Today marks the release of Jeremy Camp's latest album, Speaking Louder Than Before. With three RIAA Gold albums and more than 3.5 million albums sold, Camp, who has always been solidly devoted to his Christian faith and sharing that with fans, steps out of entertainer mode even more to emphasis to fans the importance of getting back to the basics of the faith.

Yup, went to a Christian concert on Tuesday so I don't have to read my Bible. Went to church on Sunday so I don't have to pray. That's not what a relationship with Christ is all about.
Jeremy found a way to make this project not just about songs by creativing video devotionals that go along with the tracks on the album, all designed to share a spiritual truth and challenge people to dig into God's word for themselves.
