When David Leonard and Leslie Jordan formed the musical group “All Sons and Daughters,” they wanted to choose a name that served as a personal reflection of their identity in Christ.
Their group name is based on 2 Corinthians 6:18: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”
With songs such as “Great Are You Lord,” “Oh How I Need You” and “All the Poor and Powerless” becoming a staple among contemporary worship services across the country, this acoustic duo is making an impression on young worshippers through well-crafted lyrics and deep theological truths.
“Every song we write comes from a Scripture or prayer,” Jordan said. “When I was in college, I began to fall in love with worship music. When I started leading worship, I was able to see the beauty of how these songs helped connect people to God.”
While impacting churches across the country with their engaging songs, the duo has been named Worship Leader Magazine’s “most enchanting sound emerging in the worship genre.” In an effort to assist fellow musicians and worship leaders, their song charts are available for free on their website.
Leonard said, “We really want to be intentional and want our songs to be an extension of the local church. We also want to give people the tools and resources that will allow them to dive in and find the truth of who God is.”
As they tour around the world and share songs from their self-titled album, the duo hopes to encourage students and young adults to find their role in God’s story.
Present and available
Jordan said, “God is setting up something beautiful with His story. Each season of life is always leading to the next season, so we really want to be present, be available and be in the moment when we are leading worship and be sensitive to how the Holy Spirit is moving.”
