Read what critics have to say about Worthy Of Your Name:
“…with albums as good as this, not only is it hard to find a weak spot or a let down, it’s also hard to separate the music from the worship experienced while listening. Given that, this is a great album, prompting focus, worship, and heartfelt praise.” – Church Mag
“Most of your favorite Passion Conference worship leaders are back with another big, bright outpouring of already or soon-to-be worship standards from this year’s final conference at the old Georgia Dome.” – Worship Leader
“When you’ve got the likes of Crowder, Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, and even a sit-in guest such as Hillsong UNITED, you expect the name of Christ to be sung and proclaimed to deafening levels. Emotional, passionate, reverent, and heart-felt are words best described by the contents on this edition” – CCM Magazine
“Worthy Of Your Name is a solid worship album that celebrates freedom in Christ and captures the faith-filled atmosphere of the live Passion conference while turning listeners' hearts to God.” – Today’s Christian Entertainment
“These are songs that remind us of the cross. They are songs that keep Jesus at the centre. They are songs that musically are of a very high quality, well mixed so that you can hear the crowd singing too, and they are songs that as you listen to them will fill you with joy and make you want to sing.” – All 4 God

About Passion
From its start in 1995, Passion has been rooted in the confession of Isaiah 26:8 – Yes Lord, walking in the way of Your truth we wait eagerly for You, for Your name and Your renown are the desire of our hearts - existing to glorify God by uniting students in worship, prayer and justice for spiritual awakening in this generation. Passion has encountered millions of students and 18-25 year olds, young people whose lives have been transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit. One of the most impactful and stirring aspects of the movement has been the sea of voices uniting together to lift up the name of Jesus, currently helmed by Kristian Stanfill, Brett Younker and Melodie Malone. The band has seen worship leaders such as Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, Crowder, Christy Nockels and more unite over the years, writing, recording and leading arenas in worship. Transcending the conferences, songs from Passion have become some of the most recognizable and unforgettable worship anthems of this generation. With more than 1.8 million units sold and a multitude of chart-topping singles such as “How Great Is Our God,” “God Of This City,” “One Thing Remains,” “Even So Come,” and “10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord),” listeners across the world continue to be impacted by the music of Passion. Delivering new projects annually, songs from records such as Here For You, White Flag, Let The Future Begin, Take It All, Even So Come and Salvation’s Tide Is Rising have become timeless staples in the Church. Their newest offering, Worthy Of Your Name, is available now. The four-time Dove Award winners have had eight albums debut at No. 1 on Billboard’s Christian Albums Chart with two hitting the Top 5 on the Billboard 200. Through it all, Jesus continues to remain at the center. Passion is more than music. More than events. Passion is a generation living for His name.
