Steve Angrisano

Steve Angrisano is one of the best musical evangelists in the Church today. A 20-year youth-ministry veteran with hundreds of events under his belt, he's mastered the art of drawing people -- young and old -- into an encounter with God.

Reveals the planning behind Steve's powerful events
Balancing exuberance and intimacy, he creates an atmosphere that opens hearts -- and fosters conversion. How does he do it? Essential Songs: A Road-Tested Resource for Youth Ministry brings you "behind the curtain," revealing the planning and prayer behind Steve's powerful events.

Music for 37 popular praise and worship songs
The book provides music for 37 of the most popular contemporary Christian songs (melody and text with guitar chords). Familiar from youth event and camp settings, they include hits by Steve, Matt Maher, Jesse Manibusan, and Tom Booth.

Includes all the best hand-gesture and call-and-response numbers
All the best call-and-response and hand-gesture songs are here -- "Trading My Sorrows," "Pharaoh, Pharaoh" -- as well as now-classic songs by CCM greats Chris Tomlin, Tim Hughes, and many others.

The four stages of a successful event
Steve outlines four distinct stages of a successful event: warm-up, transition, prayer and celebration. He explains each stage in detail in the introduction, then gives additional advice in the performance notes. Songs are organized according to use (e.g., warm-up songs appear within that section).

Practical tips for developing "craft" and "transparency"
Writing in a candid, casual style, Steve says there are two things every presenter needs: transparency and craft. Built on personal prayer, transparency is allowing God to speak and work through us. Craft is the skill-set behind leading a group, telling a story and singing a song. Steve gives practical tips for developing both.

Resource book for event leaders, words-only edition for attendees
Designed for event leaders, the spiral-bound Resource Book features handy section tabs, making it easy to flip to the songs you need, and a dry-erase planning guide for your set list. Event-goers can use the affordable words-only edition to follow along. This handy booklet includes complete lyrics for all 37 songs.

His new CD shows what a great event sounds like
What does a great event look and sound like? Steve's new CD, Live: Songs from the Road, recorded in concert, features 14 tracks from Essential Songs. It's a great illustration of what can happen when you apply these principles.

Helps youth ministers prepare their own faith-building events
"It's my great desire," Steve says, "to pass along a little bit of what I've learned through the years, traveling and speaking with young people." Essential Songs does just that, and more. An invaluable resource -- the first of its kind! -- it gives youth ministers everything they need to prepare their own faith-building events.

This is the guitar/unison accompaniment book for Mass of a Joyful Heart, a revised Mass setting by Steve Angrisano and Tom Tomaszek.

Worship with joyful enthusiasm
Originally commissioned for the National Catholic Youth Conference, the revised edition of this beloved contemporary Mass setting captures the spirit of the young Church with fun, upbeat rhythms and accessible melodies filled with joyous enthusiasm.

Combine familiar themes with new additions
Working closely with pastoral musicians to create a singable and approachable piece of music, Steve and Tom have combined familiar themes with new elements that faithfully present the new Roman Missal. They have also added a setting for the Penitential Act, a Lenten Gospel Acclamation, as well as a simple approach for all Gospel acclamation verses!

Steve's first album offers contemporary songs that tap the often-hidden spirituality in all of us, songs that challenge us to be agents of positive change in the world.

Created in collaboration with Tom Tomaszek, Make a Difference is well-produced, rhythmic, funky and jazzy, mixing spirited pop tracks and gorgeous, wispy ballads. Highlights include "My Soul Is Thirsting" and the ever-popular "Go, Make a Difference," with its irresistible refrain and hand movements -- familiar to those who've witnessed Steve's inspiring performances at World Youth Days and other events.

The collection includes three psalm settings and Steve's beautifully composed contemporary Mass setting, Mass of a Joyful Heart.

