Award-winning artist Laura Story will be coming to Birmingham on March 9 for a concert at Shades Mountain Baptist Church, Vestavia Hills. Story’s chart-topping hits include “Blessings,” “Indescribable” and her new single “Open Hands” featuring Mac Powell of Third Day.
Sponsored by the Samford Legacy League, the concert’s proceeds will go toward scholarships for students with significant financial need and challenging circumstances.
Book inspiration
Story was awarded a Grammy for Best Contemporary Christian Music Song in 2012 for “Blessings” which inspired her first book, “What If Your Blessings Come Through Raindrops,” a collection of daily devotions. In her most recent book, “When God Doesn’t Fix It: Lessons You Never Wanted to Learn, Truths You Can’t Live Without,” Story shares her journey of faith during her husband’s illness.
‘Minister with song’
Grammy Award-winning artist and New York Times bestselling author Steven Curtis Chapman said of Story, “I’ve sat on stage and watched Laura minister with song to those who are hurting, and I know the story of her life will help to heal many more who are struggling with their own brokenness. Together our family has been ministered to by her vulnerability and willingness to walk in the valley and still say ‘God, I Trust You.’”
Since 2005, Story has served as the worship leader at Perimeter Church in Atlanta where she lives with her husband, Martin, and their three children, Ben, Griffin and Josie.
The concert will begin at 7 p.m. VIP tickets, which include premium seating, a pre-concert reception and a photo with Story, are available.
