Tim Timmons returns with a new independently released digital single featuring Christian music icon Amy Grant. "I Belong" is premiering today on NewReleaseToday and releasing to all digital outlets tomorrow, Friday, September 21, 2018.
"On your worst day, do you feel like you really belong?" asks Tim. "Belonging is one of the few basic human needs. When we know who and Who’s we are, and live like our identity is secure in Jesus (even on our worst day), then our whole outlook on life changes. This is one of Jesus’ main invitations to the sinner, made saint, that we belong no matter what!"
"Our church community was going through a really dark season dealing with loss, depression, shame, anxiety, etc. Those of us in the midst of the struggle felt compelled to write an anthem for our community that would be our reminder that Jesus had simply invited us to walk with Him and each other through it all. We saw the healing that Jesus brought our community through this song and wanted to share it with the world. With the unending love and nearness of Jesus, there’s always 'hope on the horizon.' Let’s shout out the anthem that our souls have been longing to sing, 'I BELONG!'"
With 2 full-length releases under Provident records, Timmons is known for his raw, honest lyrics that are birthed out of his own personal journey. Diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2001 that doctors said would leave him with only 5 years to live, he learned to lean into Jesus and the unknown and live as if he will be healed. With his health improving 17 years later, he’s defying everyone’s expectations and savoring each day.
