Jesus Songs Passion Movement

Before it was the anthem we sing in our churches today, “I Speak Jesus” was a call to share stories and praise the Lord in your living room. Jesse Reeves dives into the story behind “I Speak Jesus,” what he has learned throughout his years of following Jesus, and how obedience breeds beauty.

A single lyric change and an empty room shaped this song into the powerhouse we know and love. Chris Brown sits down with Brett Younker to share how “Graves Into Garden” bloomed in the pandemic, what it looks like to push the boundaries of church music, and how better beats greater.

This guest and song need no introduction. Jenn Johnson sits down with Brett to unveil how one of the most prolific worship songs in the church today, “Goodness of God,” came to be. Jenn reflects on life as a young worship leader and what it has looked like to watch this song be carried across the globe.

Something magical happens when songs catch wind, and “So Will I (100 Billion X)” is one of those songs. Benjamin William Hastings dives into the story behind the song, uncovering how it came to life and what single lyric he considers the best.

As we look back at episodes from Season 1, we couldn’t pick a better song to lay the foundation. Cody Carnes joins Brett Younker to share how “Firm Foundation (He Won’t)” went from scripture to a voice memo to an anthem we have been carrying at Passion Conference for years now. Discover more about how this song came to life, and listen to Cody lead it at Passion 2024 on our latest album release, “Call on Heaven.”

Welcome back to another season of Jesus Songs!
This season, we are crafting more episodes centered around worship songs you know and love, and looking back to some of our favorite conversations over the past year.
