Kari Jobe Concert

August 15

Enjoy an evening of music and worship with Dove Award winner and singer of "Forever," "We Are," and "Revelation Song."

When Kari Jobe began leading worship at age 13, she never imagined she would be where she is today. She only knew she had a heart for broken people and a deep desire to lead them to the cross.

But today, Kari has become a trusted friend to her listeners through a career that includes more than 1 million albums sold, a GRAMMY® nomination, multiple Dove Awards and praise from the New York Times.

Beyond the stats, Kari’s timeless songs have carried countless listeners to the feet of Christ over and over again. Her voice has become a soundtrack to people’s lives, and her latest release, The Garden, is well-equipped to continue leading people into God’s presence and bring healing and hope in the midst of pain.
