The Story Behind the Album

Where Freedom Lives is a collection of songs that thoughtfully and powerfully explore the deep questions of the human heart: Who am I? Where do I belong? Is Jesus real? Where can I find true freedom?

Curated by Alpha USA in collaboration with GRAMMY®-Award-winning worship leader and songwriter Matt Redman, this debut release from Alpha USA Music features original songs from music artists rooted in vibrant local churches across the nation — communities that have pioneered the Alpha course in their own contexts.

More than just music, Where Freedom Lives is a spiritual companion for the Alpha journey — a soundtrack for those navigating life’s biggest questions.

Whether you’re exploring faith for the first time or returning to it with fresh eyes, these songs offer hope, belonging, and an invitation to discover true freedom where Jesus lives.

The Team behind the Music

This project is the result of a collaboration from music artists across the country, each bringing their own voice, story, and sound to the table. United by a desire to bring a soundtrack to the journey of searching for faith, these songs were not born just from studios but from lived experience.

Attend an Alpha

Alpha is a series of conversations about things we all question in life: Why do bad things happen to good people? What’s the purpose of life? What’s next?

If you’re looking for a judgment-free space to ask hard questions and share your own opinion, there’s a place for you.

All sessions start with a time to connect, followed by a short talk and discussion. No question is off-limits, and you’ll never feel any pressure.
