Elefante has partnered with Online for Life, an educational non-profit working to rescue babies from abortion so they can live to make their mark on the world. Since the video's release, both Elefante and Online for Life have been inundated with messages from those that were touched, affected, and in some cases, changed by the video. In one particular case, a young girl in dire straits decided not to abort her baby.
"This Time" as well as Elefante's new album "On my Way to the Sun" are available now at iTunes, Amazon and www.johnelefante.com. Produced by Elefante, the 10-track album is available now from Kingheir Music, Elevate Entertainment and Syntax Distribution.
The 4X GRAMMY Award winner and 5X Dove Award winner is best known for his time as the lead vocalist for the multi-platinum rock outfit Kansas.

In addition to Kansas and his solo work, Elefante's extensive resume includes writing and performance contributions on more than 100 albums that shaped popular American music. In 1993, Elefante and his brother Dino founded Sound Kitchen in Franklin, Tennessee, which quickly became the largest recording studio in the southeast and an instant draw for such top acts as Bruce Springsteen, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Natalie Grant, Amy Grant, Keith Urban, Third Day, Jewel, Jimmy Buffett, Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Brad Paisley and many more.
