Following the group's comprehensive ten-year retrospective, MercyMe returns from the studio with a fresh set of captivating anthems of worship and adult contemporary radio gems. The Generous Mr. Lovewell features Bart Millard's penetrating lyrics on eleven powerful originals, including the #1 hit single "All of Creation."

The Generous Mr. Lovewell revolves around a fictional character we created who reminds us that we simply need to love others well. For some of us, it means that we need to put hands and feet on our ideology and rhetoric. For others, it means that we need to continue in doing well, but to not stop there. We need to let people know why we are called to make a difference. Our prayer is that this album would mobilize the body of Christ to encourage people in word and deed.

It's almost like a 'pay-it-forward' idea that revolves around the Cross. We are called to be servants to our neighbors, but if we don't share the gospel with them, it's almost offensive and we have only accomplished a part of what God has called us to do. We need to stop letting the world teach us theology about how to act or speak. We need to encourage one another to provide a helping hand to our neighbor, offer up random acts of kindness and share with others how our lives have been transformed by the power of the Cross. It doesn't take much action - or even many words - to make a difference both here and forever.

- Bart Millard, MercyMe
