The book was inspired by MercyMe's hit song of the same name. "For the first time in my life, I have a message that I think is imperative for people to hear," Millard says. The book hinges on the theme of the song, which Millard describes as "the idea that when God looks at us, no matter what we've done, no matter what we're going through ... he stands over it and says, 'You are forgiven. You are redeemed.' That's the finished work of the cross." The song was written while Millard and his bandmates came to a place many of do at one time or another. He says, "we found ourselves literally questioning why we were doing what we were doing, after 18 years." Millard was wrestling with questions about living under grace, and this search reenergized Millard's faith. The good news of the Gospel breaks through this, they declare: "Our value is found in our spiritual identity, not in earthly accomplishments." The Hurt & The Healer shows that God is our Counselor, Comforter and Healer: "He's not shocked or disappointed with us when we hurt. We don't have to pretend," they write. "No matter what trouble you might be facing right now, our desire is that you know that you're always in good company. The entire Trinity is pleased to have you. You are deeply loved, you are completely forgiven, and you are, never, ever, alone." The book has already received very favorable reviews "...eye-opening, lifechanging ... Rules do not set us free, but being set free by the truth is real! It's going to be exciting to see how God uses The Hurt & The Healer in so many people's lives." —Amy Grant. Phil Wickham Brings New Songs of Ascent After ten years and nine albums this new project focused on the forward movement of faith. This new studio record, The Ascension, releases Sept. 24, and draws Phil's compelling vocals and spiritual sensibilities into a community of music that has always been a passion for him: worship. The Ascension was inspired by the Songs of Ascent passages in the book of Psalms, songs sung by the Jews when they would 'ascend' to visit the Holy Temple for festivals. Phil's modern Songs of Ascent bring together melodic hymns and vibrant lyrics and is present in the album's 11-tracks. The album's lead single "This Is Amazing Grace" is currently at radio and speaks on God's unfailing love and amazing grace. Phil shares on The Ascension, "God no longer dwells in the city or in the temple. But the Church has become the city. The Church has become his temple. Every time we get together as a body—whether it's a home fellowship or in a mega-church—his temple is gathering together. He's living inside of us, creating a special moment that's been ordained. I wanted to write modern Songs of Ascent." STEVE TURLEY, Station manager Christian 107.3 COMMENTS? Editor@upancomingweekly.com.
