I had the opportunity (excitedly I admit as I am a huge fan) to listen to the CD before its release. The CD did not disappoint that is for sure. After being in the industry 15 years, Jeremy has won many awards. He has had albums and songs top the charts and this one I am sure will be no exception. Multiple award-winning and GRAMMY® nominee artist JEREMY CAMP releases his new studio album, The Answer, on October 6.  Promoting his new album, Jeremy will be headlining The Answer Tour. The complete list of tour dates are listed, and tickets are on sale today at jeremycamp.com. I will say that after listening to his new album, repeatedly over that past few days. There are sure some songs that will be favorites of mine. Camp, like on many other albums of his shines through with his diverse talents. Ballads like The Answer and Never Stopped Loving Me, he is known for. His powerful vocals on songs like My Defender, Heaven’s Shore and his deep raspy vocals on Awake O Sleeper.

Decided temptations were worthy of their rewards. Instead of being a clean cut soldier you had dreamed of, it all collapses around you. Sometimes you have to be locked up to find true freedom. ~ @dilemmamike Click To Tweet When you should have had your boots on the ground with your brother in arms, you end up behind bars. Shame over pride overtakes David as he fights to get out. Not only out of jail but out of the military. He wanted out on his terms rather than run the risk of smearing his dad’s name, much less his by…gulp… being dishonorably discharged. Through all of this, David was still able to find Christ with him behind the prison bars, amidst his shame. David Mike swore allegiance to his country in 1987, only to be dishonorably discharged for desertion. One bad choice after another landed him at Fort Leavenworth, a notorious military prison in Kansas, where he starts a new life as an inmate. Follow his journey as he claws his way toward […]
