Worship Initiativeās Aaron Williams offers his first full-length project, āThe Hope of Christ,ā centered on the grace, love, and rest Jesus offers.
āThe overarching theme that inspired this project is summed up in āAbide,āā Williams said in a release. āWe live in a world that often leaves us feeling like the only way forward is to hustle, achieve, and prove our value. Jesus offers a different way of lifeāa way that still leads to fruitfulness but does so out of a place of acceptance and life-giving relationship. To abide is to learn to live in dependence on God for all things.ā This record is a jewel with songs such as the title cut, āChrist is Enough,ā āWalk by Faith,'' and āNo Height No Depth.ā The latter, a beautiful ballad, was written about Williamsās close friend who nearly died from mental illness. A verse states, āI donāt understand the hurt; But I donāt have the answers; When I am fighting to believe; You are never far from me.ā This joyful worship album reminds the listener of a profound truthāthere is security in Christ and none other.
