Another single titled “For God Is With Us” received a K-LOVE Fan award this year as the Song of the Year. In his acceptance speech, Joel Smallbone said:
“We’re all faced with a lot: with what’s going on in Uvalde, with what’s going on in Eastern Europe. And I think the question we all continue to ask ourselves is the rightful question, ‘What do we do?’ And you want to sort of pick up arms, you want to become the activist, you want to shake your fists, you want to get out there. <…> But I want to quote the great late saint, Mother Teresa, as, maybe, the paramount priority of what we could do as we step forward as a family and as humanity. She said this simply, ‘If you want to change the world — go home, love your family.’”
