of new songs deeply rooted in Biblical truth and driven by fervent prayer. Listen to Worldwide Revival (Part One) here.
“Worldwide Revival is a project that we’ve poured ourselves into for the last two years. It’s a little bit surreal to finally be releasing it to the world, but this collection of songs has been prayed over and intentionally crafted to share the message we feel God has put on our hearts in this season, and we’re proud to finally be sharing it,” Newsboys shared. “Our hope is that this music meets exactly the person that it needs to, and that it will spark ‘tiny revivals’ in the hearts of many.”
From start to finish, each track reflects a dedication to spiritual authenticity, aiming to inspire and uplift listeners with its faith-based messages. “How Many Times,” co-written by recently added bandmate Adam Agee alongside Jordan Sapp, Jonathan Conrad Gamble and Wes Campbell, explores themes of hardship and the everlasting persistence of divine guidance. Watch the music video for the song here. With the creation of this album, all five members, Michael Tait, Duncan Phillips, Jeff Frankenstein, Jody Davis and Adam Agee, have dedicated themselves to reinvention and inspiration in the midst of following their calling, as evident in other tracks such as “Color” and “In God We Trust.” Split into two parts, the second installment of Worldwide Revival will hit shelves in 2025.
Over the last 30+ years, Newsboys have propelled countless hits up the charts, all while exploring the universe of books and film. Drawing inspiration from Newsboys and their revolutionary music once again, the fifth installment of the critically acclaimed film franchise, “God’s Not Dead: In God We Trust,” will be released September 12, 2024. On the heels of the album release, the band will resume their Worldwide Revival Nights Tour tomorrow, July 20 in Denver, Colorado, with additional stops in Arizona, Wyoming, Montana, Indiana and Arkansas among others.
