Musician - Josh Bales
Josh Bales is a singer/songwriter originally from Chattanooga, TN. Formerly the Director of Worship and Music at Grace Presbyterian near Chicago, IL, he is currently the Artist in Residence at Seven Rivers Presbyterian Church while also studying theology at Reformed Theological Seminary.
Josh travels throughout the year as singer/songwriter and worship leader to various venues around the country including churches, colleges, pubs and even living rooms.
In 2004 Josh's song "I Need You" was recorded by The Swift and can be heard on Christian radio stations all over the country. As a performer Josh aims to write songs that reflect reality in creative, honest, and redemptive ways (not sugar coating the evil in life, nor ignoring the good). As a leader of worship Josh's ministry aims to engage the people of God in biblically thoughtful worship, connecting the worship of historical church with the worship of today's church.
