Nashville, Tenn. (Aug. 3, 2018) – Living Hope, the newest from worship leader Phil Wickham is available today. The 13-track release includes Wickham's hit single and the album's title track, which has already garnered support from over 40 stations, including K-LOVE, SiriusXM, Family Life Network, Star 99.1/NYC, JoyFM/St. Louis, and Shine.fm/Chicago. "Till I Found You" is also currently being played on Hot AC/CHR stations around the country, including Air 1 and SpiritFM/Tampa. Both songs have garnered over 10 million streams combined since their release.

Full of songs for the church to sing, critics are applauding Wickham’s worship inspired Living Hope with Hallels calling it "a treasure trove to mine as we search to express our worship in ways that are Biblically sound and musically accommodating" and The Christian Beat calling the album "[the] latest addition to his truly unique and celebrated collection. Wickham's genre leading storytelling abilities are again on display as he strikes a chord with the human heart and connects listeners with the Creator."

New Release Today has named Living Hope it's Worship Album of the Year, adding that the project "provides listeners with songs that proclaim acceptance of God’s love in any circumstance...Every single song could be added to your Sunday morning worship set." 365 Days of Inspiring Media adds "This album is for anyone...who loves worship that's unique, fresh, emotive, powerful and heartfelt...standing tall amongst many of the worship album releases of 2018 thus far." 

To celebrate the release of Living Hope, Wickham will be holding an album release show at The Theatre at Ace Hotel in Los Angeles, CA with special guest, Mack Brock. Wickham will perform songs off the new project. Tickets for the special evening are available at www.philwickham.com/tour/.

About Phil Wickham
Phil Wickham is, at his core, a humble and sincere artist who writes songs and worships God using the medium of music. It is with that brush that he paints images of a loving and creative God across the canvases of listeners’ hearts and minds. The evidence of this gift has been apparent on all of his critically acclaimed efforts: Phil Wickham (2006), Cannons (2007), Heaven & Earth (2009), Response (2011), The Ascension (2013) and Children Of God (2016). His RIAA platinum certified single “This Is Amazing Grace” gave Wickham his first career No. 1, holding the top spot on Billboard’s National Christian Audience Chart for 13 consecutive weeks. The honors continued as the single was named Billboard’s 2014 No. 1 Christian Airplay Song of the year and BMI's 2015 Christian Song of the Year. In addition to its success at radio, the song has become a beloved anthem in the modern church, increasing Wickham’s recognition as a gifted artist and songwriter with a true heart of worship. Living Hope, Wickham's newest collection, released today.
