Casting Crowns Frontman Mark Hall Talks Blending Music and Ministry on New Album ‘Healer’

You never own your faith as much as when you are giving it away to other people,' says frontman Mark Hall.

During the pandemic Casting Crowns frontman Mark Hall had more on his mind than just writing songs for the Grammy-winning band’s next album. As a youth pastor for more than two decades, Hall’s priority was shepherding the young people at his Georgia church during these tumultuous times. But as has always happened throughout Casting Crowns’ multi-platinum career, music and ministry intersected to fuel the band’s new album, Healer.

Healer features seven tracks, and Hall says the band is nearing completion of the second part of the album, which will be released this spring. His intent was to give people more time to digest these songs before releasing the remainder of the record. “People seem to have a new record come out and a month later [fans] are like, ‘Hey when do you have something new coming?’ People go through music so fast,” he says. “These songs need some time to live…I’m talking about real-life stuff, and the fact without Jesus we’re in trouble. When you’re giving hope to people that you know need hope, you want to make sure that they are hearing everything you are saying so I thought we needed to space this out.”
