Singer/Songwriter, Worship Leader Chris Whittington Releases Timely New Single, 'God Will Supply All Our Needs'
Singer/songwriter, worship leader, and Texas-based steel industry executive Chris Whittington has released his timely new single, "God Will Supply All Our Needs." The single is the third from his upcoming project, the Bright Portal 10-Year Anniversary Edition, the newly remastered and re-imagined version of Whittington's critically acclaimed debut album, Bright Portal. The new project is slated for a Spring 2025 release.
"God Will Supply All Our Needs" is featured as a bonus track on the Bright Portal 10-Year Anniversary Edition, in addition to all of the cuts from the original album. The song, along with the rest of the album, is produced by CCM pioneer Kemper Crabb, known for his work with Caedmon's Call, Radiohalo, ArkAngel, and the highly rated PBS television special, Downe in Yon Forrest: Christmas from the Middle Ages (with 200 million views, according to Nielsen), which featured Whittington sharing lead vocals with Crabb.
"God Will Supply All Our Needs" is the new single from singer/songwriter, worship leader, and Texas-based steel industry executive Chris Whittington's upcoming project, the Bright Portal 10-Year Anniversary Edition, which is slated for a Spring 2025 release.
Whittington, the owner of Houston-based Whittington Steel, brought in award-winning mastering engineer Bob Boyd (CeCe Winans’ Grammy Award-winning album, Believe For It) to remaster all of the songs featured on the original Bright Portal project. Boyd, a 3-time Grammy, Dove, and Juno Award winner who also mastered "God Will Supply All Our Needs," has created a sonic collection that truly shines.
"God Will Supply All Our Needs" taps into Whittington's rock roots and displays the signature guitar and unique instrumentation that his listeners have come to expect. It features a Beatlesque vocal blend and an infectious melody that listeners will carry with them from the first chord.
Whittington wrote the song during the 2008 financial crisis. It is based on Luke 12:27-31, where Jesus compares how His Father God cares for the beautiful lilies of the field to how He desires to care for us.
"God Will Supply All Our Needs" was heavily influenced by the poverty that Whittington, his mother, and his five siblings experienced growing up in the 70s in Houston, Texas, after his business executive father abandoned the family.
“I learned first-hand that no matter how bleak things looked, I could truly trust God to supply all my needs," says Whittington. “As difficult as it was to live through, it taught me not to be afraid-God would always take care of me and my loved ones. And I have been able to share that message with others in full confidence.”
Whittington will be launching his Bright Portal 10-Year Anniversary Edition campaign at the NRB 2025 convention in Grapevine, Texas, where he will be meeting with media outlets and industry leaders from around the world.
"The National Religious Broadcasters Association is an amazing organization, and their annual NRB conference is always impacting in every area of the Media and Broadcast world," says Whittington. "I am thrilled to be introducing the Bright Portal 10-Year Anniversary Edition at NRB 2025."
