This Open Hands (Fair Trade Services) cd by Laura Story is inspirational and uplifting.
This is Grammy Award Winning, Laura Story's fifth full length album. Her music is a personal journey of reflection and honesty. In this cd Laura features 11 new songs and also teams up with fellow Grammy winner Mac Powell of Third Day for the feature track.
This billboard topping cd is a pleasure to listen and reflect to.
"Open Hands is something I've been learning on so many different levels," shares Story. "The crazier life gets, the more this idea of 'open hands' became the theme that God was teaching me. Worship in its very core begins with surrender. That's how we really show God that He's worth it all."

About
Laura Story
GRAMMY®
award winning artist, speaker, songwriter, author and worship leader Laura
Story has a gift for penning songs that connect with people all around the
world. Among her successes as a solo artist with her smash hits “Mighty to Save”
and “Blessings,” Laura has also penned hit songs for other renowned artists
including Chris Tomlin’s “Indescribable.” Her solo artist music debut in 2008
with Great
God Who Saves led to four Dove nominations and the award for
“Inspirational Album of the Year.” In 2011, Laura released her sophomore
project Blessings.
The album and the emotionally powerful title was inspired by her real life
trials and adversities, primarily her husband Martin's diagnosis of a brain
tumor. The album resonated with a huge audience and led to whirlwind career
highlights for Laura, peaking at the No. 1 album spot for three consecutive
weeks on Billboard’s Contemporary Christian Overall chart, topping the iTunes®
Christian/Gospel Top Songs chart and holding the No. 1 spot for an impressive
28 consecutive weeks on the Christian charts. The success of the single
“Blessings,” which was certified RIAA Gold, includes the GRAMMY® Award for Best
Contemporary Christian Song, the Billboard Music Award for Top Christian Song
and the Dove Awards for Song of the Year, Pop/Contemporary Song of the Year,
Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year and Songwriter of the Year. The song
inspired Laura's first book, “What If Your Blessings Come Through Raindrops?”
in 2012. God
Of Every Story released in 2013 to much acclaim, and her first ever
Christmas project God With Us, released in October of 2015. Laura
recently released a new book and bible study curriculum When God Doesn’t Fix It; Lessons You Never Wanted to Learn, Truths You
Can’t Live Without. She has a graduate degree from Covenant
Theological Seminary and has served as a worship leader at Perimeter Church in
Atlanta since 2005, but her greatest joy is being a wife to Martin and the
mother to Ben, Griffin and Josie.
