Kari Jobe

Kari Jobe is an American Christian singer-songwriter known as one of the leading voices in contemporary worship music. She has built her career primarily within the worship-music tradition, serving as a worship leader alongside her husband, singer-songwriter Cody Carnes, at Gateway Worship, where the two often lead together and co-write songs.

Her music is rooted in modern worship and gospel-influenced pop and rock, marked by soaring, emotive vocals and anthemic, congregation-friendly arrangements designed for corporate worship settings. Songs such as «Revelation Song», «Healer», and «The Blessing» have become staples in churches, showcasing her ability to blend intimate, devotional lyricism with big, uplifting production.

Many of her best-known recordings, including live versions of «First Love», «Forever», and «Your Nature», capture the live-worship-album format that defines much of her catalog, recorded in congregational settings that emphasize communal singing. Kari Jobe remains a prominent and influential figure within the contemporary Christian and worship music scene.
