The Me That Remains is the upcoming 20th studio album by Christian singer - songwriter Amy Grant . It will be released by Amy Grant Productions with distribution by Thirty Tigers on May 8, 2026. Grant returns with her first new non-holiday album in over 13 years. Between her last release How Mercy Looks from Here   and this album, Grant has kept herself busy focusing on her reissues of older titles from her catalog of the 1990s and releasing them as expanded anniversary editions ( Heart in Motion , House of Love and Behind the Eyes ) and going on the road and touring with her band performing her hits. Grant has also released some non-album digital tracks including a cover of Jackie DeShannon's 1969 hit "Put a Little Love in Your Heart " in 2022 and two songs in 2023: "Trees We'll Never See" and "What You Heard." In her personal life, Grant had an open-heart surgery to repair partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR), a congenital heart condition in June 2020. Two years later in July 2022, Grant was hospitalized in Nashville following a bicycle accident and, on doctors' advice, postponed several concert dates while she recovered. After her recovery, Grant became the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors in December 2022. She is the first contemporary Christian artist to do so. The Me That Remains begins a new chapter in Grant's life. Produced by Mac McAnally, this very personal album is a journey through themes of healing, human and spiritual connection, unity and hope. The album features collaborations with American recording artist Ruby Amanfu and Grant's husband Vince Gill, along with co-writing partners Jon Foreman (Switchfoot), Tom Douglas, Mike Reid, McAnally and more. The Me That Remains opens with the track "On the 6th of January (Yasgur's Farm)," which Grant released on January 6, 2026 to precede the album. The song explores themes of hope, healing and unity by contrasting the idealistic spirit of Woodstock (Yasgur's Farm) with modern-day unrest, questioning if society has lost its way while encouraging finding common ground and personal agency in uncertain times. The title song, which she released on February 20, 2026 along with the album announcement and music video, is a reflection of Grant’s journey over the last few years, overcoming heart surgery and the bike accident that nearly took her life. Grant’s music always looks through a lens of hope and faith while probing the human condition with honest commentary, inviting a conversation. The album sounds and reads somewhat like a ‘life manual’ written from the perspective of an artist who has lived through it all, knows who she is as an artist and human, and as Grant has said, "I want to be present for whatever emerges in my time." Then on March 27, 2026, the next single and music video " How Do We Get There From Here" featuring Grant and Amanfu was released. The song was written by Grant and Amanfu as a response to the 2023 Covenant school shooting in Nashville. It was intentionally released on the third anniversary of the tragedy to reflect on collective healing, resilience, and the search for restoration in a divided world. The Me That Remains is on pre-order for both physical (CD and vinyl) and digital releases (download and streaming). Amazon will release an exclusive CD edition of the album with two extra bonus track, also on pre-order.

Point of Grace is an all-female contemporary Christian music vocal group. The current trio consists of Shelley Breen, Denise Jones, and Leigh Cappillino. The group started out as a quartet in 1991, with original members Breen and Jones, as well as Terry Jones and Heather Payne. Terry Jones left in November 2003 to spend more time with her family after the birth of her third child, with Cappillino joining in March 2004 for their 2004 release I Choose You . In June 2008, Payne announced her retirement from the group to spend more time with her family. The group has had more than 24 number one songs, mainly on the Christian adult contemporary chart, has sold millions of records throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, won 13 Dove Awards and has earned three Grammy Award nominations. Point of Grace was formed at Ouachita Baptist University (OBU) in Arkadelphia, Arkansas by Denise Masters, Terry Lang, and Heather Floyd, who knew one another from Norman, Oklahoma and sang together in a 14-member female vocal group called The Ouachitones. The three women formed a trio within the group, and were singing a cappella after a sound check when an onlooker suggested that they should do something together. Shelley Phillips from Little Rock, Arkansas came to OBU on a scholarship in vocal performance and was singing in a group called the Praise Singers, made up of four women and four men, who traveled around the country performing. She was a roommate and sister of Masters in the Chi Delta, and when Masters, Lang, and Floyd decided to form a trio, Phillips suggested that she join to form a quartet. The group called themselves Say So, taken from Psalm 107:2 ("Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.") The group shared their own management, with Floyd responsible for publicity and album sales, Lang for finances, Phillips for booking, and Masters in charge of music; they also carried and set up their own equipment before performances. They performed every weekend for the rest of that year, then recorded an independent album. They attended the 1992 Music in the Rockies Christian Artists Seminar in Estes Park, Colorado, at which they won the Overall Grand Prize in the Group competition with a performance of "He's The Best Thing." The group subsequently received interest from major record labels, and signed with Word Records, moving to Nashville, Tennessee to record their self-titled debut album. Point of Grace 's debut single "I'll Be Believing" became the group's first number one song. The album's next five singles also reached the top of the charts, a record that has not yet been equaled. In 1994, they were named New Artist of the Year at the 25th GMA Dove Awards and embarked on a national tour with Wayne Watson, for whom they sang backup after opening each concert. After that tour ended, they began doing concerts on their own. Their follow -up album The Whole Truth was released in 1995 and produced more number one songs. The next five years would see Point of Grace produce more consecutive number one songs than any other act in Christian music and has released three Christmas albums. On October 29, 2025, Point of Grace started a weekly podcast, or "POGcast," titled Circle of Friends . They share about current events, the inside scoop on their friendship, helpful tips and more. Their new studio album Lady Wisdom will be released on March 27, 2026.