Steve dedicates the songs to "all the youthful voices" he has met and the difference they have made in his life and in the life of the Church. "I believe God gives us the tools and the vision to make miracles happen in this world," he says. "We are challenged every day to turn up our collar in the face of adversity and walk on. No matter what."

Foster spiritual renewal
Inspired by each other's music and their common approach to ministry, these three generations of Catholic songwriters embarked on the Age to Age: Generations of Faith concert tour, to join whole communities in spiritual renewal. Bring the experience of these events into your daily life with this unique and varied collection of anthems.

Join in a sung tapestry of prayer
From beloved titles you know by heart—including covers from each composer—to fresh arrangements of future classics such as "Many and One," "Ready the Way" and "These Alone Are Enough"—uniting all three artists in song—Age to Age highlights the enduring themes of faith, hope and love through a sung tapestry of prayer.

Experience three powerful voices, one powerful faith
Leaving behind their categories of youth, liturgical and contemporary, Steve Angrisano, Dan Schutte and Curtis Stephan come together to share their music with one another and with the Church... three powerful voices, one powerful faith.

Also available as an MP3 playlist.

Tracks: Many and One | Take Up Our Cross | Ready the Way | A Time Will Come for Singing | Falling Into You | Give Us Faith, Lord | Plow Your Row | These Alone Are Enough | Mighty King | O God, Be the Music | Benediction | We Live to Love

Inspired by the live performances of a beloved artist
Steve Angrisano is one of spiritandsong.com's most successful artists at not only reaching youth and young adults, but the wider Church as a whole. Born out of doing more than 100 events per year, Steve's preaching and message from those events are the underpinnings for the songs found on Inescapable Love.

His most collaborative album yet
His most collaborative album yet -- featuring songs co-written by Sarah Hart, Marc Byrd, Audrey Assad and Dwight Liles -- Steve delivers a wide array of songs sure to become liturgical and praise and worship classics... as well as a couple of surprises. Elements of bluegrass really come through with fiddle and dobro (yes, dobro) making appearances on an album that pays subtle homage to Steve's Southern roots.

Captures experiences we struggle to put into words
Comprised of 11 diverse originals and a cover fans will instantly recognize from his live shows, Inescapable Love builds upon Steve's ability to capture the profound, common experiences that we all struggle to put into words.

Great variety of styles
"One Step Away" reminds teens that no matter how far they may feel from God, they truly are just one step away. The down-home country feel of "Plow Your Row" features a beautiful duet with newcomer Audrey Assad. "Living God" -- with its old school 70s rock guitars -- takes you by surprise with a couple of head-banging moments. In his cover of Jared Anderson's "Amazed By You," you can't help but imagine Steve smiling as he sings "Lord, I'm amazed by you. How you love me."

Two new Eucharistic songs!
While best known for his contemporary songs of praise, Steve is also committed to providing the Church with inspiring and valuable liturgical pieces. That commitment is wholly evident in "Many and One" and "We Remember, We Believe," two unforgettable Eucharistic songs. Inescapable Love typifies the totality of Steve's ministry, preaching hope and the closeness of God in our lives.

Tracks: Come and See | Pour Out Your Love | Falling Into You | Living God | Plow Your Row | One Step Away | You Are God | The Lord Will Bless (Psalm 29) | Many and One | All the Glory | We Remember, We Believe | Amazed By You

These songwriters have drawn from Scripture, and the poetry in their own souls, to express the longing, devotion, struggle and joy we all go through on this wild journey called "faith." Highlights include the Daughters of God in a great cover of Carey Landry's "Hail Mary: Gentle Woman" and Val Limar Jansen in a gospel-style rendition of Jaime Cortez's classic "Rain Down."

Don't just stand there. Hear it! Sing it! Live It!

The Angrisano experience -- on CD for the first time!
A true road warrior, Steve Angrisano travels most of the year, bringing his exhilarating ministry to parishes and youth groups from coast to coast. His events change lives: minds open, tears flow, hearts are set on fire for Christ. Now for the first time, the Angrisano experience is available on CD! Recorded in concert, Live: Songs from the Road is as close to the real thing as you can get.

