We believe this concert will bring salvation, healing, unity, and freedom to individuals and families all over Central Illinois. Houghton’s current album, “Jesus At The Center,” debuted on multiple Billboard Charts and was named by Worship Leader Magazine as one of the Top 15 Worship albums of the decade. Houghton currently serves as a worship leader at Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church in Houston, TX.