Deborah Anne Boone (born September 22, 1956) is an American singer, author, and actress. She is best known for her 1977 hit, "You Light Up My Life," which spent ten weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and led to her winning the Grammy Award for Best New Artist the following year. Boone later focused her music career on country music, resulting in the 1980 No. 1 country hit "Are You on the Road to Lovin' Me Again". In the 1980s, she recorded Christian music which garnered her four top 10 Contemporary Christian albums as well as two more Grammys. Throughout her career, Boone has appeared in several musical theater productions and has co-authored many children's books with her husband Gabriel Ferrer. Debby Boone was born in Hackensack, New Jersey, the third of four daughters born to singer-actor Pat Boone and Shirley Foley Boone, daughter of country music star Red Foley. When Boone was 14 years old, she began touring with her parents and three sisters: Cherry, Lindy, and Laury. The sisters first recorded with their parents as The Pat Boone Family and later as the Boones or Boone Girls. They primarily recorded gospel music, although the sisters also released singles for the Motown and Curb labels that were remakes of secular pop music featuring Debby as the lead vocalist. The Boones twice reached Billboard 's AC charts with 1975's "When the Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes" (No. 25), a remake of the Supremes' first top 40 hit, and 1977's "Hasta Mañana" (No. 32), a cover of a track from ABBA's Waterloo album. With her older sisters married and younger sister Laury in college, Boone was actively encouraged by producer Mike Curb to launch a solo career. Boone released her first solo effort, "You Light Up My Life" (which had been featured in the film of the same name), in 1977. The song became the biggest hit of the 1970s, lasting ten consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 – longer than any other song in Hot 100 history to that point (In 2008, Billboard ranked the song No. 7 among all songs that charted in the 50-year history of the Hot 100). The song earned Boone a Grammy Award for Best New Artist and an American Music Award for Favorite Pop Single of 1977. She also received Grammy nominations for Best Pop Vocal Performance – Female and Record of the Year won by, respectively, Barbra Streisand ("Love Theme From 'A Star Is Born' (Evergreen)") and the Eagles ("Hotel California"). "You Light Up My Life" also succeeded on Billboard 's Adult Contemporary (No. 1 for one week) and Country (No. 4) singles charts. "You Light Up My Life" also succeeded on Billboard 's Adult Contemporary (No. 1 for one week) and Country (No. 4) singles charts. The single and the album (No. 6 Pop, No. 6 Country) of the same name were both certified platinum. The song, written and produced by Joe Brooks, was from the film of the same name. Brooks earned Song of the Year awards at both the 1978 Grammys and Oscars for writing the song (Boone performed the song at both award shows). Boone's version was not used in the film, nor featured on its soundtrack. The song was lip-synched in the film by its star, Didi Conn, performing to vocals recorded by Kacey Cisyk. It was written as a love song, but Boone interpreted the song as inspirational and stated that she recorded the song for God. Boone's overnight success led to a tour with her father and frequent television appearances, but she was unable to maintain her success in pop music after "You Light Up My Life". Her follow-up single, "California" (also written and produced by Joe Brooks), peaked at No. 50 Pop and No. 20 AC, and was included on Boone's second album, Midstream , which faltered at No. 147 Pop. Her next single, the double-sided "God Knows"/"Baby I'm Yours," also struggled, peaking at No. 74 Pop, becoming her last entry on the Hot 100. After her time on pop music, Boone began to focus on country music with the release of her fourth album Love Has No Reason in 1980. After releasing several singles on the country chart, Boone hit number 1 with "Are You On the Road to Lovin' Me Again" where it stayed there for one week. Boone was in good company on the Billboard Country Songs chart for the week ending April 19, 1980 where the Top 5 positions were dominated by women with Crystal Gayle, Dottie West, Emmylou Harris and Tammy Wynette. That same year, Boone released her first Christian music album With My Song . In 1981, Boone won both a Grammy and Dove Award for With My Song . At the end of 1980, Boone returned to country music with her next release Savin' It Up , where the album yield two Top 40 country hits. By the time she released her third single "It'll Be Him," it had just missed the Country Top 40. No more singles were released to both country and adult contemporary radio. After the release Savin' It Up , Boone instead concentrated on a national tour starring in the musical, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers , before recording several Christian albums during the rest of the 1980s. Boone had more success in Christian music throughout the 1980s. Her next Christian music release Surrender (1983) won her another Grammy Award for Best Gospel Performance by a Duo or Group for the single "Keep the Flame Burning" with Christian musician and vocalist Phil Driscoll and another Dove Award for Best Album by a Secular Artist. In 1984, Boone co-starred in the television movie Sins of the Past as Clarissa Hope, a call girl who is born again and becomes an evangelical singer: also co-starring Kirstie Alley, Barbara Carrera, Kim Cattrall and Anthony Geary, Sins of the Past became a Top 10 Nielsen hit. Boone has since made guest appearances on several television shows including Step by Step and Baywatch Nights and was featured in the television films Come on, Get Happy: The Partridge Family Story and Treehouse Hostage . Boone released her next Christian albums Choose Life (1985), Friends for Life (1987), Be Thou My Vision (1989) and her Christmas release Home for Christmas (1989). After a 16 year gap, Boone returned in 2005 with her next release Reflections of Rosemary . The album's name refers to American singer and actress Rosemary Clooney, who was Boone's mother-in-law. It is a tribute album for Clooney who died in 2002, intended to be a musical portrait of her, or as Boone put it: "I wanted to select songs that would give an insight into Rosemary from a family perspective." Boone's most recent release was in 2013 with Swing This , which was a covers album of jazz and swing material.

