Kari Jobe Essentials

Overwhelming in power, Kari Jobe's crystal-like voice sounds as if it can pierce the sky over her head. Two stunning examples are “Forever” and “Healer,” each utilizing big, sweeping choruses and lovingly etched expressions of devotion. These proclamatory statements are balanced out with confessionals that capture Jobe's personal relationship with the Lord and are informed by the Texas-bred Christian's roots in the contemporary worship scene. Another of her most beloved hits is 2014's “I Am Not Alone,” a ballad in which her voice turns achingly introspective as it weaves itself around piano and strings.
