Jamie has a passion to lead others into the manifest presence of God. “Music is a spiritual medium,” says Jamie. “We perceive and receive music not just with our ears but with our spirits.

Good Music is With Us| Posted October 13, 2014
Jamie Nunnally wades into the crowded CCM pop/rock ocean with peppy confidence in his latest release, God is With Us. Solid opener "Jealous For Me" displays just enough crunchy guitars and poppy chants to polish off the solid chorus and create a definite radio hopeful. The title track follows next, applying a similar formula to produce catchy and upbeat hooks that help make the album smooth and enjoyable.
"We Are Yours" is another standout, blending soft balladry with an anthemic chorus to create one of the album's more dynamic offerings. The subtle little touches here help this track shoot for its potential, from a quiet guitar riff to a vocal performance from Nunnally that packs in a bit more emotion. And lyrically, the song is also a standout: "We are the seekers / we are chasing after you / we are relentless / we'll never cease in our pursuit / we are an army / our weapons are the ways of love / we are expecting / to see Your kingdom flood the earth / we are Yours."
Nunnally proves himself capable of seamless transitions between soft worship and energizing choral highs. In contrast to the energy of the early tracks sits "You Are Wonderful," which carries some spine-tingling verses that perfectly find the intriguing territory in the laid-back musical field.
Closing Thoughts:
Jamie Nunnally has a solid album here with something enjoyable found in every track. Planted solidly in vertical worship, there's plenty here to point to Christ as well. All in all, there's pretty much everything you'd expect from a good worship record thrown in here and delivered with an earnest zeal, leaving Nunnally as a name to watch.