Home for Christmas is the 11th studio and Christmas album by American singer Debby Boone , originally released in the fall of 1989 by Lamb & Lion/Benson Records. The album was produced by Dan Posthuman and Boone's husband Gabriel Ferrer. This was Boone's second album release of 1989 (Boone released her hymns album Be Thou My Vision earlier that year) and her final recording of the 1980s as she was focusing on her acting career in television and on stage throughout the 1990s. It would be more than 15 years later when Boone returned to music and released her tribute album to her mother-in-law Rosemary Clooney entitled Reflections of Rosemary . Clooney herself duets with Boone singing the classic standard "White Christmas," in which Clooney co-starred in the 1954 motion picture of the same name with crooner Bing Crosby, which he originally recorded back in 1942. Crosby's more famous version was recorded in 1947. Three different editions of the album were produced; one in 1989 by Lamb & Lion, a CD re-release in 1992 by Sparrow Records, and another CD with new cover art in 2002 by Curb Records.

The Name Above All Names is the sixth studio album by Christian singer - songwriter Chuck Girard . It was released in 1983 on his newly-formed independent label Seven Thunders Records. The label was named after passages from Revelation 10: 1 -7. After the release of his 1980 album The Stand and dropped by Word Records, Girard took some time off from recording music and went through a time in his life that he described as "a time of correction and spiritual renewal," resulting in a commitment to refocus his music ministry on worship leadership. Girard was in a new season of his life after his alcohol addiction. The Name Above All Names was the result. His first album in three years, Girard co-produced it with Bob Rose, who produced his last album The Stand and Girard solely produced the track "Don't Shoot the Wounded." The title song would later be recorded by Debby Boone as the lead single for her 1987 release Friends for Life . This is the first album Girard had ever written that was directly addressing the needs and concerns of the church. His previous albums had been more evangelistic, essentially addressing non-believers, the songs being about one’s need for Jesus or his personal experiences in the Lord.

Deep Valley is an "unearthed" live concert album by Christian singer - songwriter Rich Mullins . It was originally released in 2022 on a custom label called Old Bear Records. It was available for a limited time on vinyl and on CD, it contained five bonus tracks, plus it is the official live recording available to the public and his first official posthumous release in over 20 years. Deep Valley was made available on digital platforms for streaming on February 10, 2023. Recorded at Deep Valley Christian Camp in Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania in 1984, just two years before Mullins released his self-titled debut album, the recording captures Mullins in the early 1980s, serving as a bridge between his time as a songwriter for other artists and his later career as a solo artist. It features tracks consisting of both music and "Richard Rants"—Mullins' signature rambling, insightful talks between songs. It includes familiar and "new" recordings of songs that were recorded by other artists like "Sing Your Praise to the Lord" ( Amy Grant ) and "O Come All Ye Faithful" ( Debby Boone ) and songs that Mullins wrote and kept for himself like "A Few Good Men" and "Elijah." The project was executive produced by Mullins' life-long friend Beth Snell Lutz, who was also a one-time band mate of Mullins' band Zion. She is also the keeper of Mullins' early music catalog. Co-executive producers were Andrew Greer, Anthony Hoisington and Dave Trout. Chris Marchand and Joe Cook were assistant producers. The project was funded as a stretch goal for the Kickstarter campaign for the release of another Mullins' tribute album entitled Bellsburg - The Songs of Rich Mullins , which was released in 2022 featuring various artists taking on his songs.
