On Friday (May 9), Grammy-nominated artist Forrest Frank dropped his latest album, “Child of God II.”

“Child of God II” is Frank’s followup to his seventh studio album “Child of God,” which received overwhelming praise from fans and topped the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart for nearly 18 weeks.

In addition to Frank’s Grammy nomination, he was nominated in 2024 for three Billboard music awards. He also won GMA Dove Awards for New Artist of the Year and Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year. Frank has been nominated for Artist of the Year and Male Artist of the Year at this year’s K-LOVE Fan Awards.

The album’s opening track, titled “Encore,” sets the tone for listeners. The track is a two-minute prelude that showcases a conversation Frank has with his grandfather in which the elder Frank tells his grandson how delighted he is that God has chosen the artist to share the gospel with the younger generation.

“Well, I’m so delighted, I can’t express,” Frank’s grandfather says. “God has given you special job and we’re just delighted, we’re more so delighted that God has selected you to reach out to this younger generation.”

Frank’s grandfather proceeds to pray for his grandson, saying:

Father, I’ve been praying that Forrest would experience the Book of Acts and that there will be just unbelievable movement of your Spirit upon these people. First of all, to bring them to an encounter of Jesus, to be saved. Father, we would not object if you do some amazing [healing work] and all kinds of interesting things that are described in the Book of Acts. So we just pray your anointing, double anointing on Forrest…”

“Child of God II” features 20 new tracks, including Frank’s current singles “Your Way’s Better,” “Drop!,” “Nothing Else,” ”Celebration,” “No L’s,” and “Amen.” The album also includes collaborations with Thomas Rhett, Nathan Davis Jr., and Limoblaze.

The eight-minute track features Frank sharing his personal testimony of how God saved him. It also includes Frank giving the gospel and paves a way for listeners to accept Jesus as their personal savior.

Frank, who just turned 30 last month, is finishing up his Child of God Tour Part II, which has sold out in all 26 cities.