14 classic praise and worship songs recorded live in concert
The disc contains 14 classic songs by a variety of big-time contemporary Christian artists -- Steve's most-requested songs from over the years. Following his standard concert outline, the music moves from riveting warm-ups to more meditative "transition" songs. Steve then brings the audience into a time of prayer and encounter. He closes on a high-note with sending-forth favorites like "Go Make a Difference."

Great music, Steve's trademark humor, a fired-up audience
Live includes all the best elements of an Angrisano event: terrific music, Steve's trademark humor, banter and storytelling between songs, heartfelt prayer, and the enthusiastic participation of his fired-up audience. It's just like being there!

Companion CD for Essential Songs, his new youth ministry resource book
The CD is a companion to Essential Songs: A Road-Tested Resource for Youth Ministry, which gives you music in a text-and-melody format for all 14 of these songs (and 23 others), as well as Steve's expert advice for using them in youth ministry settings.

Re-capture the energy and grace of an Angrisano event
As countless people can attest, God works in amazing ways through Steve and his music. For those who've never experienced an Angrisano event, Live: Songs from the Road is a great introduction. For those who have, it's a great way of recapturing and re-living that grace-filled moment.

Steve's first album offers contemporary songs that tap the often-hidden spirituality in all of us, songs that challenge us to be agents of positive change in the world.

Created in collaboration with Tom Tomaszek, Make a Difference is well-produced, rhythmic, funky and jazzy, mixing spirited pop tracks and gorgeous, wispy ballads. Highlights include "My Soul Is Thirsting" and the ever-popular "Go, Make a Difference," with its irresistible refrain and hand movements -- familiar to those who've witnessed Steve's inspiring performances at World Youth Days and other events.

The collection includes three psalm settings and Steve's beautifully composed contemporary Mass setting, Mass of a Joyful Heart.

Steve dedicates the songs to "all the youthful voices" he has met and the difference they have made in his life and in the life of the Church. "I believe God gives us the tools and the vision to make miracles happen in this world," he says. "We are challenged every day to turn up our collar in the face of adversity and walk on. No matter what."

Pray Your Heart is a remarkable combination of youth ministry resources based on The Catholic Youth Bible. Designed especially to help young Christians deepen their faith, it can enhance prayer and worship for people of all ages. It includes a 16-song CD, songbook, the Youth Bible and a resource manual.

Pray Your Heart CD and Songbook
The Pray Your Heart CD contains some of the best praise and worship music available, performed by some of the biggest names in contemporary Catholic music, including Sarah Hart, Janèt Sullivan Whitaker, Donna Peña, Steve Angrisano, Tom Booth, Jaime Cortez, Jesse Manibusan and Trevor Thomson. It's an eclectic mix of music, with styles ranging from folk, pop and rock to reggae, gospel and salsa.

Featuring 12 contemporary psalm settings from Spirit & Song and other collections, the CD also contains two bilingual Spanish-English songs and four bonus tracks. It's great listening, and it's a wonderful way for young people to experience the poetry and power of the Psalms.

The songbook contains the music for all 16 songs on the CD, with both guitar and keyboard accompaniment parts.

Pray Your Heart Resource Manual
Expertly written and beautifully designed, this leader's guide for youth ministry features discipleship activities, group exercises and study materials for young people. Intended as a supplement to be used in conjunction with both the Pray Your Heart CD and The Catholic Youth Bible, this well-designed book devotes two pages to each of the 12 psalm settings on the CD, listing key verses and themes from the song and suggesting Scripture readings, questions for discussion, activities, and prayers. An indispensible resource for youth ministers.

Vibrant, prayerful and lush, Set Free is more acoustic than Steve's previous collections, arranged with the simple instrumentation of church ensembles in mind. Seven of the 13 songs were composed for use in prayer and liturgy.

