The Story Behind Jesus Never Fails
Jesus Never Fails has become our family’s anthem through some of life’s darkest moments. We discovered this song shortly after Jessica’s life was miraculously spared from a car accident. Jessica and I spent the next 18 months praying for another miracle as she recovered from a traumatic brain injury. What challenged our faith even more was that before her accident, we were hoping to fulfill our dream of adding to our family—a dream that we realized may never happen due to her injuries.
One evening, as I was playing through a new song, Jessica, in her makeshift recovery room nearby, recognized it instantly as a song her grandmother had taught her as a child. As she sang the lyrics, “Sometimes this world brings troubles that I find so hard to bear. I know I could not make it without Jesus being there. It’s so encouraging to know, however deep we’re in despair, that Jesus never fails.” We experienced a sense of peace and calm that words can’t begin to describe. Jesus Never Fails has been such an encouragement for us. Jessica and I pray that it gives you the same peace and hope it has given us.
While it has been an incredibly challenging journey, we’re so thankful to share that we have been blessed with two of the most amazing, energetic, loving, and beautiful girls. Claire and Josie, we couldn’t be more thankful for you both. With all our hearts and all our love, we dedicate this album to you!
