features Brian Johnson, Jenn Johnson, Hunter Thompson, Amanda Cook, Matt Stinton and several new artists
Bethel Music, the worship ministry of Redding, CA-based Bethel Church, releases the highly anticipated We Will Not Be Shaken CD/DVD internationally January 27 with Provident Music Distribution. Recorded during an evening of worship on a mountaintop overlooking Shasta Lake north of Redding, the live album and DVD present 11 new songs led by the Bethel Music Artist Collective, including Brian Johnson, Jenn Johnson, Hunter Thompson, Amanda Cook and Matt Stinton, as well as debut artists Kalley Heiligenthal, Hannah McClure, Paul McClure, Jonathan David Helser and Melissa Helser.
The We Will Not Be Shaken album (produced by Bobby Strand and Chris Greely) and film (directed by Nathan Grubbs and Luke Manwaring) chronicles the sound and breath-taking visuals from a multi-camera shoot that includes aerial views from a drone aircraft's camera flying overhead at this unique gathering.
Meant to be a catalyst for other worship communities to take hold of what it means to "not be shaken," We Will Not Be Shaken's title track was birthed in a spontaneous moment of worship on a Sunday morning service at Bethel. The song hails a message of promise amidst adversity and the victory believers have in Jesus, while the recording powerfully captures the track's energy and declaration, inviting listeners to join in praise.
Leading songs from We Will Not Be Shaken amidst capacity crowds in venues around the country while on tour last month, Bethel Music's new album follows Hunter Thompson's acclaimed Swan Song, released last week, Steffany Gretzinger's The Undoing released in August and You Make Me Brave released last April. The Undoing hit No. 2 on the Billboard Christian charts, No. 20 on the Billboard Top 200 and reached Top 3 during release week on iTunes in the US. You Make Me Brave launched in its debut week at retail to No. 10 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, becoming the highest charting retail debut ever for Bethel Music (Tides Hit No. 30 Sept. 2013). In February 2014, Bethel Music's Tides Live shot to No. 1 on iTunes' Christian/Gospel chart, and Bethel's first-ever studio album, Tides (Sept. 2013), hit No. 1 on the overall Top Christian/Gospel Albums and Praise & Worship Billboard retail charts amidst unprecedented international acclaim.
