Press Release

On Friday, award-winning artist and songwriter Mac Powell announced his new album, “I Love Jesus,” is releasing Oct. 25. Fans can presave the new album along with his new song, "Good News," which is available now. The title track is also his new radio single impacting radio. Click here to presave the album.

"My new song, 'Good News," reminds us of the simple gospel of the message that Jesus came to this world, and died for our sins so that we could have eternal life," Powell shared. 

After a nearly three-decade career as the lead singer with the Grammy Award-winning band Third Day, Powell released his CCM solo debut in 2021, “New Creation.” This album produced the hit radio singles "New Creation" and "River of Life."

When Powell began working on this new project, he wanted to return to basics. The album is filled with three- and four-chord songs that remind the listener of what God has done in their lives and reminds them of the love of Jesus and one’s love for him. 

Powell said, "With ‘I Love Jesus,’ I wanted to return to the simplicity of what I do. The gospel is a simple truth, and I wanted to share that in simple songs that remind us of what God has done in our lives and remind us of the love of Jesus. I believe this is some of my best work and songs, and I can’t wait to hear the stories of how these songs impact people's lives."

Concertgoers can hear these new songs, as well as fan favorites, this fall, as Powell will appear on tour with Casting Crowns, We The Kingdom, Katy Nichole, Terrian, and David Leonard on "The Awakening Tour" followed by the "United We Worship" tour with Danny Gokey, Tasha Layton and Seph Schlueter.
