The song made the Billboard Music Christian Rock Most Added chart for the third\u00a0time in April, and is currently #1 on the Sort Hits Chart for 2017. We are very thankful! The program directors and others at the radio stations have been unbelievably kind to us, and there are not enough words to properly thank them. We have also completed initial filming on\u00a0a video for the song as a surprise our listeners\u00a0(a photo from the shoot is below).\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1543\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jdouglaswright.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_2996.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2996\" width=\"1843\" height=\"1089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jdouglaswright.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_2996.jpg 1843w, https:\/\/www.jdouglaswright.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_2996-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jdouglaswright.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_2996-768x454.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jdouglaswright.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_2996-1024x605.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1843px) 100vw, 1843px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Project<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the future, we have been working on a new album since August, and it looks like we are on schedule to have it ready by the end of the year.
