NASHVILLE, TENN – Multi-platinum selling group Casting Crowns holds the position as Billboard’s top selling act in Christian music since 2007. They wrapped up 2013 with three GRAMMY® nods and a RIAA 2x multi-Platinum certification, multiple RIAA Gold certifications and more. But when it comes to the heart and soul of Casting Crowns (who recently celebrated 10 years together), the root of their message is to share the gospel and disciple believers to not just survive in life, but to thrive. In conjunction with the mission, the band is premiering the emotionally powerful song “Broken Together” off their latest record Thrive. The video premieres today, May 20th, 2014 on Focus On The Family’s homepage and social pages. Check out the video here:
