NASHVILLE, TENN. (OCTOBER 15, 2021) Today singer-songwriter and author Ellie Holcomb celebrates the release of her first devotional book: Fighting Words - 100 Days of Speaking Truth into the Darkness (B&H Publishing). Named after one of her hit songs, "Fighting Words," Holcomb's devotional book is filled with encouraging, honest reflections and questions to help you process scripture. Fighting Words is a place where you can wrestle, respond to, and take hold of precious truths in God's Word to help you push back the lies that so often consume, distract, and destroy us. Click here to purchase Fighting Words.
Nearly a decade ago, Holcomb began memorizing Scripture with a friend of hers that was battling depression. They started committing God's Word to memory and called these verses their "Fighting Words." She has continued to do this with her music that is scripture-based and on her socials, she has shared regularly #FightingWords of encouragement for her community.
"I wrote this book for any woman who feels like she needs an anchor, a shelter, a light, or a song full of truth to sing into the shadows in her own life or the world around her," shares Ellie Holcomb about her book. "I wrote this for any woman who feels like she might be all alone in the midst of doubts or uncertainty, for any woman who feels weary and in need of some hope. I wrote it for women who are thirsty, scared, hurting, or looking for a guiding light."
Leading up to the release of Fighting Words, KLOVE ON-Demand features Holcomb in the "Artist Circle Study" for "Fighting Words Devotional" - click here to watch the first episode. She has also shared more about this book with media outlets such as TODAY In Nashville and spent time virtually with Ryan Seacrest Foundation's studio at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt. Holcomb recently chatted with various podcasts like Sadie Robertson Huff's Whoa That's Good podcast, Lifeway Women's MARKED podcast, and the 10,000 Minutes "The Experiment" Podcast.
This devotional marks her first book for adults as she has previously released two best-selling children's books through B&H Publishing Group (Don't Forget to Remember, 2020 and Who Sang the First Song, 2018). With these books, she spent several months on the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) juvenile bestseller list and was a finalist for Christian Book of the Year in the children's category (for Who Sang the First Song). She also released accompanying EPs with each picture book and was nominated for both for the GMA Dove Award for Children's Project of the Year, which she won in 2020 for Sing: Remembering Songs.
About Ellie Holcomb: For eight years, she recorded and toured full-time with her husband's band, Drew Holcomb and The Neighbors, before stepping off the road when her first child was born. Her solo debut, As Sure As The Sun (2014), landed her a Top 10 hit on Christian radio with "The Broken Beautiful" and a GMA Dove Award for "New Artist of the Year." Her critically-acclaimed sophomore LP, Red Sea Road, followed in 2017. In subsequent years, Holcomb has released two children's books - each with a companion EP of original music written specifically for kids, the second of which earned her a Dove Award for "Children's Album of the Year," in 2020. This summer she released her third full-length solo project, Canyon, to much acclaim. "A deeper sorrow, a higher hope; to be broken is to be human," Ellie Holcomb says to sum up the content of her latest album. For more information visit: ellieholcomb.com
