Casting Crowns’ Mark Hall, Matthew West set to release late summer book projects<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two influential voices within the Christian music community will be releasing compelling books this late summer. On August 30th, Zondervan will release the latest book from Casting Crowns<\/a> lead singer Mark Hall. The Well: Why Are So Many Still Thirsty? <\/em>This challenging read takes the New Testament story of Jesus’ encounter with the woman at the well and paints a vivid picture of what the world offers for satisfaction as opposed to the living water available through a relationship with Christ.<\/p>\n

A day later, Harvest House releases the debut book from singer\/songwriter Matthew West<\/a> titled The Story of Your Life: Inspiring Stories of God at Work in People Just like You<\/em>. Co-written with Angela Thomas, this release shares compelling fan-submitted tales of God’s grace, love and forgiveness.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs stories began to pour in by the thousands, I quickly sensed that not only was something special taking place, but that my life was about to change,\u201d West said in a press release. \u201cDuring those months, my eyes were opened to see the world outside my door like I had never witnessed before.\u201d<\/p>\n

West will headline “The Story of Your Life” Tour this fall with guest Jonny Diaz while Mark Hall will hit the road with Casting Crowns for the “Come To The Well” Tour.<\/p>\n

Upcoming releases (August 16)<\/strong>
\n<\/strong>Beckah Shae – Destiny <\/em>(Shae Shoc)
\nThe Grace Card DVD<\/em> (Provident Films)
