Passion: Take It All captures the powerful movement of the 2014 Passion conferences that took place in both Atlanta and Houston earlier this year. Many acclaimed worship leaders, including GRAMMY(r) winners Chris Tomlin and Matt Redman, along with Crowder, Christy Nockels, Kristian Stanfill and Brett Younker, helped lead the conferences and are featured on the album. There have been endless praises for the album: All About Worship says "Take It All is a great collection of songs, each of which could be praised individually."
Along with the incredible musicians that led music at Passion 2014, there were renowned pastors and teachers including Louie Giglio, John Piper, Beth Moore, Francis Chan, Christine Caine and Judah Smith. The conference was attended by over 35,000 students representing 46 countries and more than 1,200 universities. During the two gatherings, students were challenged to personally give $500,000 to fund the printing and distribution of scripture for the people of Iran. Amazingly, this goal was exceeded as willing students gave over $670,000, providing 65,000+ Bibles to the people of Iran.
Earlier this year the Passion team visited Abu Dhabi, Hyderabad, Delhi, Manila, Singapore and Honolulu on their 2014 Global Tour. Tens of thousands gathered to join in glorifying the name of Jesus around the world.
