This collaborative effort from songwriters, artists, producers, and session players of Alethia Church has been made possible because of a woman with a dream. Heather Gray, who after losing her husband to the war in Afghanistan, founded Finish Strong Ministries who's mission is to promote the positive message of the good news of Jesus and to encourage people that no matter what has happened in your life or what you have done, it's never too late to finish strong! This album is named "Beautiful Mess" because it represents a group of artists that don't have it all together. But they have learned in whom to put their trust when life gets messy and out of control. In God their Savior, Jesus Christ. Even though the genres of music are spread through a vast array of styles, this album finds unity in its message. To hope in something greater than yourself. To seek hard after the God who created you and loves you. The truths found in the lyrics of each song focus on praise, worship, heartbreak, desperation and surrender. If we can learn to do these things and humbly approach our Savior acknowledging our need for Him, then we truly can finish strong.