That doesn't mean the music holds back. The title track is a jamming pop-rock song celebrating the "God who truly sets us free from the chains that bind us." Both "Sweet Redeemer," co-written with Sarah Hart, and "Keep our Eyes on Jesus," a soulful gospel piece, will get hands clapping.

One highlight is "Daniel's Heart," which shows how the suffering and courage of three Daniels -- the young man from Steve's parish who died in the Columbine shooting, an infant named after him who had open heart surgery, and the biblical Daniel -- united and inspired the communities around them. Steve says this touching song is the best he's ever written.

Spirit & Song: By Request is an eclectic compilation of some of the best-known and most popular contemporary Christian songs of the past few years. Featuring rock, pop and reggae tracks, ballads and innovative remakes of worship standards, By Request is also a sampling of some of the most requested songs in the Spirit & Song songbook.

Many of your favorite artists were involved in the project as songwriters and performers, including Matt Maher, Tom Booth, Jesse Manibusan, Steve Angrisano and others. Highlights include "How Beautiful," a gorgeous ballad featuring Twila Paris on lead vocals and a lush, symphonic accompaniment by the Nashville String Machine: "How beautiful the hands that served the wine and the bread and the sons of the earth." Rich Mullins' classic Christian rock anthem, "Awesome God," is presented here in an edgy rendition by Tom Booth.

Steve Angrisano is one of the best contemporary songwriters around, and his fourth album only adds to the evidence. These 11 songs have already become staples for contemporary liturgies, prayer services, youth group events -- and young people with headphones -- everywhere.

Highlights include three new psalm settings, including "Taste and See," Steve's prayerful, singable, already popular new setting of Psalm 34. "Let Us Go Rejoicing" (Ps 122) is an excellent contemporary setting of this common psalm for Ordinary Time and church dedications and anniversaries.

Live It! fans will recognize "Mighty King," Steve's catchy pop-rock hit from that two-CD compilation. Asking "Why spend your wages for what fails to satisfy?," "Table of Life" is an inspiring Communion song and Steve's invitation to quench our thirst with Christ's life-giving water. Several songs from this collection were selected to be included in Spirit & Song 2.

Steve's superbly crafted songs welcome us to discover God's kingdom in our everyday lives. "Even in the rush and crush, the thunder of this world," he sings in "Follow Me," the exhilarating opening track, "there's a gentle whisper in my heart saying, 'I am your God, there is no other. Follow me!'" Offering a delectable array of guitar-, mandolin- and Hammond organ-spiced praise and worship tracks, Welcome Home helps us hear that gentle whisper and find our way back to God's embrace.

• A ground-breaking release: The first international collection of contemporary Catholic music ever made!
• Features music by well-known Christian artists, including Steve Angrisano, Bobby Fisher, Sarah Hart, Jesse Manibusan and many others
• Two-CD set, with a 20-page booklet, for the price of a single disc

For You Are the Way, Steve put together 10 original songs that celebrate a God who, by becoming one of us, showed us the way to peace and happiness in this broken world. In the words of the title track: "In a world that's movin' fast we seek what will not last; we miss the narrow road. But when we look inside ourselves, we find that no one else but you can make us whole."

This inspiring collection contains some of Steve's most popular songs from his many years in youth ministry, songs that showcase his songwriting prowess, his deep, sincere faith in Jesus and his heart for the poor and suffering.

The title track, with its driving, pop-rock rhythm and familiar refrain, was theme song for a past National Catholic Youth Conference (NCYC). "Pamela" is a sweet prayer-song for one whose pain Steve sees "in your eyes." The album closes with "Jamaican Me Crazy," a contagiously fun reggae number. Buoyed by beach sounds and authentic Caribbean percussion, this playful retelling of Jesus' "Lily of the Fields" discourse reminds us of God's mercy for even the "least of these."

You Are Near is great music with a great message.
