John Mark McMillan readies worship project 'The Medicine'

AMERICAN worship leader John Mark McMillan, best known for his composition "How He Loves", has a new album, 'The Medicine', released through Integrity-Provident in July. Said the singer/songwriter, "'The Medicine' explores the implications of resurrection in our everyday lives, even the dead places of our lives that need resurrecting. To his own hurt, Jesus chose to be a part of our world. . . we don't serve a God who is unacquainted with grief. That is what 'The Medicine' is about and those are some of the conversations I want to help people have in worship. I want to write songs that give your heart language in the porch lights of your own reckoning; dangerous songs that give you permission to wear your heart on your sleeve before Jesus, unencumbered by the grave clothes of mindless tradition."
