Current single “Human” Impacting Radio with a #25 Debut this Week at Christian AC, Representing Highest New Entry and #1 Most Added Song

Nashville, Tenn. (Sept. 2, 2010) – Curb Records recording artist Natalie Grant’s highly-anticipated eighth studio album, Love Revolution, has debuted at #2 on Billboard’s Top Christian Albums Chart and landed at #32 on the Billboard Top 200, making this the best sales week of Grant’s 10-year music career.
“It’s such a pleasure working with a talented artist such as Natalie,” Benson Curb, vice president of sales at Curb Records said. “Love Revolution, and the music on this album, is great and it’s not a surprise that this has been her biggest sales week ever.” 

Released nationwide on August 24, 2010, Love Revolution features Grant’s recently released single, “Human,” which is currently impacting radio with a #25 debut this week at Christian AC, representing the highest new entry and #1 most added song.

“Human,” was performed live by Grant and American Idol winner Jordin Sparks (who co-wrote the song) on the national television broadcast of the 41st Annual GMA Dove Awards in April of 2010. The song reiterates the album’s theme of change through the powerful tie that binds us all—our humanity.

Described by Grant as the album of her career, Love Revolution represents musical styles as diverse as her own influences—from soaring ballads like “Power of the Cross” and worshipful songs like “Your Great Name”, to the R&B/funk vibe heard in songs like “Beauty Mark” and “Someday Our King Will Come.” With Grant’s husband, Bernie Herms, at the helm of production, Love Revolution is a cohesive project that speaks to the hearts of listeners, motivating them to be the change that they want to see in their world, challenging each of us to start a love revolution.

I’m so excited about the new project. While I love my job and the gift it is to be able to make music, this is more than just music to me. It’s really more about a movement. My prayer is that the music will compel the you to live the love of the gospel out loud. My prayer is that we return to the simplicity of the message. Jesus said, “Love me. Love others. And think about others more than you think about yourself.”

I know I’ve complicated it a long the way. And I know I’ve gotten in the way. My dreams, my plans, my agendas, my hopes….somehow they would always make their way to center stage. But I’m ready to revolutionize that part of my life. Are you? I’m ready to love out loud. I’m daring to be more than what this culture tells me. I’m daring to be all that God’s made me. Are you? The Bible in Colossians 3:12 says to clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. You want to be a trend-setting fashion statement? Start being kind for no reason. Show compassion. Be patient. I promise you people will notice. And it just might be contagious.  Don’t wait for a love revolution. BE the love revolution. It’s not about religion. It’s about relationship. The kind of relationship that changes everything.

I thought for the start of the Love Revolution campaign, I would do something, well, revolutionary. So I’ve partnered with a team of other artists and authors and people just like you as a part of the 31 Days of Freedom Campaign. July is the month that we celebrate our Declaration Of Independence. But there are many around the world, many in this very country who are not free. Slavery still exists. The most innocent among us are being ravaged in the most horrific of ways through the realities of human trafficking. But one by one, we can stand for their freedom. Being a revolutionary can stem from the simplest of acts. This is what I’ve decided to do. For the month of July, my family is giving up movies. No theaters. No redbox. No Comcast On-Demand. And everything we would have spent on movies every week, we’re donating to the building of domestic, faith-based shelters for victims of human trafficking. It may seem small. But EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS. So as we get ready to celebrate our country’s freedom, let’s remember those who are not free. Would you join me? What will you give up? http://www.thehomefoundation.net/31days/

Love God. Love people. That’s it.

Today’s your day. Start a love revolution.

"Greatness of our God" Available Today! is a post from: Natalie Grant

I love one of the definitions I read for the word ‘revolution‘ that said “a sudden, complete or marked change of something.” Before we can see true, marked and complete change of our culture, our families, our schools and communities, we must first have a revolution of our own hearts. “Greatness Of Our God,” written by Reuben Morgan, Jason Ingram and Stu Garrard, stirred up a revolution in my heart the very first time i heard it. While I like to write most of the songs I record, I didn’t feel like i was recording someone else’s spiritual experience. I feel like this song is everyone’s experience. God is greater than every circumstance, every problem, every disappointment. And there is NOTHING that can separate us from His love. I so easily get distracted by the little details of life. I have to readjust my perspective. While my mind cannot begin to truly comprehend the greatness of God, neither can any of my doubts restrain His greatness. I’m so grateful that in these strange and scary times – from political unrest, economic struggles, natural disasters or personal catastrophes, God is in control. And though I don’t need to get bogged down with the details of life, I am so glad I serve a God who in interested and involved in every detail.

No sky contains
No doubt restrains
All You are, the greatness of our God
I’ll spend my life to know
And I’m far from close to all You are
The greatness of our God

So give me eyes to see more of who You are…..

Hope you enjoy the song. Let me know what you think about it.
