Small Town Sunday Launches “STS Congregation” Partnership Program to Strengthen Ministry Impact

[Bessemer City, NC] — 3/1/26 — Christian & Country group Small Town Sunday is excited to officially announce the launch of its brand-new partnership initiative, the STS Congregation—a program designed to bring fans, supporters, and churches closer to the heart of the ministry while helping expand its reach.

The STS Congregation offers individuals and families the opportunity to partner monthly with Small Town Sunday through three giving tiers—Silver, Gold, and Platinum—as well as one-time contributions. This program was created to provide a simple and meaningful way for supporters to invest in the mission of spreading the Gospel through country music.

"UNTIL YOU LOVE JESUS" RELEASES

Small Town Sunday announces the release of their poignant new single, "Until You Love Jesus." This powerful ballad explores themes of faith, loss, and the unwavering love of Jesus Christ.

The song, penned by Matthew Branch, Randy Maynor, Jordan Burks, and Jesse Shuster, captures the essence of searching for meaning and finding solace in faith. The song's message is clear: even in the darkest moments, hope and healing are possible through a relationship with Christ. The raw emotion in the lyrics is amplified by Small Town Sunday's signature blend of Christian music with a country influence. Jeremy Medkiff's expressive guitar work, Duncan Mullins' grounding bass lines, Jonathan Brown's soulful piano melodies, and Chris Knight's steady drum rhythms create a rich and moving soundscape.

The lyrics of "Until You Love Jesus" paint a vivid picture of struggle and redemption: Out of breath, can’t breathe, faith unraveling At the seam, you’re holding on by a string In your broken, in your hurt It’s hard to know your worth When you’re desperate to believe… The song's powerful chorus offers a message of hope: When you know the One who feels the pain that you’re going through When you finally see the masterpiece He still sees in you When you realize how deep and wide and far His mercy reaches It won’t be long, no it won’t be long Until you love Jesus…
