DIFFERENT STORY A

CD - Jon Thurlow

In his first full-length album since 2013, longtime International House of Prayer of Kansas City (IHOPKC) worship leader Jon Thurlow addresses themes of redemption, trial, and hope on Different Story. Jon, whose first Forerunner Music album was the live Stand in Awe and has appeared on numerous Onething Live albums, took some time to craft the songs on this release, thanks in part to various personal challenges and transitions. The title track to Jon s first Nashville recording was influenced by his first time working with legendary multi-Grammy-Award-winning producer Brown Bannister, and multi-talented Ben Shive (Laura Hackett Park, Brandon Heath, Bebo Norman, JJ Heller, Andrew Peterson). Other highlights include the first studio recordings of Shout Your Name title track to the 2014 Onething Live album. Jon's hope for listeners is that these songs be an onramp for them to connect to the Lord, whether in prayer or with the song coming from the Lord's heart back to us. He says he wants listeners to feel a pull back to Jesus, that it would be a connection point.
