Turning heads with its undeniably infectious groove, "Just As You Are," the latest single from GRAMMY-nominated, Dove Award-winning singer/songwriter Ryan Stevenson, and finds the Gotee recording artist entering a new era of creative freedom.
"One of my favorite authors, Brennan Manning, who wrote The Ragamuffin Gospel and Abba's Child, once gave a powerful message on the Gospel," Stevenson explains of the song's inspiration. "Sharing as if God was speaking directly to him, he said, 'God loves you, just as you are, not as you should be; because none of us are as we should be.' That was a profound statement for me, and one that has since shaped my perspective about God as well as the way I perceive others."
"I believe this is paramount in understanding the Truth about the finished work of Jesus," Stevenson adds. "His sacrifice made a way for us—not our own efforts and striving. Knowing that HE began a good work, we can take a deep breath and rest because He is faithful to His word to perform it."
