Christian Artists Take Life-Changing Tour to Big Screen
By Movieguide® Contributor
Christian artists Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham have just announced FOR THE ONE, an upcoming documentary following the pair on tour.
“Over the past year we’ve been capturing the stories on God’s heart through documenting our own journeys, and the @summerworshipnights Tour,” Lake wrote on Instagram. “Music, vision, worship, and community, FOR THE ONE weaves the songs and the passion of myself and my hero, @philwickham into this tour documentary.”
A synopsis of FOR THE ONE calls it “a groundbreaking film that journeys through the stories that gave flight to the Summer Worship Nights tour.”
“A triumph of music, vision, worship, and community, FOR THE ONE weaves the songs and the passion of Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham into an unforgettable tour documentary,” the description continues.
In a statement about the project, Wickham said, “Never in my life did I think I would be a part of telling a piece of my story in theaters. I hope the stories encountered through this movie show everyone watching how much they are loved by the ONE. I can’t wait to share this with the world and I hope people are encouraged by it.”
Lake echoed his enthusiasm, saying, “My hope for this project is that it would not only show what it takes to go on tour, but why the music and touring mean so much to us. Countless lives have been changed, especially ours. Though we’ve had the opportunity to influence many, our focus remains FOR THE ONE.”
FOR THE ONE will premiere in theaters Oct. 27.
Movieguide® previously reported on another collaboration between Lake and Wickham:
Christian worship artist Phil Wickham and multi-time Grammy award winner Brandon Lake have partnered together to create a new song called “Love of God.”
“It’s Brandon and Phil, and we’ve got a brand new song for you,” Lake said in their announcement video.
“Yeah, it’s called ‘Love of God.’ You guys, this is a modern hymn that we wrote together with our buddies Cody Carnes and Benjamin William Hastings,” Wickham added. “We cannot wait to sing this on tour and with our churches, and we hope that it might be a blessing for all of you and all your communities.
He continued, “It’s filled with so much truth. Our hearts are bursting. We just finished a music video. Cannot wait for you to hear it. Sing it. Hope it’s a blessing.”
